NAAUD Annual Meeting
New Dates: April 18-21, 2022
Due to the ongoing spread of COVID-19, our 2021 Annual Meeting in Louisville, KY will be postponed until April 18-21, 2022
The Embassy Suites by Hilton Louisville Downtown is historic, modern and memorable.
This historic property dates back to 1907 and is now on the National Register of Historic Places. The building housed Old Stewarts Merchandise Shop and remains one of the most beautiful preservations in Louisville. You can still see the crown molding, Old Stewarts tile decals, original sky lights and dramatic pillars. Just across the street you had people like Al Capone and Gatsby stopping by for the night.
Today the hotel maintains the original integrity of the building and the newly renovated space blends rich history, modern convenience and memorable hospitality. Located just a half-block from the Fourth Street Live! entertainment district in downtown Louisvillle, the hotel is surrounded by a bounty of dining options and area tourist attractions.
