The Statler Arms Apartments is a historically renovated former Statler Hotel high-rise in the Theater District on East 12th Street and Euclid in downtown Cleveland that was converted into 295 apartments in 2001. The Statler Arms is 192 feet (59 m) high and rises to 14 floors above the street.

The Hotel Statler Cleveland opened on Euclid and East 12th on October 12, 1912 and contained 700 rooms. The success of the Cleveland entity soon led to the opening of "Statler's" in Washington, D.C., St. Louis, New York City, Hartford, Dallas, and Los Angeles. The hotel was expanded and modernized in the 1930s; these upgrades included 300 more rooms, the Terrace dining room, the new Gentlemen's Lounge, a library, and a Pompeian Room. When Hilton bought the hotel in 1954, the Cleveland was touted as one of the best of the former Statler chain. Unfortunately, an overflow of hotel rooms in the city eventually affected the once grand hotel, and occupancy fell. The hotel closed in 1967, although Hilton continued to manage the property. The Statler was converted into an office building before being restored in 2001.
