A lodging site since Phinney Mowrey's 1815 tavern, the present Hotel Cleveland opened in 1918 with 1,000 rooms on Public Square and became the anchor of the Van Sweringen brothers' Union Terminal complex. Charles Lindbergh spoke in its ballroom in 1927; Eliot Ness danced in the Bronze Room and later questioned a Torso Murder suspect upstairs. The Beatles lodged here before Cleveland shows, and Martin Luther King Jr. attended a Nobel dinner here in 1965. A roughly $90 million restoration returned the historic name in 2024.
