Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Ice Skating, hot chocolate and a beautiful Christmas tree.. Nothing better for the holidays! Centrally located around everything, this was a great place to be as a visitor.

We decided to check out downtown after business hours and found the Fountain Square alive with salsa music and dancers! It was wonderful! There were people of all ages there having a wonderful time. We found out that there is something (free) happening almost every night on Fountain Square. 100% worth checking out!

The square itself is relatively small, so there isn't room for much. There were some small tables set out with umbrellas along the south side of the square. There were 2 food trucks parked along the street, one selling Mexican food. I chose to get an order of Mexican street corn, which was decent. It was a workday and it past the regular lunch time when I was there, so maybe that's why it was fairly quiet without much going on. The fountain is pretty, but there isn't much to do except spend a few minutes walking around it.

Lots of great events and you can't beat the prices! The event planners should be commended. The bar is reasonably priced as well.

We stayed at the Marriott right next to Fountain Square, and our room overlooked the Square. A couple of nights during our stay there was free live music in Fountain Square, which was really nice! There aren't very many places in the area that serve food after, say, 3:00 pm, which was kind of inconvenient. Walking distance to the Taft Theatre, and we felt completely safe the entire time.

Walked through on our way to the Aronoff. If you want to go ice skating on a Saturday evening… make sure to sign up on their website several days early!!! It’s no longer first come first served. The fountain is off for the season now too.
