The Westin Hotel, Cincinnati
Expert reviews
“The Westin overlooks the city’s most popular landmark, the Tyler Davidson Fountain on Fountain Square. The building, designed in the classic Renaissance style, was once the Albee Theater. Shoppers will appreciate that it’s just a short stroll away from Tower Place mall at Carew Tower.”

Great location in the heart of the city; get food elsewhere
Incredible location, walking distance from the river and many other sights and restaurants. Friendly staff.
Terrible food that did not match the in-room dining breakfast menu, basically it is all pre-made, stale airport cafe style food.

The bed was really comfy, and the location was great. The lavender was a nice touch. Our room was peaceful and quiet.
The elevators were quite confusing.

They had a new elevator system that seemed to be confusing everyone.

Great room, horrible parking garage option for trucks
Room was nice. Bed was comfy. View was good.
We have a truck and the valet had my husband park his own stating they don’t park trucks anymore but had us go to the garage to park it. It was a very very tight winging pathway down, once started, no way to reverse it!!! His truck barely fit, all tires rubbed, rims got scratched! I see why they aren’t allowed to do it BUT warning the customer why would be nice!!! Instead of sending us that way with no way to reverse it! Now we spend $350 getting rims repaired! We have stayed at the Westin a lot because they always parked our vehicles. We didn’t know any different. But unfortunately, my husband said we will never stay there again because of the parking.

Great stay, but the elevator
Everything was within walking distance to everywhere we wanted to be. The hotel was very nice and clean.
The elevator situation around 9-11 am was not a fun experience. I believe that is around check out time. I think they should allow elevators to go to pick up people instead of being in designated stops... like A B C D ... most times, by the time it got to our floor, the elevator was full.

Close to the ballpark. Clean
The elevator system was terrible. We spent way too much time waiting on elevators. No room service after 11pm. For $450 per night we should be able to order food 24/7 will not stay here again. We will go to the Hyatt or Hilton down the street.

Overall nice stay & front desk very customer-friendly.

No parking nor valet available as both were full & had to walk with bags to a near by garage several blocks away. Weird elevator keys.
