CINCINNATI -- A fire in a second-floor kitchen at Downtown's 21c Museum Hotel forced guests to temporarily evacuate and closed some of its galleries and a rooftop bar through the night.
No one was injured.
The fire started a little before 7 p.m. Friday. All guests and staff safely evacuated, 21c spokeswoman Stephanie Greene said.
People were allowed back inside a short time later, once the hotel got the all-clear from the Cincinnati Fire Department and Cincinnati Health Department.
The hotel's Metropole restaurant will open Saturday for breakfast as usual, but second-floor galleries will stay closed, as will the rooftop Cocktail Terrace.
Greene said the rooftop, Metropole and second floor gallery spaces were open and operating as usual the next morning.
