We enjoyed the retro decor. Restaurant was convenient but there was a very small selection after restaurant closed. When we checked in we were asked if we were okay to down size room to two queen beds. I had planned this stay several months in advance, so I wasn’t happy when asked to switch rooms. The front desk did provide free parking and a voucher for a free drink at the bar or free breakfast. Overall everything else was good.

The Graduate Hotel of Cincinnati was warm and welcoming. The staff were knowledgeable and friendly. My suite was clean and spacious. I especially enjoyed the balcony and the view views of the city. There is a variety of choices for breakfast as well. I would recommend your facility. I also love the eclectic design of the hotel and the wall murals.
