“Our hotel is named for a regional type of limestone, Saint Genevieve. Named for the patron saint of Paris, it’s a tip of our hats to the French origins of Louisville. Limestone is prevalent throughout Texas, too, providing a throughline from Bunkhouse origins to this new chapter in Kentucky. A metaphorical and quite literal foundation if ever there was one. In Kentucky, getting stoned is a big deal. Limestone is the legacy of the commonwealth. Stone in and on every corner: reflecting our history, shaping our environment, and creating avenues for commerce.“
