Despite some STEEP hills and slightly unclear signage, this view was beyond worth even a 10-15 min stop and stretch/stroll! It's obvious as you drive toward the pavilion why many people would consider this a special place! Its a beautiful, well-maintained, massive park with many trails and amenities which supplies a completely FREE, panoramic, jaw-dropping view of both KY and OH sides of the Ohio River. Despite there being a small wedding party taking pictures below the pavilion, there were several non-wedding park visitors respectfully enjoying the view, passing by, or taking photos. This will now be a treasured stop anytime driving through or visiting Cincinnati/Covington! Be sure you make a visit or small detour if in the area:)

There was ample tables and counter spaces to serve food and host activities. Our primary complaint was the AC. If the AC was running, we couldn't tell. We didn't really have hot food aside from 1 crockpot, but with about 40 people in the space, it was quite warm inside. There are curtains that go partway across the storefront windows, but they only provide some shade and do not assist in keeping the room cool. Lighting may need to be improved because it would be a bit dark without the natural sunlight, but thicker curtains to help block the afternoon sun would be an improvement!

A beautiful venue for a small wedding (or a good spot for a party or meeting).

The ceremony was outdoors on the lawn and the space is great for that. There's a dance floor area inside and plenty of space for any food or catering. The building has a nice sound system and televisions you can project slide shows or whatever you'd need onto. Victoria is the contact person and she is great, she will go the extra mile in service.

I've been here twice one for a work event that was more professional and another for Cincinnati Magazine's Sweet Victory which was more fun and exciting. I must say it works for either event. They have two levels so if you're trying to have something that's more private like a reception before the big event you can do that upstairs and then have a party downstairs. Parking is great too. Their staff is awesome and very accommodating to what you might need. The view outside of the golf course is absolutely beautiful and ideal for weddings - my mom told me this is wear my wedding will be....here's to hoping! Overall a great location!

I lived in Cincinnati for 4 years and I never even knew that the Carnegie Hall in Newport existed. I attended a friends wedding and they did both the ceremony and the reception inside the hall. The staff working here were super friendly and nice and very accommodating to everyone who was in attendance. The upstairs is where the wedding was at. The room was a little warm, but it was big enough to hold about 100 people. They did a very nice job with the set up of the chairs and the alter for the wedding. The sound system in the hall was great. For appetizer hour it was downstairs in the entry way. The area had two big rooms and a center room where the bar was set up. The food at the wedding was typical wedding food. It was good but not great. Overall I had a wonderful time at this wedding. I would for sure attend an event here or plan a wedding or function if I lived in town.

A staff member was waiting for guests when they walked in to hand them tickets to validate parking so we could park in the nearby garage for free. The ballroom where the wedding was held had tall windows that let in a lot of light. It felt a bit historic, with large chandeliers, but also enough of an elegantly-appointed blank slate where you could do what you want with decorations and it wouldn't clash. After the ceremony, everyone went up a floor to the balcony that overlooks the ballroom for cocktail hour, while the ballroom was flipped for dinner. The servers were friendly with drinks and hors d'oeuvres, and the staff in the ballroom pulled out the tables, which had been pre-set and waiting on the side of the ballroom. While anyone could see them setting up from the balcony, this did not cause any loud noises or interruptions. And then we headed back down for dinner, which was a mix of chicken and steak, I believe. It was delicious. Overall this venue was perfect for this wedding of less than 100 people -- the setting for a beautiful night.
