About this property

Unique and private loft that was once the stables of the carriage house of Frank Enger. Mr. Enger’s family manufactured carriages and shipped them around the country in the 1800s. When Frank took over, he eventually began putting motors in the carriages and ultimately founded the Enger Motor Company. This beautiful space combines old-world character with the modern amenities of today. The fully renovated space highlights exposed brick, a new kitchenette, new bathroom, and beautiful furnishings.

You'll find the kitchenette is a perfect launching point for your night and for making everyone coffee in the morning while you relax. The private patio is great and beautifully furnished with plants and plenty of seating. It will be great for having a bottle and enjoying the evenings. This space is the perfect option for travelling professionals, nurses, doctors, or simply couples or small families looking for a getaway.

We tried to strike a perfect balance between the original character of the property and designing in features to make the home really enjoyable day-to-day.

Our guests will enjoy a private loft in the carriage house stables of our historic home. The 1.8 acre, fully gated property boosts lush gardens, secluded landscape, and various sitting areas around the grounds to enjoy.

Our family lives in the main house at Marion Hall Mansion and are available for anything you might need during your stay

So much character in this studio! I immediately felt so cozy and comfortable, like it was my own home away from home. Beautiful surroundings and a great neighborhood too. The hosts were communicative and gave clear instructions. I hope to stay here again someday!

Fantastic carriage estate getaway

A must stay when visiting Cincinnati and Xavier college. Location is within minutes of downtown. Owners are 5 star guests. The grounds of the estate are beautiful with well marked parking and excellent communication by the owners. Will stay again when visiting Cincy!!

Great place!

Loved our stay at the Carriage House. Perfect space for a couple with all the nice little touches. Communication was super easy with the owner. This is a shared space, as the description says…so if hearing the upstairs residents on occasion could bother you, maybe rethink this one. Otherwise it’s great! Planning on coming back.

Wonderful experience!

While looking for a place to stay for an overnight Valentine's Day getaway, I came across this wonderful property. Just a short drive from our favorite downtown restaurant, this charming carriage house made for the perfect retreat for the evening. The historic charm of the studio suite adds a touch of class that is memorable. Matt, our host, was wonderful, promptly responding to any questions I had regarding our stay. We will definitely be returning!

Charming Carriage House

My husband, 2 dogs, and I loved our quick jaunt in Cincinnati! The accomodations at the Carriage House at Marian Hall were wonderful, we only wish we had more time to spend here! The location was central to everything we wanted to do in Cincy, and provided a safe and comfortable stay for my family! We look forward to following along on social media how Marian Hall!

Stay here if visiting Cincinnati!

We booked this charming studio for the weekend while in Cincinnati for a concert. The property is beautiful and the location was great! We were back after our sold out show at Heritage Bank in literally 10 minutes! The hosts had great communication and there was everything we could have needed. I can’t imagine staying in a generic hotel when you could stay here. I will definitely book again if coming to Cincinnati!
