The Glidden House, a 3-star hotel rated 9.1/10 on Booking.com, sits on the grounds of Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland's University Circle, 10 miles from Cleveland Hopkins International Airport. This historic boutique hotel near airport is surrounded by cultural landmarks like the Cleveland Museum of Art and Severance Hall, both within 0.3 miles.

Historic Accommodations

Dining & Libations

A complimentary European breakfast is served in the former library, while Palette Lounge offers signature cocktails from 4 PM. L'Albatros brasserie, steps from the hotel, features French cuisine and an extensive wine selection. The property partners with Plum Market for locally sourced sandwiches.

Cultural Exploration

University Circle provides access to the Cleveland Botanical Garden and Museum of Contemporary Art. The concierge offers recommendations for attractions like Progressive Field, 3 miles away. GuitarMania charity project displays artist-decorated guitars throughout the area.

Event Services

The 2600-square-foot Juniper Room accommodates meetings for up to 150 guests. Sales staff coordinate events with catering from exclusive local partners. High-touch surfaces receive frequent sanitation, focusing on elevator buttons and handrails.

“The Glidden House is a unique stay within Cleveland's University Circle, nearby the museums and Case Western Reserve. Once a mansion, the building retains an historic, elegant feel, and the architecture and grounds add a lovely touch. I think this could be a solid choice, particularly for those seeking a wedding venue or those visiting the nearby cultural institutions.”
