I liked the Butterfly Exhibit but the staff should have made it clear to parents not to have the kids running all around the room chasing down the butterflies. The wait in line was partly outside and it was too cold for that. There was only one staff members selling tickets with 100 people or more in line.

Currently showing butterflies of Morocco. My 4 year old loved it and overall had a great experience. My 2 and 1 year old seemed mildly interested, so my recommendation is 4 and up. Only have to pay for ages 5 and up so we ended up paying 14 total. I would highly recommend but be ready to battle crowds if... More

I was hoping for more butterflies...I have experienced a similar exhibit in Florida. I was disappointed at the few butterflies. I am glad the admission charge was reasonable, about 7.00 a person, less for kids and seniors. There really is not much to experience, there is a beautiful waterfall that we captured the grandkids photos. This will likely take you... More

Located in beautiful Eden Park, the conservatory has alot to offer. I love to take photographs, and had opportunities galore. The butterflies exhibit was wonderful and suitable for all ages. I enjoyed the waterfall and the orchids and the cacti rooms. If I lived in Cincinnati, this would be where I came to de-stress. The employees were very friendly and... More

What a nice bonus for our weekend trip to see the butterly show advertised that morning in our room. We had so much fun. There were so many types of butterlies we had never seen before.

I have been to the Conservatory 3 separate times for the annual butterfly show. It's in a very pretty setting in Eden Park (near the Art Museum). The building is smaller than others I've been to but is very well-kept and clean. They have a good variety of plants and their exhibits are very well-done and pretty. The size actually... More

we went to the butterfly exhibit. Our boy, 5 & 3 had a great time. It wasn't all that crowded when we went and it was an easy outting for a few hours.

It is a beautiful place to take pictures. Garden displays are colorful, always so well maintained and change from season to season. While they do ask for donations sometimes, there is no fee to enter. The little gift shop is full of lots of interesting tokens for adults and children alike. A great place for a couple or family.

When we are visiting relatives for Easter in Cincinnati, we always make a stop at the conservatory. The lush floral display and strong fragrance make you feel like Spring is around the corner. The flowers make a great back drop for family photos. The building isn't large and can be viewed in less than an hour, so a good attraction... More
