Best Luxury Hotels In Cincinnati
Known as the Queen City, Cincinnati is set on the banks of the mighty River Ohio. Step back in time with a stroll through Over-the-Rhine, one of the largest preserved historic districts in the country, featuring beautifully restored 19th-century architecture. Catch a baseball game at the Great American Ball Park, home of the Cincinnati Reds, one of the oldest professional baseball teams in the United States. Visit the many museums and galleries. And indulge in the city’s famous chilli, a unique regional speciality served over spaghetti or hot dogs. Here are our favourite Cincinnati hotels.
The Cincinnatian Hotel, Curio Collection by Hilton
Dating back to 1882, this is one of the Historic Hotels of America, housed in a landmark building. It was previously known as The Palace and displays French Second Empire style. As soon as you arrive inside the majestic building, you’ll be wowed by its soaring atrium, vintage artworks and grand marble staircase. But there are also plenty of mod cons, such as iPod docks, blackout blinds and coffee makers in the bedrooms. There’s also a fitness centre, a coffee shop, a bar and a restaurant onsite. The Cincinnatian Hotel is found in the Central Business District.
