Hotel: Aloft Newport on the Levee
Would I stay again? Yes. The hotel is on the Kentucky side of the river but very convenient to downtown Cincinnati and downtown Covington restaurants.
Restaurants:
Lunch (Dayton): George’s Family Restaurant
Would I dine again? No. Well, if I was close, sure since it was a local family “diner” with nice people but not a real food experience.
Dinner: Hofbräuhaus Newport
Would I dine again? Yes. We walked across the street from the hotel due to snow and the late hour and listened to the band and had a good meal.
Lunch: Frida 602
Would I dine again? Yes. I have been here multiple times and if I am headed to the Cinci airport, this is my stop. This time I called in my order on the way to the airport and after getting a text from American Airlines that I was delayed, I took my to-go box, sat at the bar and ate. Brussel sprout tacos..you cannot go wrong!
