Best Western Mariemont Inn

Cincinnati


It you’re looking for something distinct and whimsical where moose heads and castle-style tapestries hang from lobby walls, this wood-beamed, Tudor Revival lodge is it. The 45 rooms each have a fireplace, heavy wood decor and gilt-framed still life paintings. The century-old property is 10 miles northeast of downtown in the cute, walkable neighborhood of Mariemont, near shops and eateries.
