Just returned from a quick overnight getaway with my wife. Admittedly was a bit nervous after reading some of the reviews, but truth be told, I don't get it. This place was WONDERFUL, and equally matched by the customer service. First, I want to give a big thumbs up to Mallory, who took my reservation and happened to be working... More

My family and I stayed here during the JamFest dance competition February 17-19, 2012. The hotel was conveniently located .8 of a mile from the Northern Kentucky Convention Center, and the short drive between the two places saved us significant $$$$. The hotel was packed with dance competitors, parents and wedding guests all weekend, yet everything seemed to be in... More

We go to Covington every year for a dance competition. My daughter always wanted to stay at the Radisson. Stayed 2 nights, paid extra for a room with a view. The view is fantastic at night, can't beat that. However, we were one floor under the revolving restaurant and could hear the music (band?) until 2 am. Our friends with... More

Overall, this is a great hotel and I would recommend you stay here. I came to tripadvisor and read all of the negative feedback and was quite nervous because I had already purchased the room on priceline for $60 a night. After reading for about an hour...I began to chronically worry. NEWS ALERT! Don't believe all of the nit-picking privilged... More

This hotel is so dated, its sad. I have stayed here several times for business. No matter how much they vacuum, the carpets just look dirty. The beds are terrible. They have sleep number beds, and they kill me. What they don't tell you on tv, they are air mattresses in a real mattress casing. I usually hurt for several... More

We stayed the weekend of the Super Bowl for three nights to long. The hotel is extremely noisy being that is on top of the highway. I'm not very picky but this hotel could use some upgrades also. Last of all....I got out of the shower and was brushing my hair when I could see something drop from the celling... More

Recently stayed 5 nights at this location. I had read reviews about all the noise and requested a room on the "quiet" side. Noise was not a problem for us. Our room was clean. The only problem we had was the first room we were in had an OLD matress with 1992 written in sharpie. It had a huge dip... More

As you can see from prior reviews (and if you look on Google maps, it is no secret), this hotel is located steps away from busy I-75 and and the double decker Brent Spence Bridge, spanning the Ohio River connecting Cincinnati and Covington. Room selection is key here. We stayed in room 1028, having paid a small fee for a... More

I would recommend you avoid this hotel. Its very outdated, VERY LOUD and with VERY poor management. Radisson had gone down hill in the past few years and this is prime example. This hotel did a very cheap update with a new bathroom sink and paint, old drapes and new picture covering OLD wallpaper with holes. This place is just... More

My family stayed here Thanksgiving week, for just one night on our way to Nashville. I chose this hotel due to Radisson's special point promotion, free parking, and for its location near Cincinnati Museum Center. The first room assigned was extremely noisy from the traffic on the nearby bridge, despite my request for a room on the quiet side. The... More
