Good, but...

Hotel istself, including our room was nice and the staff was great. Would not recommend staying on the side that faces the stadium. There is a large video board that runs ads 24/7 and reflects bright LED lights off the stadium and into your room all night long. Even closing the curtains, there was still bright light shining around the edges into our room. We will happily stay here again, as long as our room does not fave the stadium. Also, quite noisy outside until about 3am. Manageable, but prefer away from the street room.

The hotel was amazing. The staff was very friendly and helpful. From the hotel bar, breakfast area, to the modern rooms, the AC Hotel had it all. Plus, it's right next to Great American Ballpark and located on the strip with numerous restaurants and bars. Will definitely be staying there again.

AC Marriott Cincy at the Banks

The location was great! We were there to see the Phillies vs Reds and it was right across the street. A few improvements I’d recommend are: 1. Add a restaurant to the hotel; 2. Supply free coffee/tea/water station in the lobby; 3. Include a free continental breakfast for the price you pay per night; 4. PUT A RUBBER SHOWER MAT IN THE TUB! It is extremely slippery!!

Excellent hotel, close to the ballpark too. Staff was excellent; everyone was welcoming with smiles and good mornings. We were there to see the Reds/Braves, and loved our room with balcony. Excellent bed, super clean room, nice shower, etc. Our booking included breakfast — not typical but tasty with good coffee. Parking is valet only; parking team was great. Check-in was with Deante (not sure I spelled that right) and he was extremely personable and gave us all the info we needed. We’ll plan to stay here again the next time we’re in town!
