Hotels:

We have negotiated a $99.00 per night deal with the Radisson Cincinnati Riverfront, which is located just across the river in Covington, Kentucky. We HIGHLY suggest you take advantage of this convenient locale and reduced rate, as many hotels in the downtown area can be very expensive and charge extra for parking. The hotel offers free parking and less than a 5 minute drive to the competition site. In addition, each room reservation comes with two free breakfast vouchers. Their website can be found at http://www.radisson.com/covington-hotel-ky-41011/kycoving and they can be reached at (859) 491-1200. Please mention "UC Mock Trial" when making your reservations for the reduced rate.

Dining:

Downtown is filled with restaurants open on both Saturday and Sunday. The Carew Tower mall has a food court at 5th and Vine Streets, a 5 minute walk from the courthouse, open for lunch. For more dining options in downtown Cincinnati, check out: http://www.downtowncincinnati.com/whattodo/eat.html

Parking:

We have secured free parking for all judges this year at the Parking Company of America lot at 419 East Court Street. The lot is about two blocks away from the County Courthouse, separated by the Hamilton County Justice Center (i.e. the jail). It is directly behind the 401 East Court St. building. You will need to place our parking pass on your dash while parked there.
