Top Alum Creek State Park Hotel Reviews

Courtyard by Marriott Columbus Worthington

10/10 Excellent

"Room was very clean, staff was very helpful. Very comfortable"

Drury Inn & Suites Columbus Polaris

8/10 Good

"The Hotel itself was very nice and the rooms are nice and clean. When we are able to make it in time, the welcome drinks are a nice treat. We don't really like the food at the evening welcome, but if you can't get dinner before arriving, at least you can put something in your stomach. The morning breakfast is fine. After a long day out, we usually like to hit the hot tub and relax a bit, but I think we will skip this one from now on. Over abundance of dirty brown soap bubbles (we decided not to get in). We still really like the Drury Hotels and will continue to stay when we can."

Four Points by Sheraton Columbus-Polaris

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was good."

Home2 Suites Polaris Columbus, OH

10/10 Excellent

"Nice, big room with clean kitchenette. Comfortable beds. The biggest perk was having free laundry machines (provide your own soap). Breakfast had a large variety of options and coffee better than most. Parking was a bit interesting, with the primary lot being behind the hotel. Area seemed safe and staff was very friendly and helpful. Close to a lot of amenities."
