Near Hocking Hills State Park: an Ohio Favorite
The most-visited natural attraction in Ohio, located almost in our back yard, is the Hocking Hills region, renowned for its beauty in all seasons and the many recreational opportunities it offers. Our hotel is just a short drive from many of the most popular locations within the Hocking Hills: Old Man’s Cave, Ash Cave, Conkle’s Hollow, and many more areas.

While there are a variety of hotel and lodging types available to the Athens and Hocking Hills visitor, the Ohio University Inn & Conference Center is the only full-service hotel and lodging option in the region. We give you the chance to enjoy the bounty of the Hocking Hills during the day, while retreating to the comfortable indoor environment of our hotel when night falls.

Even if you’re visiting Ohio University or Athens for another reason, you should consider a day trip to the Hocking Hills. No matter what the season, you’ll find something to enjoy.
