The hotel and rooms are beautiful and capture an understated cool luxury without being boring and stuffy. The food and service in the restaurant is spectacular. The menu is novel and execution is consistently good. The new Knowledge Bar next door is such a special addition to the guest options. Fabulous cocktails and interior design make this a must visit. read more

What a nice hotel. It's actually a really old building that has lots of spiritual energy in it. And the remodel they did is remarkable. Peyton checked me in and was the first person I met at the hotel . She is the kind of person every hotel manager wants on their staff. Seems to truly enjoy her job and was so kind and welcoming and funny. The restaurant was very good . Service was on point. If I would have any suggestions, they would be small ones. First, it would be nice if the bar was open late with some light snacks. There's not a place near the hotel that has a good top shelf and is open late. Secondly, it would be nice to have some local artist featured in the art on the walls read more

YE Gurl Says: Staycation Style at Hotel Covington Place: Hotel Covington - Covington, KY Stay: While the beau was off at medical training Sometimes a "tag-along" trip turns into its own little getaway--and Hotel Covington made that easy. The first thing that caught my eye? That curved headboard, giving full Santorini meets Arhaus vibes. Add in the playful wallpaper and chic furnishings, and the room felt both cozy and curated. The hotel sits right in the heart of a revitalized downtown pocket that somehow channels Nawlins energy--a central courtyard, lively atmosphere, and the kind of hum you only get when a space is loved by locals and travelers alike. It's easy to see why so many weddings and events happen here; there was one in full swing during my stay, adding a little sparkle to the night air. Though I was only there two days tops, it left a strong impression. If you don't mind the short drive over the bridge into Cincinnati, this spot delivers the perfect balance between boutique charm and city access. YE Gurl says: Hotel Covington is where southern warmth meets design-magazine detail--ideal for a quick getaway, a romantic weekend, or just tagging along while bae's busy saving lives. read more

Exceptional hotel experience. We chose valet since in city, and the staff was kind and helpful. Front desk experience was quick. The bar is surprisingly a lively fun environment and had a good crowd in the evening. Our room had a comfortable bed, stylish decor and was very quiet. The room darkening curtains work well and we got a sound nights sleep. The coffee bar downstairs in the morning has a free plain brewed coffee as a guest, or they can whip you up any magical concoction you want to pay for. Every detail was exceptional. The hotel is located within all g distance of quirky bookstores like hierophant and Hedge, restaurants like Epic Tacos and you could keep yourself busy without using your car. read more

Covington, KY is such a cute town and just across the bridge from Cincinnati. We heard Hotel Covington was the jewel, so we decided to stay here for a friend's wedding. It did not disappoint! Beautiful lobby! Great staff and service. Our room was charming and swanky. LOVED the bathroom. There's tons of restaurants and shops along the same block, so there's no less of a good time and little to no need for ride share. read more

We had the greatest work Christmas party here! We rented one of the suits and it was stunning! And the front desk and valet was so great.

I recently popped into Hotel Covington to purchase a RoRo's Cookie from their coffee shop. I expected a nice lobby as Hotel Covington has a nice reputation, but I was NOT ready for the vibes! The whole lounge, coffee shop, and bar area are combined into a big, beautiful space. Sophistication is as high as the tall ceilings. I would absolutely love to spend a morning getting some work done here with a hot drink from the coffee shop. read more

Updating my review of Hotel Covington more than a year later to again sing its praises! I stopped in on a Wednesday morning looking to mix up my remote work location, and decided to order a vanilla latte from the lobby coffee bar. I've had good lattes before, but this latte was definitely one of the best I've ever had (and certainly the best I've had in Greater Cincinnati). Coppin's uses espresso from Carabello, which is one of my favorite local spots, but I have to say there was just something special about this particular cup of Joe. Not only was the latte phenomenal, but the service I received from Brandon went above and beyond any regular coffee order. Brandon made me feel welcome and informed, and invited me to join the "large communal office" in the lobby. Brandon was genuine and friendly, and I won't soon forget this display of hospitality. I still have yet to stay overnight in the hotel itself, but after this wonderful experience just hanging out in the lobby, I'm definitely looking into planning a staycation soon. read more

Beautiful hotel! Room was fantastic. Definitely has an upscale feel throughout the building. Only issue was the bar service. Very disorganized and understaffed. Massive lines for 1 bar tender while 2 others did prep work right in front of all of us waiting. When I finally got my drink it was below average. Tasted like an Old Fashioned out of a bottle. read more

Had such an amazing experience here. Sometimes when you book at an independent hotel, you don't know what to expect. And in the past, we've had a really poor experience booking with an independent hotel. However, from booking to check out -- this experience was 5 stars. The hotel is beautiful, the staff goes above and beyond (so friendly), the room itself was high quality (down to the little things), and the restaurant Coppins did not disappoint either. I understand why this hotels reputation is stellar. If we find ourselves in Kentucky again, we certainly will book here again. I couldn't have asked for anything more, if you're looking for somewhere to stay in Covington, please give this place a shot! read more

We stayed at the new Hotel North. We decided to do a little staycation night across the river in Covington. I'm pretty sure we were the first people to ever stay in the room. There was some painter's tape in the bathroom and closet area. Also, when the blow dryer was running in the bathroom, the lights would flicker in the bedroom. I don't think the place is haunted, just an electrical issue but still spooky! Good thing I'm a strong guy. Also, it was weird that although the hotel was pretty empty, they placed us in a room right by a big fan blowing in the hallway. Seemingly to dry a leak? That said, the hotel is beautiful. It's very cool. The fixtures and accents in the room are sick. Clean lines. My style. The bed was super comfortable. Great blackout curtains. Great location. Very clean. read more

I arrived really late for a business trip and had selected this location based on a recommendation of a co-worker. Check-in was swift and its located on the corner of an active street in downtown. The room was cozy with little touches that I appreciate such as the little box on the desk area provided a historical overview of the hotel, an affordable snack bar, and good toiletries. I had lunch in the restaurant (Coppins) the following day and the burger was great. I enjoyed the coffee bar and sitting in open area. I took several business calls and enjoyed the space. The only con I noticed was that the lightening is quite low in the hallways. However, this is likely intentional to fit the aesthetic and theme of the hotel decor. TIp: instead of using the hotel address within the Uber or Lyft app, put in the hotel name. For some reason, the address routed the driver to another location (8mins) away in a non-desirable area. read more

Gorgeous hotel, had a lovely stay and would love to stay again. Especially beautiful for the holidays.

I specifically booked Hotel Covington to eat at Coppin's Restaurant and hang out in the pretty lobby and outdoor space. When I arrived they told me everything - both restaurants, both bars, the lobby lounge and all outdoor space is booked for a private event 2 PM-12 AM. I didn't even get to see these areas much less enjoy them! A cost of $300 to be confined to my room is really unfair, and had they told me this I would not have stayed here. Lots of hotels have events but they don't take the entire hotel away from other guests. I hear they have tons of events here, so just be prepared not to be able to use any of the hotel beyond your room...and the elevator. read more

I really enjoyed staying at Hotel Covington. They allow my husband to check in early to decorate my room! I had no idea! The parking was no problem...you can do velvet or self parking ...we did self parking and it was $12. They have a nice restaurant inside and also the hotel is surrounded by places you can stop and have drinks and food. The hotel is pricey (but I'm not rich sooo...lol), I did one night and it was a great experience! Staff was very friendly! read more

Great brunch. Fantastic espresso martini. Great atmosphere. We enjoy dining at the bar when available.

Great food and bar service with a cozy vibe. I cannot rate the hotel as I have never stayed but the Coppins restaurant within is a fun destination. read more

every thing it's a gem I love everything about it great restaurant rooms are super.

Came here for drinks and lite bites at the bar/restaurant called Coppin's on Saturday night. They have a very cozy and cute outdoor patio space. It's covered but the walls are open so perfect if you don't want to be inside or an enclosed tent due to COVID. They have spacious tables spaced apart with mini table heaters in the center and heat lamps to keep you warm. There is also a real wood burning fireplace in this area. They require reservations which is good as it limits the number of people that can be there. The cocktails they have are delicious and unique. They even have a winter drink menu. I tried the "Año Nuevo Nuevo Yo" which is a rich milky rum drink, and the "Snuggles by the Fire" which is a coffee flavored liqueur drink. Both were great. It was also nice and toasty at the table because of the heat lamp. The staff was so attentive and nice. They even brought out a bread basket. My friend got the roasted carrot curry with salmon which smelled delicious and she said it was wonderful. I would definitely like to come back for dinner as well as try their brunch! read more

I had the pleasure of staying at this hotel for my sons wedding. It was spectacular. The facility, the staff, the food, the drink the location; all of it. If you have occasion to be staying in the Cincinnati area I would recommend treating yourself to a stay here. Everything here is top shelf without top shelf pricing. This hotel is a throw back to yesteryear, which I am generally not a fan but they have captured it so well. I am sorry I didn't take photos, so go there and get your own. You will NOT be disappointed! read more

I absolutely adore this place. I have not stayed at the hotel, as I am a local and go for coffee, cocktails and dining. The coffee bar has excellent coffee and baristas. The cocktails are so special and perfect. And the food...! Most recently I had the gnocchi and the faroe island salmon and both were beautiful to look at and the taste was delectable. Best salmon I've ever had. Oh, and the lobby...so classy and lovely, especially now during the holidays. read more

Really enjoyed our stay here! Staff was great, rooms were incredible and had all the modern amenities. Didn't get to check out the restaurant but heard so many good things about it. I wish they had a pool but didn't have much spare time between all the wedding activities, even if they did. Location is great, next door to the event center, great bars and restaurants nearby, and down the block from Braxton Brewery. It's on the pricy side but would definitely spend a night here again! read more

I would like to play the recording of the music going on now at 10 o'clock. This is kind of ridiculous. You paid $300 for hotel room actually more than $300 and you can't go to sleep in your room because the music is so loud in the lobby. I don't mind the weddings every time we come here on a Saturday but this party in the lobby with a Music so loud is unacceptable. They should tell the guests in advance, instead their solution is ear plugs! read more

This is a pretty nice hotel but does not seem to live up to its high rating. It has great bars and restaurant along with friendly staff but when you get to the room, it's disappointing. When I got off the elevator, I walked down a hallway with dirty, stained carpets. When I got into my room, I found a dirty bathroom that still had surprises in the toilet bowl and hair on the floor. They sent housekeeping up to clean it and even he commented on how bad it was and how sorry he was we found it like that. The bathroom sink didn't drain well, so it'd be full of water by the time I finished brushing my teeth. The sink knobs were loose and would slide around. The shower door didn't close all the way and leaked into the floor. It also had a pretty loose handle. I asked for the items to be fixed or allowed to move rooms. They fixed the slow drain but that's it. I wouldn't have paid what I did for this hotel if I knew it'd be like this. I've had cleaner accommodations at Holiday Inns. read more

The bed in our room was very comfortable and we liked the added ambiance of the music playing and lights being staged upon entering. The room was lovely, stark, but striking with a modern boutique look and feel. The location is wonderful and within walking distance of The Grand Ballroom and may restaurants and bars. Unfortunately, Coppins was reserved for a private wedding and was "curtained off." What is usually a beautiful space became an awkward one for other paying guests. Hotel guests could not go to the bar for a cocktail and had to go to the basement level where a temporary bar was set up. There was water leaking from a light fixture outside of the basement hospitality room which made me wonder if it was safe to sleep in the hotel that night. (Water and electricity don't mix and can cause fires.) As we have found with some boutique hotels, form takes precedence over function. The bathroom faucets are counter intuitive, the toilet paper rolls are awkward to reach sideways and backwards for, and there is no towel rack for the hand towel. A makeup mirror was under the sink but when I opened it I found it was dirty and fingerprinted from whoever had used it last. I would have expected it would be clean, so that was disappointing. The makeup mirror wasn't useful because there was no place to set it up unless you wanted to kneel on the floor to put your makeup on. The only place with the proper height to set it up was were the bathroom mirror ledge is. It wasn't any more useful than the mirror in the bathroom was in the end. The towels have seen better days. They weren't nice fluffy towels I'd expect in this price range. Mine had a shredded edge. (I don't keep towels that are in this kind of shape. I use them as rags.) Not making this up, I'm including photos. I was disappointed, but am being generous and giving 3 stars because the bed was very comfy and I had a good nights sleep. read more

Lovely - both times. In the past few months I've had two memorable visits to Hotel Covington. For starters, I don't know what it is about a simple free coffee token in the bedroom but it really does it for me. You can exchange the wooden chip for a cup of freshly brewed local Carabello coffee at the barista stand in the lobby. Try your best to fight off the local cronuts- yikes, I might have to cave next time. Speaking of food, that leads me to one of my other favorite features of the hotel: the eats! The in-house restaurant boast not only incredible lunch and dinner options but a breakfast menu that is worth a visit on its own. I'm still thinking of the goetta (local sausage) and French toast we enjoyed during my first visit. You'll find some fun southern ingredients on the menu like sorghum syrup and pimento cheese. This former department store converted beautifully into a hotel (I imagine it was a labor of love). You'll find a mini gift shop at the entry, valet stand (affordable for only $12 over night) and a bar with lounge areas on the lower level. The rooms feature velvet headboards, cool colors and tile...and, if you're lucky, a killer view of the Cincinnati skyline. Both visits have been around $130-$150/night with taxes for a weeknight. Hoping to one day plan a leisure visit with my partner-in-crime. My only complaint would be that they don't currently offer a loyalty program-- ideal for frequent visitors/biz travel read more

Beautiful hotel. We enjoyed the courtyard area and the $15 restaurant credit. The location was great as well, with several walk-able restaurant options and being only about a mile away from the ballpark and Newport on the Levee. Our only complaint was that our room was a bit noisy. We could hear people outside very easily as well as people coming and going from the rooms near us. Overall a good experience though and we would stay again. read more

I like this place. I mean I really, really, like it. I've had the pleasure of visiting Coppin's, inside the beautiful Hotel Covington, on a couple different occasions. Each experience has been very special. From the charming ambiance to the beautiful décor, you can notice the attention to detail the moment you walk through the HC lobby. The restaurant consists of a long, chic bar and atrium seating with a glass ceiling that allows an amazing amount light into the space. The attention to detail theme continues in their food and drink options as well. I love the consistency. I've enjoyed a drink at the bar as well as brunch and both visits were fabulous. I'm a sucker for a good old fashioned and the one I had the pleasure of drinking here definitely caught my attention. It was strong and flavorful. I would one hundred percent order this again and suggest that you do the same. When it comes to brunch, the coffee was everything I needed in the morning after a long day and late night of work the day before. I can speak highly of their avocado toast with poached eggs and certainly recommend it. It's very citrusy and refreshing. The salad on top gives it a great crunch of texture. To top it all off, their staff is attentive and helpful. They are always eager to refill your water or get you whatever you may need. The restrooms are also extremely clean. Heck, I'll appreciate a hand towel over a paper towel any day. Overall, this is a great spot for a date, family dinner, special occasion, girls brunch, etc. I'm excited for yet another stay at HC and more delicious dining experiences at Coppin's. read more

Boy oh boy this is a gem. Bold statement alert, but this may be the best version of eggs Benedict I've ever had. SO flavorful and delicious. Second time here, with full intention of trying something new, but was suckered into ordering this again. Wasn't disappointed! A friend and I also split the Oreilles De Cochon. Amazing!! Definitely a must try for those who love or haven't tried goetta. Or if you're looking for something sweet. Outside of the food, the atmosphere is what you would describe as instagramable. It's the perfect place for photo ops. There was a wedding setup and bridal shower going on on the patio and in a side room, so definitely a popular place for group events. Street parking or a garage next door are best. 10/10 would recommend. read more

I have spent most of the last 20 years touring the world as a performer so I stay at a lot of hotels. Hotel Covington is without a doubt one of my favorites. The hotel itself is absolutely stunning: they approached the decor with an upscale, modern art deco take - the choices are bold and yet comforting. The bedding is luxurious and soft. The high ceilings give the room a wonderful airiness. The location is perfect for walking and exploring Covington (or Cincinnati if you don't mind a longer stroll) for its many shops and restaurants - check out Heirophany & Hedge if you want to explore something magical! Downstairs, the restaurant and coffee counter are both consistently good. The flavors are spot on and the service is always impeccable. The courtyard is gorgeous and it is a delightful way to start or end each day. read more

This is a beautiful space. However, we came in late night after a show, to see the beautiful Space and maybe see a friend who works there. We we planning to have some beverages, and if possible a few apps. Three couples out on a night without kids. The staff made us feel out of place. Like we weren't wanted. I feel like in hospitality we should always be looking for winning our the customer, making them so included they would tell everyone of the experience, however the flippant attitude toward our presence was so terrible. We just left. We went down the street. Had our drink and we're happy. Just couldn't walk away from how we were treated. I have never been into a hotel were I wasn't made to feel welcome. This place was that, they made us feel completely unwelcome. Sad. Do better. read more

Hotel Covington was recently named the best hotel in Kentucky (and 21C best in Ohio, by the way) so I knew I had to get to Coppin's quick to see what all of the brunch hype was about. The only way I can describe the experience is this: it makes me feel like every other five star review I have ever written should have a star deducted. It's that good! I got the spinach/mushroom omelette with the berry bowl. Have you ever gotten a dish and it looked like every individual berry was hand selected and photo-finish placed? It was absolute perfection. The newly renovated space is fantastic. It maintains a bit of grungy character with a fancy, modern update. There is so much natural light in their brunch patio. I cannot explain it but the space just seethes a quiet, serene aura that makes you feel like you're anywhere but Covington. Get here. It might have been a secret before, but it certainly won't be now - it's #1 in Kentucky for a reason! read more

If you are looking for a more elevated setting to enjoy a quiet dinner this is "the spot" in the Covington area. We enjoyed celebrating my birthday with friends in the dining room. The dinner menu was not extensive, but had a choice from the popular categories (fish, steak, salad, etc). The bar selection was more extensive than the food. Price ranges are high average, with a drink you can plan to spend $40-$50/person. Given the selection and price point I wouldn't recommend dining with young children, although there may be a children's menu we weren't provided. The patio, due to weather conditions, was not open. It is a beautiful area and we will definitely visit again to enjoy the outside seating. read more

My husband and I took an anniversary trip to Cincinnati and the service has been exceptional! There were certain amenities that we were unsure our stay included but the staff went ahead and made sure we had everything we needed. And the room service was wonderful, especially being able to place our breakfast order on a card outside the door. And let me tell you, I'll let the food picture just tell you all you need to know about Coppins. Yum! This is definitely the cleanest hotel I've ever been to, not to mention the most beautiful. The vintage touches throughout the building just add to the charm and elegance. We requested to be on a high floor for the view and could see the cityscape, and fireworks at Reds stadium, from our window. I will recommend this hotel to anyone who is heading to the Cincinnati/Newport area. The best place I've ever stayed! We hate to leave. read more

The hotel is a modern gem in the middle of Covington. Really beautiful. We came for brunch at Coppin's and were impressed bu how beautiful this place is and food was really good. We started with the Tots, the were done really different: they are layers of potatoes with cheese in between and then cut into squares. Then we had the Roebling Benedict and the Meats Omelette: The Benedicts were beautifully presented with local goetta from Covington; the omelette on the other side was overcooked, and not what we were expecting, but the potatoes on the side were perfect. We also had the English Breakfast Tea, it was made with real tea leaves and served on a custom made cup holder. Probably the best English Breakfast Tea I've had in a restaurant. read more
