Bunkhouse Management Louisville , KY 40202
Posted 3 weeks ago
About our Company:
Hotel Genevieve is a hotel project from Austin's acclaimed hospitality group Bunkhouse. At 122 rooms, it is Bunkhouse's largest hotel to date and melds new architecture with rich touches that reference Louisville's one-of-a-kind culture. Inspired by a city that is much more layered than bourbon and horses, the hotel is for a regional type of limestone, Saint Genevieve, which is a key ingredient in bourbon production. Limestone is also prevalent throughout Texas, providing a throughline from Bunkhouse origins to this new chapter in Kentucky. Saint Genevieve is also the patron saint of Paris, celebrating both the French origins of Louisville and the many women that worked to bring the hotel to life.
Hotel Genevieve is proud to be a part of Bunkhouse, a hospitality company that is founded on the pillars of design, music, and authentic community-driven experiences. Bunkhouse operates and has designed, developed, and revitalized a celebrated portfolio of hospitality projects throughout the U.S., which include Hotel San José (sanjosehotel.com), Hotel Saint Cecilia (hotelsaintcecilia.com), Austin Motel (austinmotel.com), Jo's Coffee (joscoffee.com), Hotel Magdalena and Summer House on Music Lane (hotelmagdalena.com), The Carpenter Hotel and Carpenters Hall (carpenterhotel.com) in Austin; Hotel Havana and Ocho (havanasanantonio.com) in San Antonio; Phoenix Hotel (phoenixsf.com) in San Francisco, California; and Hotel San Cristóbal and Benno (sancristobalbaja.com) in Todos Santos, Mexico, with plans for expansion and future projects throughout the U.S. and Mexico.
