About this property

Welcome to Collier's Motel

Collier's Motel is a modest, independently operated motel located on Bardstown Road in Louisville, offering straightforward accommodations with a practical focus. The property features single-level rooms with direct outdoor access, which appeals to guests seeking easy unloading and convenient parking, as the motel provides free parking on-site. The rooms are air-conditioned and the entire property maintains a smoke-free environment, although there are no onsite dining, fitness, or pool facilities available.

With a rating of 3.9 from 46 reviews, Collier's Motel receives mixed but generally positive feedback. Several guests highlight the cleanliness and comfort of the rooms along with the friendly and accommodating staff, appreciating the motel’s affordability and quiet setting. However, some reviews point out that the décor is dated and certain areas, particularly bathrooms, could benefit from updates and improved cleanliness. The customer service experience has also been described as inconsistent by some guests.

Positioned roughly 26 minutes by car from Louisville International Airport, the motel provides convenient access for travelers. Visitors interested in family-friendly attractions will find nearby points of interest such as the Louisville Zoo, Louisville Mega Cavern, and Kentucky Kingdom & Hurricane Bay within easy reach. This location is suitable for visitors focused on sightseeing, recreation, and getting around the city without unnecessary extras.

Collier's Motel caters primarily to budget-conscious travelers, festival attendees, or those who prefer the simplicity and practicality of a traditional motel over a larger, full-service hotel. With all rooms on the ground floor, it is notably accommodating for guests with mobility considerations. The quiet and peaceful location just off I-264 offers a more relaxed environment compared to downtown Louisville motels, making it a reasonable choice for overnight stays in the area.

The Rooms Are Cheap. but That's a Good Thing! but, Because They Are So Cheap, U Get What U Paid For. The Rooms Could Be a Little More Updated! Everything in the Rooms looks Like it's From the 70's. It Could Be a Whole Lot Cleaner. ESPECIALLY In The Bathrooms. The Customers Service is Not That Good at All. The Clerk Had an Attitude The Entire Time & Everytime I Asked a Question He Got Smart or Huffed & Puffrd as If I Was Getting on His Nerves! Doubt if Me or, My Family Will Be Checking In to That Hotel EVER AGAIN!

Stayed here for the Louder than Life festival and we were very happy with the room. The customer service was also exceptional I even received a call from the owner 2 days after we left warning me that Booking.com was trying to charge me a second time. Would definitely recommend

If you don't love exploring the dying motels of yore, you will not like Colliers. BUT, if you're like me, and love seeing all the charm that comes with these cool old time capsules, then this is the place for you. Customer service is excellent. The staff were super accommodating. I booked online, but you still need cash for the deposit. No other motels were able to guarantee me a room on the ground floor, which is extremely important for me as a disabled person. I prefer motels over hotels because i won't have to worry about walking for 5 minutes through a maze of hallways. All rooms here are ground level, so no worries about that. It's also so much easier to unload your stuff when your car is right outside the door. I was booking for that night and all other motels wanted to charge me at least $100. The room here was $70. Idk why others are complaining about the price. Way more affordable and accommodating than any other motel that sends you to a person that's not even located in the US if you need to call and ask for special accommodations. You won't even be able to talk to anyone at the actual location. This is probably one of the last independently owned motels in Louisville, and I love supporting small businesses. It's a bit off the main path, but it is on Bardstown Rd, which is a straight shot off of I 264. Super quiet and peaceful, compared to places closer to the city. Make sure to bring cash for the deposit, even if you booked online!

For the price, this was a very neat and clean place to stay. It's very quiet, not a lot of traffic or people
