Top University of Cincinnati Hotel Reviews

voco The Clair Cincinnati Downtown by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay, will definitely go back"

Hilton Cincinnati Netherland Plaza

8/10 Good

"The location is great for the events we attended. The room is smaller than most and the bathroom even smaller. There was a leak somewhere in the bathroom leaving the floor constantly damp. The building used to have some businesses on the lower levels but they are no longer there. There are convenient restaurants close by. The hotel restaurant has a limited food menu. Had a jazz band playing both nights at the bar if that’s your speed. It’s an old place and could use some updating but it was fine for our purposes."

Graduate by Hilton Cincinnati

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, Great parking (in and out all weekend) Very Clean, VERY friendly staff"

"Great accommodations and staff and breakfast"

Comfort Suites Cincinnati University - Downtown

8/10 Good

"The front desk was nice and helpful her name is Brittany. The managers can use a little finesse when dealing with guests sometimes they can come off a little strong I guess it’s just a personality but if your working as a customer manager you should adjust your attitude to be more a little friendly and not come off as a bit abrasive."

Gaslight Bed and Breakfast

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly host, good environment, lots of thoughts given to the iminities for their guests. The breakfast made was delish and the company was nice. Thanks for the stay."
