Surrounded by Good Options

Everybody knows the heart of Cleveland rocks. And yet there’s an awful lot to be said for basing a group visit or hosting a meeting at one of the many Cleveland Plus’ hotels situated just beyond the skyline including acres of free parking, highway access that gets you downtown quickly and proximity to the scenery of Cleveland MetroParks trail system.

If Cleveland Hopkins International Airport convenience is high on your list, look no further than the newly-overhauled Sheraton Airport Hotel (www.sheraton.com/airportcleveland) – the only place to stay that’s actually on CLE property, making it, in general manager Tom Rousher’s estimation, “about a twominute trip from the terminal” where you can check in and get your key while you’re waiting for your bags.

And for gatherings, the Sheraton’s got 13 meeting rooms totaling 20,000 square feet including the brand-new 2,500- square foot Hercules Ballroom.

Looking to the East? In Mayeld Village, the Hilton Garden Inn East/Mayeld Village (www.mayeldvillage.hgi.com) recently quintupled its meeting space with the construction of the 700 Beta Banquet and Conference Center. The region’s newest Hilton, built in 2009, now has its original 3,200-square-foot ballroom plus an additional 14,000 exible square feet in the attached center.

The Crowne Plaza Hotel & Conference Center South/ Independence (www.crowneplaza.com/clevelandsouth) is not only situated alongside two major Interstates, but also occupies an ideal gateway to and from Akron and Canton as well as the Cuyahoga Valley National Park. And its 10,000 square feet of meeting space feature two ballrooms, including one with a truly magnicent vista taking in the downtown skyline.
