Cincinnati Marriott at RiverCenter

The room was very nice and clean, although the bed was a bit too firm. Overall the service was great and the hotel was beautiful…

Do NOT go to the lobby bar.

Thought I'd spend a little extra on what is supposed to be a nicer hotel. Save your money and go elsewhere. Terrible experience. The most important thing about a hotel is comfort and sleep. #1 I could hear a bunch of noise, people from the bar when I went to bed and I was up on 15th floor. Terribly uncomfortable beds, and absolute WORST PILLOWS I've ever tried to sleep on. I got 2 hours and 55 minutes of sleep total, fragmented. I think it was probably closer to 2 hours of sleep. Not sure how I'm supposed to function today. I Even tried grabbing a bath towel and rolling it up and using it in place of these awful pillows. Also, there's no hot tub, parking costs extra and so does breakfast. And supposedly there's a good view of the city but there's no patio or balcony to go out and admire it from.

We got a room with a view and for once it was really worth it. We really enjoyed the view of the river and Cincinnatti. We could also walk across the bridge and found a great restaurant, Blinkers, near the hotel. Was strange how few drawers there were into which I could unpack my bags - that was the only thing I didn't like about the room. Great otherwise.
