The property was excellent and well restored. Staff gave excellent dinning recommendations. We choose the French resturant down the alley. Great choice. We will definetly stay again when in Cleveland. Easy parking, safe walkable area.
Going to Cleveland Clinic every year makes this hotel our number 1 in the area. Clean, quiet and free breakfast. Parking is an additional $20 which we feel is a but much since we pay at the Cleveland Clinic too.
A most welcoming, charming, historic home! Staff friendly, engaging, helpful! Quick walk to sites of interest and places to eat. Room was comfortable, quiet. Delicious breakfast in spacious setting. So glad I stayed!
The property is an excellent historical property that is in walking distance to Little Italy restaurants and multiple museums and the Cleveland Botanical Gardens. The staff is always very friendly and helpful. These are the reasons we choose to stay here when we are traveling through Cleveland.
We love staying at the Glidden House. It's a beautiful property and is in a great location near the Cleveland Museum of Art and Botanical Garden. Easy walk to area restaurants. Great breakfast buffet. And love the original works of art throughout the hotel!
I really enjoyed my stay at The Glidden House. The property was very clean, comfortable, and welcoming, and the staff was pleasant throughout my stay. I also loved how conveniently located it was, with easy access to everything I needed while visiting Cleveland. The complimentary breakfast was perfect and delicious, and it was a great addition to the overall experience. I felt very comfortable throughout my stay and would definitely book The Glidden House again if I make it back to Cleveland!
Conveniently located to Case campus. Very classic old school. Room air temps are hard to regulate. Our room was so humid that the bathroom mirrors were fogged up without even using showers.
Breakfast was pretty good. We were surprised that Parking is an extra $15 fee per night. Front desk friendly.
The Glidden was a beautiful hotel with spacious rooms, attentive staff and a good breakfast. The historic building is very well maintained and the surrounding area is wonderful with a variety of museums and activities to keep you exploring.
Exceptional breakfast, not like anywhere in the area. Very kind and welcoming staff as well. The atmosphere both in the room and the lobby was great, it was cozy, and the vintage decor surrounding us felt like a nostalgic trip to the 50's. The beds in the room were the softest we've encountered so far, perfect for a stay after a long day of travelling. We would definitely recommend this place and, if blessed with an opportunity, stay here again.
The property and hotel were beautiful in a gorgeous part of town surrounded by museums, cozy coffee shop, and a park-like setting. The hotel breakfast was wonderful. The scrambled eggs, bacon and pastries were perfectly prepared. Convenient location and easy drive to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, concerts, and more. We cannot wait to return and stay again. Highly recommend!
