The Cincinnatian Hotel, Curio Collection by Hilton

Under construction, but got a good deal

I took a Greyhound from Detroit, and when I booked those tickets, Kayak sent me to a deal (although they took a cut.) So, a room that normally cost about 150 was 77 on the site. After “fees and tax” that went up to about 101.50. In any case, I had a nice stay in a nice room downtown within walking distance of anything I needed or wanted. At one point, the room was cold and I didn’t think the thermostat was working correctly. They couldn’t get anyone to look at it, so I got to sleep in another room. So, at one point I had 2 rooms because I didn’t have to move my things out of the cold room. Also, I ordered a chicken wrap off the late night menu but didn’t know it had onions on it. I had to order a salad instead and they didn’t charge me. Very accommodating service. Also enjoyed the smart TV so I could watch my own Netflix account. Food was pretty good.

Construction. But they did their best to work with me. And of course things were a little pricey. No vending machines, so a can of coke cost 3.75. The sticker shock for breakfast: since the order card didn’t have prices, I thought that the list of items I checked were a part of a package deal. I ended up paying 76 for breakfast! I wish I had known. Seems a little underhanded. To charge that much for food and drink, at least let the guest know! I could have stocked up at the CVS down the street, but alas, there was no refrigerator.

Almost Perfect

The building, facilities, & staff were all very nice.

Very minor things, but our bathroom TV remote battery was dead. Also a notice before arriving at the hotel that the water pump system was going to be being worked on & we would have no water from midnight until around 6 a.m would have been appreciated.
