Great location in the center of Cincinnati, near Fountain Square and many good restaurants. Excellent and professional staff. One of the nicer hotels in town and one with more charm than the others. A good alternative to the big chain hotels.

Stayed here for one night over for the Flying Pig marathon. Left the car with the valet, and no issues with that. Excellent bell service. The bellman let us walk around the room for a minute and made sure we liked the room and there wouldn't be any problems before we left. Location is nice for fountain square and the... More

I enjoyed the one night stay here for the Flying Pig run and Cinco De Mayo celebration. The location was wonderful, but depending on how many times you need to get to your car, you may end up shelling out quite a bit in tips. Bring comfortable walking shoes, and stay local here.

This was our first trip to Cincinnati. We wanted a hotel close to the Great American Ballpark and we could not have found a better hotel. We travel to different cities to catch baseball games and The Cincinnatian Hotel is probably the nicest hotel we've stayed in. The guest rooms, modern in design, were just gorgeous. The room had a...

We stayed the weekend of April 27, attending the Il Divo concert at the Horseshoe Casino. Check-in at arrival time was simple and quick. We called earlier to coordinate dining and shuttle service. Concierge was very helpful. You receive an actual brass key when you check in, which reinforces the branding of this being a classic hotel in Cincinnati. Everything... More

If your staying in downtown Cincinnati, this hotel would be tough to beat. Awesome rooms with big windows and high ceilings and nice furnishings. This is an older hotel with a beautiful lobby and wonderful service. Very cool staircase that goes up from lobby. Gym was small but perfect for a quick workout, but again the best thing is the...
