Top Columbus Hotel Reviews

Comfort Suites Columbus Airport

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was so clean, and so nice! But my daughter and my Fiancé had a beautiful 2 queen size beds. But I was un doing the bed to get sleep. Their was a puck stain on one of the beds. Also, the other bed was awful. It was off the rails. But other than that it was nice. Loved the pool, and everything else"

Hyatt Regency Columbus

8/10 Good

"The room was clean and very well appointed. The air conditioning in my room blew right over the bed, which was inconvenient. I had to turn it off at some point, even though it was needed — I couldn’t handle the air blowing directly on me. Also, the train runs past the hotel. Several times throughout the night I and my friend (in another room) were woken up by it. Other than that, the hotel was excellent. The Bar on 2 had excellent service, and so-so food. It was convenient, but overpriced for the quality."

"The hotel is showing its age, but it’s very clean. Now let’s talk about the shower…I would buy a room here just for the shower pressure. I imagine it’s comparable to standing under Niagara Falls, mist included. Whatever wrong you find here, this fact alone should right it. Just be sure to pull that knob hard."
