Top Fountain Square Hotel Reviews

Hyatt Regency Cincinnati

10/10 Excellent

"Very nuce"

Radisson Hotel Cincinnati Riverfront

6/10 Okay

"This Radisson Hotel Cincinnati Riverfront is dated, but honestly, it shouldn’t be. It’s in a great location, and all the rooms appeared to have balconies. That said, the rooms definitely show their age with some peeling paint, outdated tile, and older carpet. The sheets and beds were average, but our room had its own in-wall HVAC unit that cooled very well. The hotel’s biggest selling point is “The 18th,” the rotating restaurant on the 18th floor. From my research, there are only a handful of rotating restaurants left in the U.S., so this was a unique experience. The 360-degree city and landscape views were absolutely fantastic, and we got some great pictures. Surprisingly, the food was not dated like the building itself. It was actually above average, and the skyline views made the dining experience even better. The staff was pleasant, although on a Friday evening I only saw a handful of couples dining there, which was disappointing considering how unique the restaurant is. We visited during the Maifest festival, and it was literally across the street from the hotel. The festival was great, and the surrounding bars and restaurants were all within walking distance. The immediate downtown area adjacent to the hotel felt safe and welcoming. We also visited the Ark Encounter, which was about a 25-minute drive away and definitely eye-opening. Bottom line — was the price worth it? Would I stay again? Should you consider it? And do I hope the owners update the property? All"
