Anniversary flowers in Cincinnati

An anniversary order in Cincinnati is almost always a timed order, and the timing splits three ways. The hotel-weekend version lands at a front desk before check-in: The Lytle Park Hotel on Pike Street beside Lytle Park and the Taft Museum of Art, the Hilton Cincinnati Netherland Plaza inside Carew Tower at 35 W Fifth Street — a French Art Deco National Historic Landmark and probably the most requested anniversary address in the city — The Cincinnatian at 601 Vine, 21c Museum Hotel at 609 Walnut, the Renaissance Cincinnati Downtown at 36 E Fourth, The Westin on Fountain Square, the Hyatt Regency on West Fifth, Kinley on Race Street, the AC Hotel at The Banks, and across the river Hotel Covington on Madison Avenue and the Marriott at RiverCenter with its river-and-skyline rooms. The dinner version lands at a restaurant just before the reservation: the Downtown and Over-the-Rhine rooms — Boca, Sotto, Nada, Mita's, Jeff Ruby's Steakhouse on Vine, Salazar, Pepp & Dolores, Sacred Beast, Khora, Metropole inside 21c — plus Orchids at Palm Court in the Netherland Plaza's Art Deco room, Jeff Ruby's Precinct in Columbia-Tusculum, Carlo & Johnny in Montgomery, Primavista on the Price Hill hilltop with the skyline view, Teller's and The Echo in Hyde Park, the Montgomery Inn Boathouse on the river, and Coppin's and Bouquet on the Covington side. The at-home version — by a wide margin the most common for long marriages — lands on an evening residential route in Hyde Park, Oakley, Mount Lookout, East Walnut Hills, Mount Adams, Clifton, Mariemont, Wyoming, Glendale, Indian Hill, Anderson Township, or across the river in Fort Thomas and Covington's Licking Riverside.
