Hampton Inn & Suites Cincinnati-Downtown
Hotel itself was excellent- transformed from a former office building into a quiet and roomy hotel. I would recommend using valet parking on next visit. We chose to self-park and it was a long walk up a couple of flights to the parking area. Staff very friendly and hotel was spotless.
