8 Bedroom House in Norwood, Cincinnati

Built in 1887, this former convent has been beautifully renovated to create a unique getaway featuring exposed brick, beautiful hardwood floors, 11-ft ceilings on the first floor, and an abundance of natural light. This house is huge, with 5,400 square feet of living space for your group to enjoy! All bedrooms have queen beds, sitting areas, light-blocking curtains or blinds, and double-paned windows to maintain a quiet and peaceful environment for you. You'll get a great night's sleep!
The space
Each of the three floors has its own new, efficient, and independent heating/cooling system, and the temperature in every bedroom can be adjusted to the preferences of individual guests.
With two large dining rooms and a fully-equipped kitchen, including commercial-grade and artisan coffee supplies, the Convent is perfect for your group.
No parties, please!
Guest access
You'll be able to access the entire house except for a one bed, one bath apartment hidden away on the main floor, which has its own separate entrance and will be vacant during your stay unless you'd like access to it (available for an additional charge of $50 per night).
Other things to note
We share an unfenced backyard and courtyard with the owners of a former Catholic rectory and with some urban farmers who tend parts of the yard. They’re all dear friends and if you're interested you can get breakfast made with fresh eggs and vegetables from the urban farm at For the Life of the World Café a block away! You’re nestled in the heart of a close-knit community of 100+ people, so it's not unusual to see a few people using the yard.

Summary: We had 13 out of town guests ages 5-75 who shared lodging at The Convent. It was immaculate, spacious and comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped with 2 ovens and 2 refrigerators. We used them all as well as ample counter space for meal prep. Our family loved the location close to the zoo and Reds stadium. Host Greg was exceptional, easy to contact before, during and after our stay. I give The Convent my highest recommendation!

Summary: The Convent was a perfect spot for our family of 13 as we gathered for our stay in Cincinnati. Ideal central location as we ventured out to Cincinnati Invitational, Kings Island, and many restaurants in between. A trip to the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center was well worth it and also gave a good feel for downtown Cincinnati. The Convent's spacious rooms and well equipped kitchen were appreciated.Lots of space to gather for meals/games but we also looked forward to our own private space to relax. Our host, Greg, responded to every question immediately, resolved our small issues, and we were thankful for that. So there you have it folks, a 5 star rating!

Summary: 12 of us stayed at the Covenant for our daughter’s wedding in Cincinnati. This was a great space with lots of room for cooking, eating , socializing and sleeping. There was plenty of dishes and linens and each room had its own heating/cooling and fans. The rooms were surprisingly quiet! It was great to have everyone under one roof and watching the hawks and their fledglings in the back yard was a bonus! The host was great, we would definitely recommend and stay at this property again!
