Discover
The former Metropole Hotel, on the National Register of Historic Places, has been transformed by a leading interior design firm, uplifting it to midcentury, home-like elegance. 21C showcases well-known and emerging artists through commissioned work and exhibits in five spacious art galleries that are open to the public, too.
Rest
Spacious accommodations feature deluxe and luxury queen and king suites. The muted colors, soft lines, comfortable furniture, and exquisite Italian fabrics make 21C an oasis from the bustle of urban Cincinnati. Those who travel with pets can book dedicated pet-friendly rooms and suites. The hotel also has allergy-free rooms for guests with sensitivities to dust, pollen, and other common allergens. The attentive service at 21C includes room service options from Metropole and laundry service, which can be a lifesaver especially if you pack light.
Eat and Drink
The award-winning Metropole restaurant’s large windows allow for an abundance of natural light, which is invigorating yet gentle.
Vanessa Miller is the executive chef preparing French and Italian seasonal dishes.
