I'm heading up for Thanksgiving weekend for the final days of the meet and would like to know a decent area to stay.

I stayed at the Hurstbourne Days Inn for the last Breeders' Cup and that was fine however 12 miles away.

Thanks in advance.

Stay at the boat in Indiana, the tables are ice cold but it is an easy ride to Churchill.....

Our basketball team stays at the Hilton Garden Inn right across the street, right next to the Super 8 and in the same parking lot as the Cardinal place. Great inexpensive hotel and great location.

Good job with the Omari pickup. Not the most athletically gifted kid in the world, but he's a player.

You should check to see if UofL plays at home that weekend. If they do, you will not find a hotel close to the racetrack for very cheap. They do not play at home, try any hotel on Crittenden drive. There are about 4-5 hotels there for your choosing. Also check Southern Indiana as well. That is a real short drive to the track. There is also a Holiday Inn on 3rd and Broadway that isnt too bad. Good luck

I checked and they don't. Thanks for the heads up though.

This will be more expensive than similar in the area but agree, great place with the Cardinal a walk away.

You could always sleep in Wagner's parking lot. That way you would have the jump on the breakfast crowd. That is of course if your still alive come morning.

Hotels won't exactly be "expensive" anywhere in L-ville in the middle of November. How much are you willing to spend? I can't imagine even the downtown Marriott would be that unaffordable.

the courtyard by marriot is a $100. nice place.

31, will you be at the track on thanksgiving?

[TheSpyder]

Go to Expedia or similar and look at Louisville Airport hotels. Many to choose from and 10 minutes from the track.

Thanks for everyone's input.
