Best hotels in Columbus
It is for couples, families, business travellers and anyone planning a short break in the city.
Staying in Columbus
Columbus hotels spread far beyond one centre. The downtown addresses here cluster along North High Street, West Broad Street and East Nationwide Boulevard, an easy group to compare on foot. A second cluster sits north around Polaris and Easton, and a third runs along Olentangy River Road and West Lane Avenue beside the university. Which one suits you depends on why you are here.
Downtown works for a short break or a business trip: Le Méridien Columbus The Joseph, Hotel LeVeque Autograph Collection, the two Hilton Columbus Downtown addresses, Sonesta Columbus Downtown, The Westin Great Southern Columbus, AC Hotel by Marriott Columbus Downtown, Hyatt Regency Columbus and Renaissance Columbus Downtown Hotel all put you in the middle of it. Families and longer stays tend to prefer the Polaris and Easton hotels, with their larger 3-star and 4-star properties, or the university-area suites with kitchens.
