Cincinnati's Fidelity Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel was lovely and accommodating for travel with a 2 year old. Clean great location and feels modern."

Hampton Inn & Suites Cincinnati-Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our stay at the Hampton Inn in Cincinnati. We stayed two nights as part of a two-week road trip through the midwest. The room was clean and comfortable. The breakfast area was spacious and breakfast was better than usual. We did not have time to check out other amenities. The hotel is located downtown close to many nice restaurants. We really enjoyed the area around the hotel and did not feel the need to go anywhere by car during our stay."

Renaissance Cincinnati Downtown Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location in downtown Cincinnati, easily assessable to all local transit. Staff was knowledgeable about the festival going on and gave us great tips. Would reccomend!"

AC Hotel by Marriott Cincinnati at The Banks

10/10 Excellent

"I had a wonderful stay at the AC Hotel by Marriott in Cincinnati and would happily book it again. From the moment I walked into the lobby, I was impressed by how clean and polished everything looked. The modern, uncluttered design felt fresh and welcoming, and it was obvious the space is well maintained. My room was just as spotless. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom gleamed, and the whole room had a crisp, tidy feel that made it easy to relax after a long day. The attention to detail really showed. The staff were consistently friendly and helpful. Everyone I interacted with, from the front desk to the team members in the lobby, greeted me warmly and went out of their way to make sure I had what I needed. Check-in was quick and easy, and questions were answered with a smile."
