Chances are, you've seen this showstopper of a hotel on Walnut Street downtown, but you might not know what is hiding inside.

The historic building that once housed the Metropole hotel was transformed into a modern space that now includes an award-winning hotel, museum, event space and restaurant and bar. The exterior remains grand and classic, but it's what you'll find once you walk inside that's truly unique.
If you follow the yellow penguins inside (they're visible from the front window), you'll find a few more of their friends, as well as a contemporary art gallery and fabulous boutique hotel.

There are more than 8,000 sq. ft. of exhibit space, which you can wander through to check out the rotating displays. The art is unique and modern and adds a vibrant energy to this historic building.
After you check in and head up to one of their 156 custom-furnished rooms, you'll discover even more whimsy and unexpected decor.

If you look closely, you'll see interesting tiles, rubber ducks, and more contemporary art throughout the room. But the space manages to feel residential and comfortable, despite being in a lively hotel and bustling area of downtown.
The views from the rooms and other parts of the hotel are also unique.

While your room is an urban oasis, you'll still feel close to the action and ready to experience everything the Queen City offers.
The Metropole serves seasonal meals within their restaurant, or you can enjoy it in your own room.

The food and ambiance are outstanding. If you visit during the warmer months of the year, be sure to head up to the Cocktail Terrace, which some argue has the best patio views of downtown.
The 21c Museum Hotel is ideally located across from the Aronoff and near endless other attractions.

You're within walking distance of amazing restaurants, museums, and parks. There's also a Cincinnati Bell Connector stop very nearby. This unique hotel offers it all in a space that will leave you energized, inspired, and feeling even more connected to our amazing city.
