Renaissance Columbus Downtown Hotel
4.1/599 Reviews

Renaissance Columbus Downtown Hotel

Columbus|0.13km from Downtown
How can I summarize the wonderful experience at this hotel?! Well to begin, the valet staff is a great team of people. I was helped by Taylor, who had a great personality and was such a warm welcome for the weekend. The front desk was swift, kind, and accommodating, and they provided great recommendations for restaurants and activities! The rooms were clean… but if I must be honest, the hotel could benefit from a little updating here and there. I know it’s an expensive ask, but in order to stand out in today’s world, that could be a huge plus! Other than that, everything was super!

The Plaza Hotel Columbus at Capital Square

The Plaza Hotel Columbus at Capital Square

Columbus|0.26km from Downtown
EXTREMELY disappointing; this property may check the boxes necessary to qualify as a 4-star, but it is decidedly not. There are better options in the same price range nearby. (The below has also been shared directly with Marriott properties) In order from arrival: 1) Small guest drop off area, without valet, and front desk staff do not consistently guide anyone to the same parking location 2) Front desk staff, while friendly, should not be at a premium property with rumpled and untucked shirts--this also extended to other staff encountered during my stay. This lack of attention to detail clearly shows in the other issues noted below 3) While the property overall is showing it's age (which would normally be ok), the common areas (lobby, Plaza restaurant, etc) had a distinct lack of cleanliness: having to wipe dead bugs off of tables, upholstery that is coming apart and/or clearly dirt-stained 4) Room cleanliness: bathroom and tiled baseboards severely scuffed, chipped, and/or stained. Walls that somehow were showing dirt (even though the wallpapering is dark silver striped), and the same upholstery issues with the furniture as in the lobby 5) Bed linens: the stark white sheets clearly offset what were previously the same stark white pillowcases, however the pillowcases were clearly off-white/yellowed and in need replacing Very disappointed. Would NOT stay at this property again.

Hotel LeVeque, Autograph Collection

Columbus|0.36km from Downtown
From the time we stepped out of our vehicle until the second we left we were very well taken care of by the staff. There were two very nice ladies working the front desk who were so kind they brought our Insomnia Cookies up to our room. We stayed for one night in order to see a Jackson Browne concert and the hotel was right next to the venue (The Palace Theater). This is a beautiful hotel the room was spacious the bathroom was big and I fell asleep looking at the stars on the ceiling of the room. The bar had the best Bloody Mary's I have ever tasted. The only minimal complaint I might have were the elevators seemed confusing. Some were for specific floors and others were employees only. At times we never knew which ones to get on. I would recommend the Leveque Hotel to anyone traveling to Columbus. This was by far the best hotel that I have stayed at in Columbus, Ohio.
DoubleTree Suites by Hilton Columbus Downtown

DoubleTree Suites by Hilton Columbus Downtown

Columbus|0.36km from Downtown
Among the issues: 1. The pull out couch in the living room, has the world's thinnest mattress and more importantly, there was a black sock in the bed. Eew! I slept on the floor while my family took the beds. 2. Only 1 closet in the room and the shelf was crooked and almost falling out of the wall. Above the shelf was a piece of wallpaper that has been scotch-taped to the wall. 3. The hook on the back of the bathroom door was missing. Where am I supposed to hang my towel(s)? 4. We reserved this room for 4 people. When we arrived, there were only two sets of towels in the bathroom and it took more than 30 minutes to get more linens. 5. There was no garbage can in the bathroom. 6. The shower drain was almost totally clogged and by the end of a short shower, I ended up standing in several inches of water. 7. The room smelled but that's probably because the furniture and carpets are very old.
Holiday Inn Columbus Dwtn-Capitol Square

Holiday Inn Columbus Dwtn-Capitol Square

Columbus|0.5km from Downtown
I stayed at Holiday Inn for one night on June 27th and they made a hold on my credit card. However, the hold was never released and they actually charged my card. I have lost count how many times I have called the hotel to get it solved and get my money back for something they should not have charged me. Some of the times the front desk person was really rude and in several occasions they said that they would verify and call me back, which never happened. In the moments that I could talk to the manager (which was not easy since she is usually not there) she was actually nicer but did not solve the problem either. They keep saying that the amount is going to be refunded to my credit card, but I never got the refund. It has been more than a month since I stayed at Holiday Inn Columbus Downtown and I am still trying to get this refund. In summary, only stay at this hotel if you are willing to loose your deposit and spend time and patience trying to get it back without knowing when. So if you stay there, good luck.

The staff was very welcoming and accommodating. The room was spacious and clean. The bed was VERY comfortable. The breakfast had one of the best waffle stations I have ever experienced. The location is less than 10 minutes from some of downtown Columbus’s best restaurants. We will definitely be staying here again.
Sonesta Columbus Downtown

Great to see the improvements that Sonesta has made at this hotel. We have stayed here in the past and this was an improved experience for sure. Assistance at the front desk was good. When requested to make a change in my room it was facilitated without any problem. Rooms are well equipped and spacious. Quality of WIFI in the hotel is good. With 2 elevators you can get up and down quickly enough. It is nice to see that the inhouse bar / restaurant has remained. Good menu and options. The morning breakfast is Okish; not really worth the money at the moment. So definately room for improvement here. All together a good hotel to stay if you are in Columbus!

Drury Plaza Hotel Columbus Downtown

Drury Plaza Hotel Columbus Downtown

The hotel is connected to the convention center through a eating area. They provide free breakfast and a ”snack” at 5:30 with drinks that probably works as a meal for many. Checking in and out were easy and the reception staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms were good sized with clean bathrooms. A microwave and small fridge were in the room. The bed was comfortable and the room temperature could be easily adjusted. Would stay here again.
