Fantastic from start to finish

My husband and I were married 7/27/2019 and had an excellent experience with The Hotel at Oberlin. Stephanie wasn’t wonderful from the beginning, helped us through the whole planning process, and answered every question we had. The reception could not have gone better! Guests raved about the food and the reception space all night. I planned the majority of my wedding myself so it was extremely satisfying to see everything come together so perfectly in the end. If I would highly recommend The Hotel at Oberlin to anyone in the area looking for a venue to hold their reception at.

I had a very good experience hosting my wedding at The Hotel at Oberlin! Guests traveling from out of town absolutely loved staying in the hotel and reportedly felt “pampered.” Both Stephanie and Terri did a fabulous job organizing and setting up the reception - everything was so beautiful! That day was extremely busy for all involved, but Terri even came over to the head table to offer Chris and I a drink which was very sweet (and much appreciated!). The hotel staff were all willing to work with the needs and timeline of our wedding day, being very gracious and kind throughout. If I could do it all over, I would choose this venue in a heartbeat. Thank you!

This venue was amazing! Not only do they include extra items that other venues charge for, but their food was amazing and their prices EXTREMELY reasonable. Plus this venue provides a free room in their historic inn for the night with champagne. If I did it all over again, I would definitely go with them.

LOVED our reception!!!! The upstairs room is the way to go if you are having a smallish wedding! The food was excellent and the staff was AWESOME!
