Cleveland is a United States industrial powerhouse, located alongside Lake Erie on the shores of the Cuyahoga River. The city extends for 50 miles besides the lake, and the metropolitan outskirts of Cleveland extend for a further 40 miles. Once known as Cleaverland, the name of the 'town' was shortened in 1832, by the removal of the letter 'a' because the full name was too long for the masthead on the local newspaper.
Cleveland will dazzle you with spectacular new attractions, world-class museums and culture, and Broadway-style performing arts. Many high-profile events and festivals will keep you looking at your calendar. Mix in family fun, exciting entertainment, hot nightlife, sports action, eclectic neighborhoods full of ethnic diversity, and a little shopping and dining on the side, and you’ll have a great vacation destination. From four-star hotels to bed & breakfasts, Cleveland offers the right accommodations to fit your needs.
