Bottom Line

Housed within a late-19th-century building, The Cincinnatian Hotel, Curio Collection by Hilton is a small, upper-middle-range historic property in the heart of downtown. While its bones might be old, it has been renovated to a modern style. It includes a fine-dining restaurant, lobby bar, fitness area, and meeting rooms, but doesn't have a pool. Its 146 rooms are modern and streamlined in bright tones, and some have balconies overlooking an eight-story interior atrium. Some suites include additional bedrooms and fireplaces, and whirlpool tubs. Travelers might also want to consider the nearby Hyatt Regency, which has a heated indoor pool.
