Ohio University Inn And Conference Center - A campus hotel with renovated rooms, conference facilities, and on-site dining

Located on Ohio University's campus, this 3-star Athens hotel features 139 newly renovated rooms equipped with refrigerators, microwaves, and work desks. Ohio University Inn And Conference Center houses Cutler's Restaurant, known for local ingredients and steaks, alongside the Bunch of Grapes Tavern offering cocktails and light fare. The property provides 4400 square feet of meeting space across five rooms and a ballroom accommodating up to 480 guests. Recreational amenities include a seasonal outdoor pool and 24-hour fitness center. The venue's conference facilities incorporate modern technology and flexible layouts for corporate events. From the property, Kennedy Museum of Art and Dairy Art Barn are 0.5 miles away, while Southeast Ohio History Center lies 1 mile from the premises.

Pros

Direct access to Ohio University campus buildings and facilities

Modern conference spaces with state-of-the-art technology

Recently remodeled Cutler's Restaurant with locally-sourced menu

Outdoor patio space with fire pit for events

Cons

Outdoor pool only available seasonally (May-September)

Limited dining options between lunch and dinner service hours

“The hotel struck me as a convenient base for exploring both Ohio University and the surrounding Hocking Hills. I appreciate that they welcome pets, which is a real advantage for some travelers, and the on-site dining seems a step above typical hotel fare, particularly Cutler's Restaurant. What stands out, though, is their commitment to conferences, especially the Meeting Bubble Program, which signals a forward-thinking approach.”
