About this property

The Carriage House Studio at Marion Hall Mansion

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

What a wonderful room and setting you have. It's more like a large apartment. The bed was super comfortable. It was a terrific location for us, just minutes away from our son and daughter-in-law. Definitely keeping Carriage house on our list of places to stay in the future when we come back to visit our kiddos again.

Comfortable, quiet, cozy space. Perfect for our weekend visit to the zoo and aquarium. Super-comfortable bed. Beautiful grounds and main home. Chester the (outside) cat and the roaming band of hens added to the homey charm.

Beautiful property - Can’t wait to come back!

We had a fantastic stay at this Marion Hall Mansion in Cincinnati! The property was exactly as described in the listing—clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The host was incredibly attentive and always willing to help or provide any assistance we needed, making our stay even more enjoyable.

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!

Comfortable and unique

The carriage house and 1897 historic Marion Hall Mansion pay a unique tribute to Cincinnati's turn of the century history. We enjoyed our stay very much. The WiFi was perfect for working from our laptops during the day and our pups enjoyed staying with us. The grounds are beautiful. We stayed here because we are selling our home in Cincinnati and needed a local getaway location so that we were not under pressure to have our home clean and show ready the first week of listing.

beautiful neighborhood in a storm

I arrived later than expected due to severe storms/tornadoes in the area, closing the Cincinnati airport. The unit I was to stay in actually flooded. Luckily I was able to stay next door. The owners worked very hard that day to direct me through the huge puddles to a safe dry comfortable place. I appreciated it! The next day I drove around just enjoying the gorgeous homes in the neighborhood. Hopefully can come back another time to enjoy the garden and environs.
