We live in the area and have watched it grow to what it is today and it is a place my family looks to for activities weekly. The founder Ruth Ann, is the most engaging, caring neighbor I have ever met. I'm so glad that we have someone who was thoughtful and intentional on creating a space to nurture the kids in the community from the start of school and after, pour into the parents and neighbors all while creating opportunities for connection.

Great beer and service. Tons of space and the food is fast, good, and portions are large.read more

MadTree had my heart, and there's no other way to say it. This is my parents' and my go-to spot…read morewhen they visit to hang out with some good drinks and food. We absolutely love their nachos and, of course, their variety of drinks. Their nachos were perfectly cheesy, and the guac on top adds the nicest flavor and oomph to the massive tray. For drinks, I tried the new 'Cincitucky' trail lager. It was super smooth and a nice, easy drink, definitely recommend if you're into similar drinks like Rhinegeist's Cincy Light. I think the atmosphere and the vibes are what keep me coming back to MadTree again and again. It is so warm, welcoming, and lively in there. The space is big and perfect to chat amongst others or watch whatever game is going on at the time. It is also so perfect for families and fluffy friends.

I had a great experience at The Summit Hotel, visiting for a work sales meeting. Because I was…read morecoming in late, I dialed their front desk and talked to a friendly gentleman that let me know I didn't need to worry about losing my room. The hotel has a parking garage underneath for approximately 100 cars. Lots of columns though so it's a bit intimidating pulling into the space. Check in was friendly and fast. My suite was lovely with a couch and tv space separate from the bed and bathroom area. I slept well in the king bed and appreciated the firmer pillows. No issue with the room other than the sun warmed it up and I needed to dial down the temperature. Thankfully it had cooled off before I returned. Breakfast is not included at the hotel; however, directly across the street is a food hall. Restaurants are onsite as well. Throughout our sales meeting the staff took care of us - from meals, AV and meeting room set up. I'd certainly recommend a group consider this space for an event. Outdoor patios are available as well if a rooftop party is on your wish list. Common spaces were clean and well maintained, including the bathrooms and workout area. There's lots of seating for working and small group sessions. About 10 miles from downtown Cincinnati exits.

A friend and I stayed here overnight for a concert we were attending nearby. The décor is…read moreabsolutely beautiful as soon as you walk into the hotel. It's huge! We stayed in a double Queen and the foyer was definitely the highlight of the room.The décor is absolutely to die for. It's seldom that you find room with bright red décor. The Mini foyer had a small red couch which was definitely a photo opportunity. The beds were definitely comfortable as I slept like a baby. The hotel sits on top of a slight hill so the walk up-and-down the hill to the nearby Qwench juice bar was a bit of a task but it sits so pretty. I would definitely recommend staying here on your next trip to Cincinnati.

They have art gallery to view spotlights on artists and pretty sure they have studio space that artists can rent if they don't have room at home.

They are fabulous organizers and are so responsive and communicative. They also think of every detail you could need in order to make the day run smoothly. But more importantly, they are kind and awesome people to work with. They understand that it can be heightened emotions and a stressful time and they run with it and make sure everyone feels heard and calmed down while providing reasonable solutions to any problems or points of concern! I had the best weekend ever and have gotten numerous comments from friends in the wedding and who attended how smooth the entire day went, and I know that's in large part to the team at Blue Dahlia.

I initially booked with Blue Dahlia thinking I just needed a point person for the day of the…read morewedding. However, I was pleasantly surprised by how much support they provided in the weeks leading up to the big day. Their professionalism, respectfulness, and grace helped bring our wedding plans to life seamlessly. As someone who doesn't trust easily--especially when it comes to something as important as a wedding--I was able to fully relax and enjoy the day knowing the Blue Dahlia team was in charge. During vendor meetings, I often heard, "Blue Dahlia already mentioned that--we're good," which gave me confidence everything was under control. Their insight and experience were incredibly helpful as I navigated the many details and decisions, particularly as someone who can be indecisive. Throughout every meeting, my husband and I felt seen, heard, and completely at ease. I truly believe every couple needs a day-of coordinator, and Blue Dahlia is the team you want by your side.

Brand new hotel. Brand new building. Fairfield Inn is lower tier in Marriot hotels but this…read morelocation doesn't feel any lesser than other brands. You have pool, gym, pretty big size for a hotel, walking distance to restaurants and grocery store, and gym. Water bottle fountain at every floor, must be a new concept. Bed is on the firm side which I like. Window AC unit is new so it is very quiet. I paid $140 in Jan. 2025. $140 for Fairfield is kinda expensive . Hopefully prices don't go up too much in the near future. Breakfast is included, it is ok. Scrambled egg, milk, juice, yogurt and probably some frozen sausage that they reheat. The only knock is that they only have black tea in the hotel. Usually hotel carry different kinds of tea bag instead of just one. 5 stars for being new and convenient

Good nutrition in addition to the normal breakfast buffet food Front Desk: 4 stars. Responsive for the most part and polite Housekeeping: 1 star. Only serviced the room once during our stay (should have been twice per company policy) and they had to be confronted to get it done bc they hung the dnd sign to get out of doing it.

It took over an half an hour for our food to be prepped even tho the place was relatively empty. Our oyster mushroom wings where quite tasty but the rest...

Herban Vegans was the first restaurant window that caught my eye. I'm not Vegan but menu looked appealing so I decided to get the lunch menu/ platter. It was the jackfruit ribs + 3 sides. I went with the savory mixed greens, mac, and potato salad. And my my MY! What a flavor explosion. The jackfruit was flavorful, I gobbled it up and wished they had given a bigger serving. The Mac! Where do I even start? It honestly tastes better than some Mac and cheese I've had. I don't know how they got it creamy and delicious and yet still vegan, but I'm a fan! The potato salad was also a yummy win for me. Stumbling on this restaurant was a pleasant surprise. Definitely check it out!
