The Spotlight on Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Cincinnati Southeast Newport By IHG

Comfort and Convenience on the Cincinnati Riverfront

Modern and inviting, the Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Cincinnati Southeast Newport offers a relaxing stay just across the river from downtown. Located in Bellevue’s Riverfront district, you’re only minutes from Newport Aquarium and some of the area’s most popular music and sports venues. Expect clean, spacious rooms, a welcoming vibe, and thoughtful amenities to recharge after a night out.

Whether you're catching a big show or just exploring the vibrant local scene, this hotel provides a great balance of location, comfort, and value.

Why Concert-goers love it

This hotel puts you just a short ride (or walk, depending on your energy level) from many of Cincinnati’s top concert venues and downtown nightlife. Despite its proximity to the action, the area tends to stay quiet at night—perfect for unwinding after a loud show. The 24-hour front desk and flexible check-in at 3:00 PM make late arrivals easy, and the 11:00 AM checkout gives you time to recover the next morning. Plus, with easy access to rideshares and major roads, getting to and from the venue is a breeze.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends heading to a concert together
  • Solo travelers chasing that dream live performance
  • Couples planning a music-filled weekend getaway
  • Fans looking for a peaceful post-show night's sleep
  • Budget-conscious visitors who don’t want to compromise on location or comfort

Food and Drink Options

  • Free buffet, continental, or American breakfast—ideal after a late night
  • Plenty of walkable dining spots nearby in Bellevue and Newport
  • Vending machines on-site for those late-night snack cravings
  • No on-site restaurant, but delivery options are just a quick app-tap away

Nightlife Options

  • Quick access to bars and lounges in downtown Cincinnati and Newport on the Levee
  • Easy rideshare or taxi access for late-night returns
  • Hotel itself is more about relaxing than partying—ideal for winding down

What People Say

  • “Clean, modern, and well-kept” is a recurring theme in reviews
  • Guests love the friendly front desk staff and smooth check-in process
  • The indoor pool is a nice post-concert bonus
  • Many mention the quiet location despite being so close to downtown

Areas for Improvement

  • Not much in the way of on-site nightlife—this is more of a relaxing retreat
  • Some guests mention limited parking during peak times
  • No bar or full restaurant in the hotel, but options are close by

The Bottom Line

If you're heading to a show in Cincinnati and want a quiet, affordable place to crash just minutes from the action, this is a solid pick.

Barbara V, Obetz, visiting Truist Arena Mon, 15 May 2023

All 3 ladies that we met during our stay were so much fun. They seem to love the job and were eager to make our stay fun and enjoyable. Me and my best friend went out without our 6 kids to have needed fun and catch a show. I was happy to be greeted with a clean room and we had team of staff members pumping us up as we left for the night. Thanks for making my stay worry free.

Liked: Every single employee we met and cleanliness.
Disliked: Nothing at all.

Liked: My husband and I stayed with our 3 and 5 year old. It was clean and the pool was a hit with the kiddos. They also offered a good breakfast spread which was also a hot with the kids. Overall this is a family friendly hotel that I wouldn't hesitate to stay in again.
Disliked: The pool wasn't super huge and even though it was 90 degrees outside the pool water and room were cool. Which wasn't bad for my husband and I but the kids did get a little cold. I don't think that's it's a bad thing however because the pool room didn't feel stuffy like most hotel pools feel.

Nice hotel front desk people...

Liked: The room was spacious with two very comfortable queen beds and a pull out couch. The pool was nice but a little chilly and no hot tub.
Disliked: The cleaning crew we had dispensers for the shampoo, conditioner,and body wash in the shower but we didn’t have any body wash we told the front desk and they gave us little bottles but it took over 2 cleaning days to get it filled and it wasn’t our attendant it was another lady we flagged down in the hallway she was very helpful

We made it work to...

Liked: Location was great!!
Disliked: I didn’t like that o paid for a double queen bed room but was given a single with sleeper sofa. Had I known they wouldn’t accommodate what I paid for I’d went to an Airbnb instead.
