Hotel Cleveland features 491 guest rooms, including 50 suites, and a sophisticated new lobby punctuated by carefully retained historic features.

Two new restaurants fully embrace the Cleveland spirit, including Maker, quickly becoming the city's hottest spot for lunch, happy hour and dinner. Unmatched views of Public Square paint a vibrant backdrop for chic décor, buttery leather seating, bespoke lamps shaded with vintage Cuyahoga riverfront images and an eyepopping backbar. A massive green crystal chandelier dazzles overhead, telling guests how special this place has been — and always will be — to Cleveland. Uber talented chef teams designed Maker's menu of small plates and shareable dishes, along with imaginative entrees and sides — all envisioned through a distinctively Cleveland lens. An artisanal emphasis on craft cocktails and alcohol-free culinary concoctions make Maker the place to gather or unwind. Just a few steps away, Mowrey's offers ala carte American-style breakfast favorites with very special Cleveland twists. Mowrey's will also be available for tucked-away private dining experiences. The Mowery's moniker is a nod to the tavern and inn that sat on this very site in 1814 tavern, giving the corner a rich 200-plus-year history of providing hospitality to Cleveland visitors and locals.
More than just a place to stay, gather and dine, Hotel Cleveland is a living narrative that not only celebrates the city, but is shaped by the same dynamics that built Cleveland itself. The hotel brings its storied past into the future, with every guest taking part in the city's unfolding story.
From presidents and royalty to rock stars and sports legends, the Hotel Cleveland and its predecessors have hosted some of the world's most prominent travelers. Luminaries like Martin Luther King, Duke Ellington, Charles Lindbergh, Harry Truman and Eleanor Roosevelt have visited. Using the latest NFC code medallion technology, guests can stand before historic imagery and artworks to be transported to the city's - and the nation's - most important moments.
