Hampton Inn & Suites Columbus-Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay at the Hampton Inn & Suites in downtown Columbus! Our room was spacious and clean, the hotel was well maintained, and the staff was friendly and accommodating. The location was convenient, with plenty of restaurants nearby. It was also an easy walk to the pickup and drop-off stop for our event shuttles. Complimentary breakfast was one of the main reasons we booked here, and we appreciated having it included. We’d happily stay again!"

Le Méridien Columbus, The Joseph

10/10 Excellent

"The staff is so friendly and willing to help. This is our second stay at the Le meridian and will continue to be our go to in Columbus. The spa is a huge plus!"

Courtyard by Marriott Columbus Downtown

8/10 Good

"The courtyard by Marriott is located in downtown Columbus. The location is within walking distance to a lot. The convention center is a 5 min walk, German village is about a 20 min walk and the real downtown is about a 15 min walk in the other direction. This was the main reason for choosing this hotel. The room was clean, spacious and the beds were very comfortable. We didn’t hear too much noise from other guests or outside even though we were on the first level. We did not take advantage of the pool or hot tub but they were available. We did however take advantage of the breakfast you could order. It wasng fine dining by any means but the food was good. Not sure if I would stay here again for a long trip only because I found that not having a convenience store or grocery store within walking distance to be a bit of a hassle. But if we’re staying for just a couple of nights it would be perfect"

Renaissance Columbus Downtown Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"650 for security deposit by the way even though it’s suppose to be only 50 a night"
