The Hilton Cleveland Downtown has opened on Lakeside Avenue. Overlooking Lake Eerie and the First Energy Stadium, the 600-room convention-style property is part of the city’s efforts to capitalize on its growing popularity.
Designed by Atlanta-based architecture firm Cooper Carry, the modern industrial-style structure is clad with reflective glass to ensure unobstructed views. The LEED Silver certified building is equipped with smart thermometers and occupancy sensors to detect when spaces are in use.
Artwork depicting Cleveland landmarks and monuments is also on display throughout the hotel, including a collage of 2,800 selfies submitted by local residents creating a mosaic of the skyline. Honoring the city’s musical history, guests can stay in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame suite, designed in collaboration with the Cleveland-based museum.
Included among the hotel’s F&B options is the Burnham, a three-level restaurant named after the city’s architect and planner Daniel Burnham. Bar 32, aptly named for its location on the 32nd floor, offers panoramic lakefront views, and communal workspace Eliot’s Bar and grab-and-go the Noshery are also onsite.
Boasting more than 50,000 square feet of flexible function space, the hotel offers the 20,778-square-foot grand and 15,729-square-foot junior ballrooms, as well as banquet space on the third and fifth floors and nine meeting rooms with floor-to-ceiling windows. Additional amenities include a fitness center and indoor pool.
