Hotel appears to be fairly new, everyone was nice/friendly and courteous Rooms/bathrooms were very clean and didn’t have ask for extra towels or toiletries Rooms cleaned and stocked everyday

Very quiet at night The breakfast was awesome and there was also a gym If you wanted to go out and nor be too far away from the hotel, there was a restaurant bar and grill right next door We had a very pleasant hotel stay

Rikun Frances

Staff were pleasant Room was very clean, water pressure was great There is quite a bit of ambient noise due to it’s proximity to the main road, as well as other things in the room (fridge, AC) so if these things bother you, wear earplugs

The bed is firm, but not uncomfortably so Breakfast had some proteins, but mostly fruits and grains The hotel was full and we got to breakfast at 8am and there was still plenty of food! We really liked our stay here Plus, the parking lot is well lit!

We were traveling and stopped at Costco for gas; it was close We found the staff very friendly; the hotel very clean and welcoming Our room was clean; and the bed was very comfortable

We had a handicapped room and the shower; well usable and clean; could certainly use a refreshBreakfast was awesome with something for everyone and included in the price of the roomWe will be backWe ate at the restaurant/bar next door which was recommended Food wasn’t good at all Hit up Costco for a rotisserie chicken and salad; instead

This was the best hotel stay I have had anywhere post covid Staff was friendly and helpful Room was spotless

Extremely quiet with no noise from other rooms being heard It has a very convenient location which worked well for the convention I was attending at Duke Energy Station Convenient parking Valet staff was very courteous to point out the closest parking garage when I stated I wanted to park myself The pillows and beds were so comfortable Thank you Hyatt Cincinnati for providing such a comfortable place to stay

– Guerrero

Our stay was great! Hotel looked great I didn’t see past Lobby and room since we got there late in the day Room was so clean Hotel was in a great location

We were able to walk downtown for food We got a parking card that was later validated and parking was free This hotel was not far from Creation Museum we had visited earlier in the day

Brianna O’Daniel

Stay: June 16-18thReason: ConferenceExperience: Overall, my stay was positive and enjoyable My room was comfortable and clean (but the bed doesn’t face the TV?) I had a great view of the fireworks at the Great American Ballpark! However, my check in experience was frustrating

I booked a room block with the conference I was attending which was a king room I was put in a double queen on the top floor I called down to the desk to ask if I could be placed in the correct room and they accommodated my request I hauled my luggage back downstairs to pick up keys to my new room, and once I got to the room the keys didn’t work I had to haul my luggage back down to the desk again to get new keys and finally was able to get into my room I dined at the breakfast buffet prior to checking out and overall the food was okay The bacon was pretty salty but everything else was tasty I do want to warn you that you will have to park across the street in the garage (it cost me $48 by the time I left on Saturday) and there is no assistance to transport your luggage, so prepare yourself!

Tara Little

Everything about this place was fantastic! The bed was so soft I actually woke up with no back pain, the 2 person spa tub was amazing, the grounds are absolutely gorgeous, I could go on and on And Leanne (the lady who runs the BnB) was the best host She was only a text away and she responded within a minute

She went above and beyond to make her guests happy And she’s a great cook, because the breakfast we ordered was delicious! And we can forget the resident kitty, who was also very friendly and sweet We will definitely be going back!

Tara Lane

I would like to express how breathtaking this visit was Although we weren’t on vacation or there for an exciting event, it was surprising and tucked away yet comforting and relaxing Just to explain my great aunt Janet Bell ( forever in my heart) passed away and she was just a blessed woman filled with the love of Jesus and she chose this place to have a meal after her burial do the family could celebrate her life! And that we did! As we walked from the convent parking to the small walkway it let you down a curving walk way of cooling water features and comfortable seating areas with fireplaces to a small yet elegant hall with large round tables for the family to be seating and enjoy good company and conversation

Adjacent to the seating area was a fully usable kitchen that was set with the food the family provided in buffet style for efficient time frame as we were all hot, tired, and grieving As you can imagine our thoughts were all over the place and it was a nice side thought to take away from the reality of our loss Thanks to family and my Aunt it was a great choice And to the business for opening and maintaining such a nice property

Kelley Carameli

Another great stay at the Weller Haus in Newport! High-quality stay from the amazing breakfast delivered to room, to the deep whirlpool tub (in the Margaret’s Porch Suite), and the extra amenities – room robes, common room w/ snacks, and lovely garden in-prep for Spring Quiet street, good parking, easy process Looking forward to another visit in the future – our “go to” place when in Cincinnati/KY Bourbon Trail

We stayed here when visiting the Creation Museum and the Ark We had a wonderful experience! We stayed in a two bedroom unit Loved having the little kitchen area to store any food and the big fridge was great

Location wise it’s not far from a lot of things The place itself was very clean Breakfast was great Kids enjoyed the indoor swimming pool in the evenings I liked that it wasn’t right on a busy road Even though it’s close to the airport there wasn’t a single time an airplane was loud enough to bother us or for us to even notice

Regina Phillips

The staff was Amazing! Everyone was extremely helpful and accommodating Breakfast was great and Happy hour was awesomeThe bed was super comfy which is a plus for us! The shower heads were top notch which we’ve decided to have that added to our shower in our home

We have no complaints and stayed for two weeksThank you to all the staff for your hospitality!

Michelle Kenworthy

I gave a 3 star because the room we stayed in was stated to be ADA accessible with a roll in shower That was not the case The shower had a large lip

As for the toilet, it was so low that I couldn’t get up without help, there were no grab bars around the toiletIf not for that I’d give it a 5 The hotel was clean, food was decent, some days better than others but overall was fine We had 3 breakfasts and one dinner thereHotel was clean, staff was very friendly and helpful They made our stay very pleasant I would stay again

Aliegha Daiek

Had a very good experience Staff was very nice and attentive We only stayed one night but it couldn’t have gone much better

Love the modern look, no dark and gloom here We had a little trouble checking in but the manager fixed everything right away Very disappointed with the pool Don’t think it’s been cleaned in months Algae everywhere in the pool Room was clean , stocked and very nice and spacious We woke to a large mess in the hallway that morning After bringing to staff attention at the desk they cleaned right away Would definitely come back again

I did not get any photos of the hotel but it was very nice and very clean We got a whirlpool suite for 3 nights and it was a dream Our only issue was that the AC in the room was not great and the jets on the tub were only active a short while

The beds were comfortable; it was in a great location outside of city traffic; it was beside a movie theatre and several food places for ease of access; the breakfast was delicious and had something for everyone I would stay here again if I did another trip to Cincinnati

Terry Nottingham

Good customer service but there was a couple of things I did not like 1) They allow smokers to sit in front of the main entrance and smoke despite their no smoking publications This was the biggest problem for me because of my kids

2) The room smelled when we first got there We had to let the air flow a bit before we could enter

So courtyards have been historically hit or miss for me This experience was definitely a miss in my book This hotel was well cheaper than the other options in the area but you definitely paid for what you got

Everything technically worked but the bathroom was stained from the shower to the toilet There was also some kind of stain or paint all over the curtains and stains on the tablesHowever regardless of the rest of the rooms and the potential for cleaner or better kept rooms the number one reason you should avoid at least half of this hotel is This hotel practically sits on the highway You hear every braking trucker, every motorcycle or loud car exhaustStaff was very friendly and were available but there was an overly casual atmosphere with how they handled themselves Any time you ordered from the Bistro the dude was in the lobby on a laptop or lounging chit chatting to other guestsI would recommend you avoid this location if you care to have a restful uninterrupted night of rest Definitely getting added to the corporate do not travel listing

Brianna O’Daniel

My husband and I stayed here while in the area for a softball tournament this past weekend and we were overall pleased! The room was clean (aside from the shower floor) and included a microwave and fridge which was super helpful The front desk had a bag of extra towels handy for anyone who needed them which was great The location is nice and quiet and conveniently located near the Florence Mall and restaurants

Breakfast was not included but we didn’t really have time to sit and eat anyway, but just be aware of that when booking We would definitely stay here again!

Monica Gende

I did not heed the warnings from previous reviews because it’s a Marriott, it can’t be that bad! Spoiler alert…it is Some sort of weird black/moldy spots all over the blinds, lights out in the hallways, showers/bathrooms that aren’t well cleaned, linens that look very “well used”, and can’t even get fresh towels brought to the room? What’s the point of offering “service requests” on the app when after 2 hours you call the front ask ask about it and they say “you have to come get them” The walls are paper thin, so you hear almost everything happening beside you, upstairs, and in the hall ways

We didn’t have any issues with the sound of traffic because the room fan is loud enough to cover it up Bathrooms were just gross, and there was hair on the wall and the toilet seat when we arrived Everything seemed dingy and neglected, far from Marriott standards This is not a location I’ll stay at again Red Roof Inn offers the same quality for half the price

This hotel is exactly what I expect from the brand Great service and they worked hard to get us a check in early because we had a wedding that day Rooms were clean and exactly what we wanted

Breakfast hands down great for complimentary breakfast The morning service worker was extremely friendly Loved the add ons for the waffles The pool was clean and I really loved the late hours Beds were comfortable, not the best but definitely not horrible Accessible to anything we wanted However, true to almost every Hilton experience we didn’t get our complimentary drinks and snacks as gold members 🙁 Truthfully, that’s the only negative I have Will return and recommend 👌

A B

This is by far one of the best hotels I’ve stayed at with my dog The rooms are spacious and clean The breakfast was a real breakfast with staff constantly refreshing the stock and making sure everything is clean

Housekeeping was courteous 10/10 would recommend It’s not only off the hwy and easy to find but its close to tons of stuff with a walking path nearby

Damian Kong

This was a very good Hampton Inn! Hotel lobby area was clean and spacious The hotel room was very clean and met my expectations! Front desk staff was superb, especially Tanisha! Their system went down and she worked tirelessly to get each guest checked in as fast as possible Thank you Tanisha for the awesome service, definitely would return to this Hampton Inn!

Jo-Anna Benton

On a whim My bf had me come to this hotel as a little staycation I found the views to and from our room to be the best part of us staying there The gentlemen at the front desk were also very friendly

After a long night of enjoying our getaway We were disappointed to find the whirlpool that we were going to indulge in before checking out was no longer available It had been filled in and tiled over w a patio table on top We certainly were looking forward to that a bonus relaxation to a great night Should’ve been alerted to that change when reservations were made

Kyle Hoylman

The hotel advertises itself as pet-friendly, but upon arrival to check in advises that a NON-REFUNDABLE $250 pet fee is required This fee was not disclosed when the room was booked We cancelled our reservation on the spot and stayed at the hotel next door for less than the pet deposit at this location

As a long-time Marriott client, this whole experience was disappointing If you are seeking a pet-friendly hotel in the Greater Cincinnati area, take this Marriott location off our your list

Kimmy Margason

Best breakfast!!We chose this hotel based on two things: the reviews about breakfast and the proximity to the Creation Museum and the Ark Encounter This hotel was not only excellent in exceeding expectations in BOTH of those areas, it also provided wonderful friendly hospitality, a clean/comfortable room and excellent service! WOW!!!! These people REALLY care! Now I only got the names of the sweet ladies taking care of our breakfast but everyone was kind! Cathy kept refilling the breakfast items in a friendly and timely manner! When I asked if they had any hot chocolate packets, she gladly found some, handed me some and restocked for other guests! I didn’t get a chance to talk with Candy who was also working alongside Cathy at breakfast but she was busy cleaning tables for more guests as previous eaters would leave The cinnamon rolls were SO DELICIOUS! And everything tasted great! After staying here, we chose only to stay at Holiday Inn Express Hotels for the next two nights on our way home (vacation)

Cathy made a fan of this hotel chain out of me and my family of 7! Give her a bonus! Thank you staff for making us feel so welcome and truly cared for and providing extra towels and water for our family!

K Carter

Good location from both the Ark and the Creation Museum Beds were comfortable and room was nice Housekeeping did a good job on the day they cleaned

Breakfast was typical, but varied a little each day Some items were very good They had fresh cooked oatmeal and whole fruit along with bread, hot eggs, etc First time that I’ve ever seen an automatic pancake maker Staff were nice Ate at 2 restaurants nearby and both were good, though there’s not a ton of variety close by(Indoor) hot tub still wasn’t open which was very disappointing since we walked a lot on this trip Hotel rooms are not soundproof enough At least one school group stayed in this hotel – we ran into them at the Ark One particular room was very noisy and woke us at 6:30 (one floor up and 2 rooms over) Part of the problem is that the arms on the doors need to be regulated – all the doors slammed We did speak to the front desk clerk and the noise got a little better (they stopped doing gymnastics, but were closing the door a lot) The only other issue is that while we were given a late check-out, the computer took away access It’s very hard to load luggage when you can’t get back in the room This is easily fixable by the chain’s IT department and it happens frequently

Bonnie Kolb

We stayed here one night as we passed through on our drive to Michigan The room was inviting, and comfortable The pillows were great and there was an indoor pool that was clean and well kept

The staff seemed to be nice, but did not interact with me They could definitely smile more There were a few eateries, gas stations, and even a car wash The construction was a nuisance, but I’m from Nashville, TN and am used to confusion because of construction 🤣 overall, it was a nice place for a one to two night accommodation

Dirty Mold in the shower, stain on bedsheets, carpet dirty where it takes some effort to pick up the vacuum to reach The pool area has a lot of surface rust

When leaving we ended up taking the stairs because one elevator was out of service and the two times it opened while were waiting it was filled with employees, housekeeping and laundry carts

My Sister’s Keeper

The worst experience ever! I made my reservation almost 2 months ago I subsequently called the hotel and upgraded my reservation from a double bed to a king room When I arrive at the hotel after driving 6 hours, I was told that my reservation was canceled without notice apparently because they were overbooked

There were no rooms available and due to gross incompetence and poor guest services from staff like Christie Ward, i missed the first night of the Cincinnati Music Festical for which I had purchased $150 tickets Instead of enjoying the concert, I was calling around and riding around trying to find another hotel until after 10pm I am so disappointed with the Hyatt brand, and I will not be seeking accommodations with them ever again

Do not stay here:Parking is a nightmareStaff is rude and not helpful at allEntrance on Fifth street is closed early no clear signsHotel offers no breakfast

They don’t offer cleaning everydayNo laundry bags in the room No plastic bags at allEven cheap hotels give you a plastic bag for your dirty laundry Not this hotelNot sure how can they call themselves a 4 star hotelYou expect more from a WestinBathroom is old and needs fixing Mirror is falling apartSmall fridge made a screeching noise and had to be disconnectedNo ice buckets in the roomJust overall an awful experience This hotel has seen better days

Holly French

First off, we booked here mostly due to the pictures of an amazing pool that my daughter was excited about only to arrive and find out it was not open This was not listed anywhere on their website When we arrived to the room it was 80°, we turned the temp down, went to dinner and hours later it was still 78°

We had someone come “fix” it An hour later it was still the same temperature We called down and got a new room The same thing proceeded with this room We moved rooms for a 3rd time (in the middle of the night, having to wake our one year old up each time to transfer our belongings) only to end up in yet another hot room that would not cool off By this point we were all beyond exhausted and just over it We all woke up drenched in sweat early the next morning The stay was so awful we cut our trip early and canceled our next night and decided to go home I have traveled a lot and this was by far the worst experience I have ever had If you don’t mind expecting to hang out in an empty pool and sleeping in a sauna, this is the place for you Otherwise, rethink your decision to stay here

I had a pleasant 2 night stay with my husband and 2 small kids Customer service was great, nice cleaning service It was nice and air-conditioned throughout the building, including our room

Our room had a mini fridge, microwave, and coffee maker We also had a flat screen to keep us entertained Our favorite guest perks were the pool, hot tub, and breakfast As soon as we got to the hotel from a long drive, we took a nice, and relaxing dip in the swimming area The pool water was nice and warm , we quite enjoyed it Breakfast serves from 6-9am Affordable pricing and great location!

I stayed 3 days with my wife and 7 year old Son Great room, my room had a mini fridge and microwave which it was great The place was very clean and family friendly

The breakfast was really good Lots of places to visit around, specially the Ark encounter Lots of dining options around The only negative was the lady at the front desk (Michelle) she was rude and had Zero customer service There was another gentleman at the front desk, he was really and made us feel welcome

Disappointed Great location and an attractive building exterior and large, inviting entry with friendly, welcoming front desk help And it’s in a great location

That’s the good newsOne very small, very slow, elevator for 4 floors We had to be moved twice before settling into a room The first had a door that wouldn’t lock The second room had an air conditioner leaking so badly the room smelled of mold and mildew The room we finally stayed in left some questions as to the cleanliness as there were clearly visible stains on the comforter plus a sink that drained slower than an hourglass

Overall I had a great stay here, it was a last minute booking near the airport for a night as my flight got cancelled I gave their front desk a call to see about the airport shuttle and they came and got me immediately, which I really appreciated, being stranded at the airport otherwise Everyone working was wonderful

Only issue was a big crowd of parents and kids that used all the public spaces basically all night and were very loud in the hallways, constantly knocking on doors and yelling I was hoping to use the pool, but really couldn’t And there looked to be a tray with a used coffee filter just sitting on the TV stand in my room But overall for what the hotel has the power to change, it was a great stay

GREAT HOTEL EXPERIENCE!!! I highly recommend this hotel! We wanted to stay at a nicer hotel that had a nice pool area, and this one even had a hottub! The kids looked forward to the pool every single night, and they leave their pool area open til 11:00PM! AWESOME! Their breakfasts were great, with a lot of variety and options! There were no loud noises during the night and we never heard our neighbors being loud at all On our last night we stayed here, some dumb kid had “an accident” in the pool, and so, in accordance with health department requirements they had to stick chemicals into the pool and shut it down for 24 hours When we got down the elevators and saw the CLOSED sign our kids were BUMMED!!! 🙄🙄🙄 We had started going back up the elevator to our room, but then the desk worker came up to the elevator doors and informed us that the hotel right next door was also their sister hotel and that if we wanted to, we could walk over there and use their pool

Which we all did, and the kiddos all had a blast on their last night! We REALLY REALLY appreciated them doing that for us Was very nice 😊😊👍👍

This is a must stay if you are searching in the northern Kentucky area just over the Ohio border My Family of 4 went on an over night business trip and we 100% picked this hotel because of the HOT TUB! That is right, a pool and hot tub and that area of the hotel is available until 11pm! This is one of the only hotels with a hot tub with in I would guess a 30min to one hour radius (believe me I have already done the research for you!) The hot breakfast offered in the morning was great, the decor and cleanliness is top notch, there are many other amenities including an outside patio and fireplace and the staff were nice! This hotel is worth the price with 2 thumbs up and I will definitely be back if I stay in the area

Stopped on our way from NY to Tennessee to get a few hours rest The staff was AMAZING from the minute we checked in until we checked out Beds were comfy, room was clean & perfectly located for us to take our little dog outside

Highly recommend & if we ever need to stop for some rest again while traveling through Ohio, hands down we will stay at the Country Inn & Suites!

Stayed at the Hotel for a business event When I checked in I went to hand the front desk my tax exempt form and the gentleman told me they did not need a copy of it I then went to my room and when I went to use the restroom there was a massive water damage leak that look like it was about to burst in any minute

The rooms are extremely small and definitely did not have any renovations done on them when the building was updated As well I was on the first floor where someone could have walked up to my window and seen completely in my room if the blinds weren’t kept shut When I went to check out, they had not removed the taxes I then went and gave them another tax exempt form and ask them to email me the updated receipt When I received the email they had charged me twice for state tax instead of removing it I then had to return to the hotel after my event and wait an hour for them to get my receipt correct While I understand it was not one soul person, and some situations cannot be controlled, this was not the full case with everything that happened to me Especially for not having any real breakfast except for grab and go items, this hotel is not worth the money or the difficulties

The hotel was incredibly easy to find from the interstate, and we weren’t expecting a Waffle House in the same parking lot so that was an added bonus Came up last weekend for a concert and only stayed for one night and got a late checkoutThe people working check-in Saturday were doing an awesome job despite being busy

We didn’t get up in time for breakfast, but right now it’s grab and go because they are short staffed (which I can completely understand!) so just keep that in mind when you’re looking to book
