For the price you could find better. Shower head doesn’t work. I called front desk to see about getting it fixed. I was told maintenance was on their way but they never showed up. Warm water, not hot for the shower. Curtains are tore with holes in them. Room smells musty. Definitely don’t recommend!

Good, not Great!

The hotel is dated and in need of some furniture and flooring upgrades or a good cleaning. This was my 2nd year staying during the Cincinnati Music Festival. The customer service at the desk (at all times, day/night) was excellent, with a friendly, patient, and resourceful staff. The cleaning staff was also very professional. You have to ask for towels and other room amenities (coffee, cups, little things) and that may be due to this economy. One of the air conditioning units was leaking water and subsequently pooled all over the carpet until it eventually reached the middle of the sitting area after 3 days. The hotel staff didn't seem to be concerned about it, but also said the hotel was sold out, so there wasn't much they could do. The elevator situation (use/access) was a lot better than last year and at least 4 were working! Overall, it was a great stay, but going across the street to the Hyatt to visit a few friends, the Hilton is in need of an upgrade or at least a shampoo and a little paint and wipe down. The restaurant is still in the top 10 when it comes to hotels.

Very surprised and disappointed customer

Visited Cincinnati for the music festival and was very disappointed for the money that I spent for it to be 2-3 elevators working at a time, asking for funds 3 days and in advance when previous reservations were to pay when you depart was not able to provide a receipt until departure but was given the run around when 4 different emails where provided and never received, food options were very slim

We experienced everyone’s worst nightmare, being trapped in an elevator. We boarded the elevator to go to the 10th floor where our room was. When we boarded there were no other guests. The elevator on the way up stopped on the 5th floor for a guest who was going down to the lobby. He declined to board since we were on our way up. After a bit of a delay the elevator resumed going up and went right past our floor and stopped at the 24th floor at which the doors didn’t open. I called the front desk to let them know we were stuck. They sent a maintenance man to our floor. By the time he arrived the air in the elevator was getting extremely hot and my 11 year old daughter was panicking. Maintenance was going to force the doors open. We heard some loud banging and immediately the elevator shot up to the 26th floor. After a minute or two our elevator then went down from the 26th floor to the basement at which the doors opened and we ran out. Two guests were boarding a different elevator and we joined them to the lobby. I approached the staff at check in and told them we had escaped and tell their maintenance we’d made it out. The staff gave a curt apology and offered nothing for the 20 minutes of trauma. No upgrade of room, comped dinner, heck even a free appetizer would have meant something.
