I stayed here on a Friday night when the Cincinnati Reds had a night game. After the game, they had fireworks. I sat on my own personal balcony and watched these and it was beautiful as I had a full view of Cincinnati. This Cincinnati Riverfront hotel is right over the bridge in Covington, Ky. The hotel is a round... More

I seldom write a review if I don't have mostly positive things to say, but this was one of the worst hotel experiences I've had for a 3-4 start hotel. The lobby was small but nice - well kept, clean, moderately elegant. The pool area was very nice, as well. The staff was nice enough, though I was only there... More

We go to Cininnati every year, and we always stay at this hotel; we have never had any bad experiences. The lobby is clean and sweet-smelling, the restaurants nearby give numerous options, and the beds are spotless and commodious. There is a great view of the city; I tend to catch myself staring down at the cars...great place!

Per the hotel's name I expected a hotel near the water or within walking distance but it was quite industrial area with nothing close by. The hotel, is in an urgent need of a remodel. Even with being a gold member breakfast was not included and it was very expensive for what it was. I will never stay here again... More

The room I stayed in on the 8th floor, 82, from 26 April - 28 April 2013 was absolutely horrifying. The carpet was an ugly green color with stains all over it. I wouldn't walk barefoot on the carpet for fear of getting some nasty foot disease. The comforter had pen marks all over it and my mothers sleep number... More

Coming from a small city in SC to a busy city like Cincinnati was a bit of a culture shock! I was visiting Cincinnati for a graduation, but the hotels that were closest to the event were over priced and out of my budget (and frankly the surrounding areas safety looked a little questionable), so I found a room a...

My husband and I went down for an anniversary getaway, and spent a night in an Executive Suite - it's basically a double-sized room, a living room and bedroom separated with french doors, and large whirlpool in the bedroom. Both my husband and I agree it's the nicest whirlpool room we've stayed in. We were on the 13th floor facing... More

First, the good things about the hotel. Staff was very pleasant and accomodating. Rooms were clean. Buffet breakfast was pretty good and for $8, a decent deal. The bad. - Rooms are ridiculously small. Smallest room I've ever stayed in. Small bathroom too. We had 4 people in there for about an hour and you couldn't move without tripping into... More
