The room was clean and luxurious, the location was fairly central, and everyone was ridiculously friendly and helpful. Because it was a business trip, I had occasion to try the room service and everything I tried was delicious. Obviously pre-fab food, but done well. The steak and chicken entrees I had were actually still juicy and delicious. Probably gained some... More

After reading some reviews here, I was very nervous about spending two nights at the Crowne Plaza. The only reason we booked here was for a volleyball tournament at the convention center. First - check-in was swift - with a polite and helpful desk staff and equally polite valets for parking. The room: The room was spacious and clean. The... More

The hotel has a nice downtown location. The place is OK in general. I didn't know the king room I ordered didn't come with a bathtub. It had a shower only. The hotel provides a shuttle service with 3 miles radius. I had daily business at a building at Ohio State Univ. (1735 Neil ave, MBI building). I talked to... More

They argued with my husband about our rate, called security because my husband said he had never had this problem before (he wasn't cursing or being threatening). They the security guard asked him what for... More

Dear DMGM, I do apologize for the way that this matter was handled. If you would be so kind to email me a copy of your husbands government ID I would be happy to make the adjustment to the rate. Dirk Bengel Dbengel@columbushospitality.com More

Stayed here to attend a national wrestling meet at the arena across the street. Perfectly located for access to the arena. Max and Ermas is right across from the hotel, had a very nice waiter that took care of us. Only downside is parking and the entrance to the hotel. It's a tight fit, and if the hotel is slightly...

Valet staff was excellent, as well as front desk and housekeeping. When we got into room there was only one set of towels for four but housekeeping quickly fixed that. Max and Erma's was okay. I would stay here again. More

I arrived very late without a reservation, and every other hotel was sold out...Matt at the front desk was great, and got me in right away with no problem. Stayed two nights and everything was excellent. Would definitely stay here again! More

Great, Great, Great Service. My husband and I are platinum members and I booked a resv the day before for his birthday. The woman who checked us in was extremely professional and so was the entire staff the entire time. Thanks to Jonathan who made his birthday even greater and Ryan who accommodated us the entire time.

...if you're going to a conference and you've never been to this venue, bear in mind that being "just across the street from the Columbus Convention Center" does not mean a 2-minute walk. Yes, the enclosed (but unheated) walkway is fantastic during the wintertime, but by no means are you a stone's throw away from the CC. You will walk... More
