The hype
Travelers love the 'cool' decor and the incredibly friendly staff, but often balk at the small standard room sizes.
Kimpton Schofield Hotel
$150-280 / noche
Reserva esto si You want a stylish, pet-obsessed basecamp in the dead center of Cleveland's sports and theater action.
Por qué a la gente le encanta
- The zero-fee, no-restrictions pet policy (they literally welcome anything that fits in the elevator)
- Betts restaurant serves genuinely good healthy-ish food that doesn't feel like 'hotel food'
- Walking distance to Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse, Progressive Field, and Playhouse Square
Resumen rápido: A gorgeous historic renovation that nails the boutique vibe but charges big-city prices for parking and lacks a pool.
Reseñado por @rayannebarker: I was blown away by how welcoming this place was for Charlie. They didn't just tolerate him; they spoiled him with treats, beds, and bowls. Being able to relax on the patio with a drink while he chilled with us made our family trip to Cleveland absolutely perfect.

Limpieza y Mantenimiento
8.5
- Housekeeping: Generally reliable, though 'on request' daily cleaning can sometimes be missed if not confirmed at check-in.
- Bathroom hygiene: Sparkling. Grout lines are usually clean, and the walk-in showers are well-maintained.
- Maintenance: The historic building has quirks—creaky floors or slow elevators—but nothing broken or dirty.
- Linens & towels: Fresh, white, and fluffy. No reports of staining or wear.
- Odors & scents: Lobby smells like the signature Kimpton scent (subtle spice/floral). Rooms are generally neutral, though some lower floors catch exhaust smells from the street.
