Our favorite hotel in Cleveland Ohio

Glidden House is an excellent boutique hotel to stay. We have visited Cleveland a number of times and stayed in various nicer hotels. The Glidden House is, by far, our favorite place to stay. The hotel is gorgeous, the rooms are all comfortable and clean. The breakfast is wonderful. The surrounding area of University Circle is a great neighborhood to walk in.

Beautiful place. Felt like staying in an 18th century hotel with modern amenities. Within walking distance of several restaurants, shopping areas, museums and what seemed to be a very nice botanical garden (it was closed). Highly recommend.

We truly enjoyed the charm of the Glidden house! The morning breakfast was exceptional and the check in staff were very helpful with questions about the area. They recommended walking to Little Italy for dinner and Mia Bella was amazing! Lots of places to walk to for food. We originally booked here bc it was ‘in walking distance’ of Cleveland Clinic. I do not recommend walking there. Much too far! Uber was so easy though!
