Best Luxury Hotels In Ohio

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.

Built in 1909, the Lytle Park Hotel, part of the Autograph Collection, is another great option for those wishing to immerse in the city’s elegant heritage – you’ll find it in the Historic District. The interior has been recently refurbished, to create an oasis-like experience, with a park-inspired design. Guests can fine-dine at Subito on northern Italian cuisine, grab a drink in the lobby bar, or hang out in the Marketplace. The jewel at the top of the property is the rooftop venue, over which a fully retractable cover ensures a convivial socialising space come rain or shine.

You could opt for a downtown boutique property, tailored in the style of the city and expressing its own character.

While fancier small plates, providing a flavour of the Midwest, can be enjoyed at Khora. Book one of the hotel’s 94 bedrooms with custom-designed Murmaid mattresses and let your US adventure begin in comfort.

With a former life as a bank, this century-old building is somewhat of a city landmark – what was once the vaults is now a fancy cocktail lounge. There’s also an award-winning Italian restaurant, Centro (don’t miss the handmade pasta and 900-year-old sourdough brick oven pizzas), The Garden of Eden Rooftop Lounge, the family-run Heinen’s Market to grab any grocery necessities or treats (look up to get a glimpse of the venue’s Tiffany stained-glass rotunda) and the Ledger Bar for beers and bites. Bring your pooch along for the stay too – Metropolitan at The 9 has an indoor dog park.

As with all within the Kimpton collection, this hotel echoes the personality of its city in a playful, crafty, yet always sophisticated manner.

The Ritz-Carlton’s classic European elegance is re-imagined for Cleveland in a palette of soft blues and greys. Its TURN Bar + Kitchen pays homage to the city’s industrial heritage within the steel industry and serves refined dishes crafted from local ingredients.

Those staying in Club Level Suites also enjoy access to the Club Lounge on the 14th floor, from which the views are phenomenal and snacks/drinks are complimentary. Plus you’ll benefit from a dedicated concierge.

Housed within a Victorian-era Arcade shopping arcade, built in 1890, this hotel’s architecture is something very special indeed. Vaulted ceilings, pretty balconies, period back-lit staircases, a majestic lantern-lit atrium and an 85 feet high skylight stretching more than 300 feet will have you gazing in awe. Alongside the antique features, you’ll find the mod cons of a 24-hour fitness centre, a salon and spa, a restaurant, a lobby market and a lounge. Plus there are restaurants available in the arcade, outside the hotel. Hyatt Regency Cleveland At The Arcade has 293 bedrooms.

This downtown property offers all of the trappings of a Westin hotel, such as the brand’s own mattresses and fitness concept.

It’s home to one of the biggest ballrooms in Cleveland and bedrooms proffer views of either Lake Erie or the city skyline. Valet parking is also available for a fee.
