Toledo, OH 43606
(419) 214-4700
(ext. 3 for front desk)

It’s so important to us you have the best stay possible. We chose this hotel for its central location and great reviews! Please note it is tad more expensive than we were originally quoted. Our group rate is $139/night, which comes to ~$164 after taxes. We deeply apologize for any budgeting inconvenience this may cause. Please reach out if this is an issue and we would be happy to help.

If you plan to book additional nights, it is best to call (419) 214-4700 extension 1 and book with a representative. They will ensure the best rates possible for the additional nights as only Saturday is included in our group rate. If we have enough interest, we will try and get the room rate for Friday as well. Please let us know what you’re planning! :)

Since we’re viewing this more as a fun party than a formal wedding reception, we are keeping the rest of weekend low-key and relaxed. HOWEVER, we would love to spend as much time with you as possible while you’re here. Here’s what we’re thinkin’. Everythings optional and not expected, of course. <3

LOCAL GUIDE

OUR BEST GLASS CITY RECOMENDATIONS

Toledo, Ohio, was initially part of the Great Black Swamp. In 1833, following the War of 1812, two villages were consolidated and became Toledo. Toledo becoming part of Ohio in 1837 after the Toledo War against Michigan.

Toledo's location on the Maumee River and Lake Erie made it a vital transportation center. Canals and railroads significantly boosted the city's growth and economy. Toledo became a major industrial center, particularly known for its glass manufacturing, earning Toledo the nickname "The Glass City". The city continued to grow throughout the 20th century, attracting a diverse population and expanding its industrial base. While Toledo experienced economic challenges with the decline of some industries, it has also seen periods of revitalization and remains a significant city in Ohio. It has been rewarding seeing the city experience development over the past couple of years.
