What we now affectionately call the “Romeo and Juliet Balcony” at the Seelbach Hilton actually served as the manager’s office of the Rathskeller German Beer Hall in the early 1900s. One can only imagine what was witnessed from this window. From F. Scott Fitzgerald to Top Chef’s Padma Lakshmi, these pottery-laden walls have seen it all.
Guarded by hand painted Rookwood tiles and wood carvings of mysterious faces, this window is just another must-see hidden gem of Louisville’s Seelbach Hilton Hotel.

“The Cutler mail chutes flourished during the advent of the first multi-story buildings in the turn of the 20th century. The invention was fairly simple: the glass chutes would run internally the length of the building, with a mailing slot on each floor. . . In an era when people were sending handfuls of letters each day, the convenience of the Cutler mail chute was a godsend.”
Our authentic 1905 Cutler Mail Chute offers a taste of the past with the simple drop of letter through a mail slot.

The Grand Ballroom, immortalized by F. Scott Fitzgerald in The Great Gatsby’s as the wedding locale of Tom and Daisy Buchanan, was added to the hotel during the 1907 addition and served as the hotel’s original ballroom.
Adorned with crystal chandeliers and framed with palladian windows and marble pilaster, the Grand Ballroom evokes a feel of timeless elegance and romance.

Originally a gentleman’s only billiards hall, and later a 5-Diamond restaurant, the Oakroom and its legacy live on in the Seelbach Hilton through private dinners, receptions, and tastings...
One can almost smell the cigar smoke and hear the Sharp clacking sound of billiard balls colliding.
Don’t forget to stop by the Al Capone room, a small private room located inside the Oakroom. Let the history come alive by participating in an on-site tour.
