The Aleksander House Bed and Breakfast, is a gracious 1882 Victorian home, centrally located in historic "Old Louisville" Kentucky, the third largest preservation area in the country. The city of Louisville has more Victorian houses and in-tact stained glass than any other city in the United States.

Our rooms are beautifully decorated and comfortable and our rates are reasonable.
Inside are 14 foot ceilings, original hardwood floors, light fixtures, stained glass and fireplaces. The walls of the spacious dining room are lined with French Toile paper and prints of 19th century French Impressionists.
