Hilton Cincinnati Netherland Plaza

8/10 Good

"Really loved 30’s vibe and the live jazz music. Staff was very nice and the room! Only problem was our toilet wasn’t flushing properly!"

21c Museum Hotel Cincinnati

8/10 Good

"Great stay, the only thing I would say is I was in the back corner by a stairwell and it was pretty noisy. I could also hear the people above me in the morning. The rooms are really big and spacious and beds are comfy! Hotel is in a perfect location in OTR. staff was great! They brought me a mini fridge when I asked. I would stay here again, but pick a room away from a door/stairwell!"

Symphony Hotel & Restaurant

10/10 Excellent

"This is an eclectic, boutique hotel. We loved it! It is right across the street from Cincinnati's Music Hall, a half-block from the City Connector (to get around downtown Cincinnati) and around the corner from the FC Cincinnati MLS soccer stadium (reason for our trip). There is a serve-yourself breakfast downstairs (bagels, hot cereal, coffee, etc), bar area. This is a building built in the 1860s. The rooms are small, but they are great for what they are -- convenient to the above, comfortable, and an interesting, fun place to stay. We would definitely stay here again. Innkeeper Molly is friendly and helpful!"
