I recently stayed at the Hilton Netherland Plaza in Cincinnati, and overall, it was a wonderful experience that I’d rate 4.5 stars. The hotel itself is absolutely stunning—its historic Art Deco design gives it a unique charm that you don’t often find in modern hotels. From the moment you walk into the lobby, you can feel the elegance and character of the place.

The location is another big plus. It’s right in downtown Cincinnati, making it very convenient to explore nearby attractions, restaurants, and shops. Everything felt easily accessible, which made the trip much more enjoyable.

The room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The bed was especially cozy, and I appreciated the quiet atmosphere—it made it easy to relax after a long day. The staff were friendly and professional, always willing to help with any questions or requests.

The only reason I’m giving 4.5 instead of a full 5 stars is that a few aspects felt slightly dated, and service at peak times could be a bit slow. However, these were minor issues and didn’t take away much from the overall experience.

I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Cincinnati, especially if you appreciate historic architecture and a central location. It’s a memorable place to stay, and I’d happily come back again.

The hotel is in a beautiful building that is historically significant, but that means the rooms are quite old. I received upgrade upon check-in, and the view from the hotel room is amazing

16.02.2026 DerekLeung

The location is perfect for us as it is just next to Convention Centre. However, the hotel is too old. The lift, the lobby, the room are too old. My room door lock was out of battery after I came back from Battery. It took almost 20 mins to get someone to fix it. The service was not up to standard.

09.12.2025 Guest

The room was not cleaned well on the corner Behind of stand lights and black spots on the bottom tiles above the tub.

However we enjoyed to stay there with a full of history, beautiful murals and kind staffs.

This hotel is very old and had a lot of nostalgia in it. Very clean and the staff was great. The breakfast service at the restaurant was slow, but food was good.

21.09.2025 Thomas

Historic hotel, well preserved, fantastic lobby bar and restaurant. Very lovely breakfast.
Really lovely to spend a wonderful evening at dinner. Very friendly staff. 100% recommended

01.07.2025 Guest

Historical building. Good atmosphere.
Off course everything is good as hotel.

27.05.2025 Guest

Overall was a good experience! Only issue was there is no microwave in your hotel room so when you and your family come back from a nice dinner or just have leftovers in general you have to go to the main lobby where there is only one microwave inside a cabinet for everyone in the hotel to use! Now here’s my real issue….inside that cabinet…not microwave just to be clear…. was a dead roach….we immediately alerted the staff and they were shocked just as we were! Staff said they would handle it so with good faith the next morning my kids were hungry went back down to that same microwave and the roach was still there‼️‼️‼️

03.02.2025 Jaythe285

It was a fun trip. Every one there was kind and nice. They helped us out with things to do.

6 in our party. 5 meals served cold. 1 meal wrong item. Took 25 min. to replace. Waiter did not check back with us. Manager did not know what she was doing. Will never return!

16.12.2017 Juanita

Food was excellent as usual, loved the lobster tails, the server was very attentive just the way i like it. Got a chance to meet the new manager he came to the table, which was very impressive to my date. Helps to have a Landrys card, and being a regular ( downtown Cinti ).

15.12.2017 Trace

Bar staff super friendly. Great drinks. Food is of high quality, and the prices commensurate. Nice vibe with jazz music playing.

08.10.2017 Aegis287

Went for an average night out by myself. Seating was fast and efficient. My first drink was speedy and neatly placed. The food came before I could finish my review the menus for desert and drinks. It was hit and delicious. The chef had a conversation to me through his cooking, enlightening me on how he was able to masterfully combine texture and flavor at the level of a master. I was surprised on every bite and after trying a bit (or more) of everything I ordered in order to find Atleast one thing that was bad or average, I had to slow down because I felt like I was attracting too much attention.

19.07.2017 Darryl

I needed a quick lunch and this is probably not normally the place to get that. I quickly ordered mixed green salad and fish and chips. Salad was excellent. The entree came very quickly in the fish was fresh and hot and delicious. The fries were ice-cold and gooey. Manager came over and offered to take care of the problem. Great service. Too bad I was in a hurry

28.11.2017 Jacob

The chicken wings and nachos are probably my two favorite things to get here. Wife loves the southwest egg rolls. Not a huge fan of the burgers but they aren’t bad just don’t seem to have my style on the menu but still worth the price all around.

16.10.2017 Nicholas

Looking forward to a good burger. What we got was anything but. Waited almost an hour to get burgers for two. Our waitress dropped them off and we didn't see her until we were done. I ordered mine medium rare and my date order medium. Hers was red/pink throughout. Mine had no pink and was slightly burnt despite being 1/4 thicker than hers. On top of that we would have let or waitress know that the sides we received were not what was ordered but decided it was not worth waiting any more.

02.07.2017 James

We had a great experience here, and enjoyed great food and beer. Jenn was our server, very attentive and friendly. We will have to check out the location in our home town, but this visit has turned us into loyal Rock Bottom patrons.

28.05.2017 allison

I liked the location and it was a huge restaurant. The server could've been more attentive and personable. The food was great. I had the pretzel crusted chicken with beer cheese on it. If you want a decent restaurant right next to the fountain and city life, this is the place!

Very slow, my order sat at least 10 minutes with me there. The manager was rude not professional at all. She had an argument with the driver in front of customers, she also almost charged another customer for another order of cookies but I intervened glad I did messy store and we were given paper towels instead of napkins bad look for Papa johns.

17.09.2017 Shannon

Just called to order a pizza and they said they're closed but website says closes at 1:30am?? Awesome!!

01.07.2017 Blake

ANY PIZZA JOINT IN TOWN BESIDES THIS ONE! Worse pizza delivery experience in my 38 yrs of existence. Cant make this up... we're going on 3 hrs of waiting. Kid wanted pizza in the hotel so i order the kid pizza. It's 115am,called at 1030. Papa John's you've lost my business as well as my company's business. Ridiculous.

30.06.2017 Brandon

This was hands down the best experience that I have ever had with Papa John's. When the delivery driver delivered out pizza, I forgot to check to see if it was correct. When I got back to our room, I found that the the wrong pizza was delivered.

When I called back to get the correct pizza, Charlene answered and immediately stuck a new pizza in for us with no questions asked. We had the correct piping hot pizza in our hands in 20 minutes.

Charlene had an incredibly positive attitude and was eager to help. I just wish every dining experience would be as good as this one.

Thanks Papa John's for the great experience and thanks Charlene for your great attitude and willingness to help!

11.06.2017 Adnan

Called at 12:24am to ask for one pizza to be delivered to our hotel only 2 blocks away. They said they're running busy, close within an hour, but will have it delivered no problem in an hours time.

Called at 1:31am to inquire about our pizza and was greeted with "Thanks for calling Papa John's we're closed." Ok. I replied with "That's fine I'm calling to check up on my pizza." And the gentleman responded with "I'm sorry we must have forgot."

Rather than argue and requesting another pizza I decided to drop it, ask them to reverse their charges, and ordered a pizza from a competitors location and enjoyed my food in under 30mins. I'm unsatisfied with this Papa John's and don't recommend their service.
