    Best bed and breakfast experience we have ever had! My wife and I pick a different B&B to stay at each year for our anniversary, and while they have all been great, Clifton House was a huge step up. The property is very well maintained, elegant, but not stuffy. We stayed in the cottage, and it was wonderful. Bed was very comfortable, and again, despite the age, the cottage is very well maintained. Plenty of excellent restaurants within walking distance a few blocks away, and a movie theater and a few stores. But as nice as the property and location is, the best part of this experience was the breakfast. The owner and hostess, Nancy, provided the most awesome breakfasts we have ever had. And she takes the experience to next level, like having a really delicious and elegant breakfast at your own home with friends. And she has no end of information, from the history of the house, the neighborhood, or Cincinnati in general. While we had some ideas of places we wanted to go during our stay, we didn't have a set agenda, and she had plenty of recommendations, and didn't steer us wrong once. This is becoming my longest review ever, so to finish it, we are already planning a return trip!

    We loved Clifton House! The location was terrific for walking the neighborhood, including shops and coffee nearby. The House itself was beautiful and comfortable, and Nancy was wonderful--a knowledgeable host and talented breakfast chef.

    There are not enough accolades to use to describe The Clifton House..scintillating conversation, scrumptious food with impeccable presentation, magnificent home. Treat yourself with a stay. Thank you so. much, we will be back!

    Couldn't say enough about The Clifton House. Nancy is a great host and breakfast was excellent. Check-in was simple and our room was beautiful. We were able to relax over the weekend and just take a break from everything that is going on in the world right now. The location of the Clifton House is great with restaurants and stores a short walk away. Highly recommend staying there if you are in Cincinnati.

    Our stay at Clifton House was simply outstanding by any measurement. We were allowed to check in early and we were gleefully welcomed by the greatest host this side of the Mason/Dixon line. We chose the Cottage and couldn't have made a better selection. Our breakfasts were spectacularly presented with the taste to match. Nancy was absolutely fantastic! An awesome storyteller and a wealth of very specific information about Cincinnati proper. I would certainly recommend Clifton House to those seeking the best in bed & breakfast. We will definitely return in the not so distant future.

    Great B&B, right near Ludlow Avenue so there's easy access to shops. The host was very polite!

    We had an excellent stay at Clifton House. The architecture is terrific and Nancy is great host. Loved that we were only a couple of blocks from Ludlow. Great area for dinner. Highly recommend the Clifton House and hope to return in the Autumn.

    Our go-to place to stay when visiting our daughter who is attending UC. Fantastic accommodations, location is convenient to everything, delicious breakfast, and Nancy is an amazing host. Her recommendations for dining and/or activities never disappoint. You can't go wrong here!

    Nancy, the host was absolutely amazing. Before arriving she texted us to let us know where to park, and accommodated our early arrival with ease. She had fresh baked little goodies for us in the kitchen that were delicious. Breakfast was out of this world. The French toast and sauce was to die for. Sitting down and having a meal with people you've never met was such a cool experience as well. The cottage was so cozy, inviting and clean, the jacuzzi tub was also fantastic. My husband and I had never stayed in a Bed & Breakfast and this was bar far the best first experience we could have had. I highly recommend the Clifton House and look forward to staying here again!

    Absolutely lovely!!! The place was beautiful and comfortable and was pleasantly surprised with the breakfast made by culinary student chefs from the university!! We had amazing steak and eggs one morning and French toast the second. Nancy was a lovely host and made sure we had everything we needed, including some afternoon wine! Would definitely stay here again anytime I’m coming to Cincinnati.

    Talk About Service Nancy, you saved us last night! This is our second stay at Clifton House Bed and Breakfast in Cincinnati, OH. The first visit was for a concert at Ludlow Garage. We LOVED the house and its beauty, but the real gem was Nancy. In the first five minutes of meeting her we were sitting in the kitchen tasting the bourbon we’d just bought in Kentucky and sharing stories. The SECOND time we came in for Pink. Her prices stayed true to her FB page, no raised rates for a big name in town. My daughter and I got separated from my husband. We didn’t have a key to the house, or our room after the concert. She answered her phone at 11:30pm, gave us the information for entry and left a spare key to our room on the steps. Then proceeded to give us breakfast the next morning and didn’t bat an eye at our tardiness after our late night fiasco. Now, you are forever known as the most gracious host and marriage saver. 🤣 Thank you just doesn’t seem to be enough.

    What a perfect place to stay when visiting the area. The wife and I were in Town to see Ambrosia at the ludlow Garage. Very clise and a very easy and safe walk to and from. Nancy at the Clifton house was so kind and welcoming. The group of folks that were staying there were also very down to earth, and it was like hanging out with friends for the weekend at a really cool place. Can't wait for the next time.
