Rated 3.0 out of 5.0 by JJJJj1234 Not Bad. Ehh.
It wasn't a bad experience but I've had better. The room was clean. The biggest issue I had was the walls were thin and you could hear everything. I could hear out in the hall, the rooms on both sides and rooms up above. Maybe if the rooms were spread out more. It seemed like everyone in the whole place was in one spot. Maybe this was just me and not the reality but I felt very aware of my surroundings. Maybe they really has a lot more people that day then it seemed.
Pros: staff was nice, breakfast was fine, water was hot. Good value. Had a pool, wieght room etc. Great location for visiting Newport.
Again, it just didnt wow me because I was scared to relax, turn my tv up, hear something I shouldn't. I whispered when talking on the phone.

Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by WMNOMAD Place to stay when visiting Newport on the Levee
The beds were very comfortable. The staff couldn't have been nicer. It is very close to the BB Riverboats, Newport on the Levee, Covington KY, Cincinnati. The rooms were quiet, it is easy to access 471 in either direction. It is just a short drive to downtown Cincinnati. There are lots of places to eat very close by. A Frisch's is right in front of it so you can walk to it and there is a Burger King, Joe's Crab Shack and other restaurants a short walk from it as well.

Rated 1.0 out of 5.0 by Colklinke49 Horrible place
The place is old, the room smelled like someone smoked in it.
In my opinion not Holiday Inn Express worthy! Would not and will not stay there again ever. It's a dump!!!

Rated 4.0 out of 5.0 by Humpty Excellent location
The staff was very friendly and the room spotless. We enjoyed the breakfast as well. The hotel is in a very convenient location and we enjoyed our stay. The pillows were a little lumpy. Fix those, and you get another star.

Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by mari50lyn caring and helpful
We came there for the first time in our lives togo to the Childrens Hospital.
Yur staff made us feel welcome, helped us find our way around and were sensitive to our needs.
It felt like all the people were there just to be kind to us.
We were not able to relax very well, but only because of the stress we were under due to our medical troubles.
The rooms were great.
Thank you for the prayers.

Rated 4.0 out of 5.0 Customer Service
While traveling for business, I had my secretary book my room for the hotel. When my family and I went to check in, my secretary accidently book my room for the previous night. The manager at the hotel was kind enough to credit my room for the night that was booked and I didn't show up. That is GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE! My daughter will be attended the University of Cincinatti, and this will be my hotel of choice over the next 4 years.

Rated 1.0 out of 5.0 by Aftgog Poor Stay
I am a platinum member, and I stayed here for three weeks and had a terrible experience. The first two weeks weren't horrible, although the hotel smells like smoke really badly.
But on the third week, I was given a room where the keys did not work. Then they had to move my room, and in doing so, the person at the front desk stated my new room number outloud. There was some one in the lobby at the time. Later on that night, I got a call with someone claiming to be at the front desk asking for my credit card number because "the hotel reservation system had gone down." He knew my last name and everything. I told him I would come downstairs because it sounded fishy to me. I went downstairs and the person at the front desk said that the caller had called the front desk and asked for me and my room number. The only person who could have known that would be the front desk staff and the person in the lobby who overheard the switching of my room number. Not even my immediate family new my room number as I always speak to them by cell phone.
Finally, my business plans got changed at the last minute on the next week, and I was unable to call the hotel to inform them that I would not be there. I called them the next day, and explained the situation and that I had stayed there for three weeks, and that I am a platinum member. They refused to reimburse me despite my bad experience, and despite my calling to explain the situtation, and despite me being a platinum member.
The hotel is NOT recommended. I will never stay here again, even though I am in this area many times per year.

Rated 4.0 out of 5.0 by Em45 Extremely Clean
This is probably the cleanest hotel I have stayed at in a long time. I had 3 little girls and a friend with me. We enjoyed the pool. The location was great. Breakfast was just ok, but the breakfast room was clean and it was included in the stay, perfect for 5 people. The walls were paper thin and you could hear people and the elevator and babies crying from about 5am. But again over all very pleased because of value, location and especially cleanliness. I would stay here again..

Rated 1.0 out of 5.0 by NotAGoodPlace Don't stay here
This place was nasty. Daughter arrived first (12/21/12) and she was suppose to have a suite. We were to arrive later and I had made a reservation for the 22nd. The suite she was given was the size of a regular room or less and it was dirty. She asked for another room and accepted that one. She then opened the sofa bed and the coils in the mattress could be seen. It was dreadful.
The older man who was (Owner, Manager, etc ?) was very rude upon checkout on the 23rd. We moved on to another hotel. Would not recommend this nasty place to anyone.
Honestly I thought I had booked the room for the other Inn on the river. I did not know this hotel was built in the parking lot behind Frisches Restaurant. I would have preferred to sleep in the restaurant. We were happy to get away from there.
Couldn't even get a decent pillow! Nasty Place!

Rated 2.0 out of 5.0 by BonnieM Nice place if you don't have kids
The front desk staff was not helpful. Claimed that there was a 24 hr cancellation policy when the reservation printout from the website said cancellation was before 6 pm on the day of the reservation. She grudgingly cancelled one reservation because our plans had changed and we already had another one at this same hotel.
When we checked in we were faced with a $250 noise penalty that we had to sign off for. Our children are well behaved but we felt we had to walk on eggshells to avoid being slapped with an extra $250 charge. Had we known about this ahead of time, we would never have stayed at this hotel.

Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by CycleCindy Suite was huge
Booked the suite over Thanksgiving holidays when in town visiting family. The suite was huge and gave us lots of room to relax and not trip over each other. The hotel location is very convenient to downtown and Mt. Adams. It was great.

Rated 4.0 out of 5.0 by EdgarCV Strategical location
Was my first experience at this location and the people at front desk very nice and the rooms very clean..the better for location was that is so close of restaurants with great view of the Ohio River, even I went for business reason but at night I had chance to select a good restaurant from may options close to the Hotel.
PD. The free cookies at front desk was the best!

Rated 4.0 out of 5.0 by ed53 Pool closed
Our main reason for choosing this motel was we had stayed here before and enjoyed it. We were traveling with our Grandsons both times, so we had told them we were going to stay at the same Hotel, the one with the pool. When we got checked in and changed to our suits we went done and found the pool closed and drained for repairs. We had no idea or notification that pool was closed. We would have found somewhere else to stay with a pool had we been informed.

Rated 4.0 out of 5.0 by Dan2831 Good Choice
I was in town for a conference at the convention center. The hotel was a few miles from the show, but the public bus service came right to the hotel, so getting to and from wasn't to bad. The room was nice. The only negative was the fact that the pool was not open while I was there.

Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by Louise70 Convenient location and quaint shopping
If you want to be near everything but not in the heart of downtown Cincinnati this is the Holiday Inn Express for you. We were in town for a wedding so we did not really relax but the location was perfect, the breakfast was fresh and hot with something to please everyone and the room was clean and spacious.
If you have time turn right at the main road and in less than a mile you are in the heart of a quaint shopping "main street". Wonderful local shops, many small great places to eat and a fabulous local candy/ice cream shop #don't miss their chocolate covered carmel apples#. Lots of benches for the guys to wait while the ladies shop. I had a blast. Take the time to walk up a side street and check out the lovely old homes #great architecture# or look in the opposite direction and glimpse the river!
