World-class experiences without the world-class ego.
Here in Cleveland, we’ve got beef cheek in our pierogi, truffles on our hot dogs and beer in our donuts. Balance.
Whether you’re into the thread count of your linens or just a place to crash for the night, we’ve got a hotel room with your name all over it.
You know those places only the locals know? Let our experts help you find them with free maps, itineraries and insider tips.
History hasn't always been easy on us. But pressure can create diamonds. Come check out our gems.
The Destination Cleveland Public Relations team coordinates group and individual media visits throughout the year. Depending on the nature of the assignment, Destination Cleveland can assist with accommodations, suggested itineraries and more for journalists interested in visiting Cleveland.
Requests are handled on an individual basis and the level of support provided depends upon:
Destination Cleveland may request additional documentation of readership, web traffic data or social media reach prior to your trip.
Please allow three to four weeks' notice for media hosting and itinerary assistance. Discounted or complimentary arrangements are provided at the discretion of the host businesses and are subject to availability and interest of each facility. Black-out periods may be experienced throughout the year, especially at hotels. If complimentary accommodations are not available then Destination Cleveland will try to secure a media rate for the visiting press.
When accompanied by a Destination Cleveland staff member at meals, cost will be covered. However, all visiting press should plan to pay for some portion of their meals during their visit as it is up to the discretion of the restaurant to provide complimentary services. Complimentary meals exclude gratuity and, often times, alcoholic beverages and will only be for one person, unless the host wishes to extend the invitation to additional patrons.
Please understand that our primary concern is assisting members of the working media. Host locations are not always able to accommodate spouses, children and visitors accompanying working journalists. Destination Cleveland's policy prohibits the hosting of journalists if the primary purpose of the trip is leisure or holiday travel for that individual with family and/or friends.
