It was about a 10 to 15 minute walk on level ground with lots of shops, restaurants, and bars along the way."

Top James Thurber House Hotel Reviews

Hampton Inn & Suites Columbus-Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was very clean and well maintained. The staff was amazing especially the front desk attendants I’m so sorry I didn’t get their names. Loved the location and will definitely be back!"

Holiday Inn Columbus Dwtn-Capitol Square by IHG

8/10 Good

"We arrived on Friday and the water was turned off. The repairs were done but the water was not working. When we left the property at 6 pm it still was not working. When we returned later it was on. Our room was never cleaned on Saturday. We returned to the hotel at 4pm and it was not done. We were ok with towels so we did not call the front desk to report that our room was not cleaned."

Home2 Suites by Hilton Columbus Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Booked the king suite for a vacation. Home2suites was a great place to stay, it was nice having a full suite. And kitchenette is convenient. The complimentary breakfast hit the spot. Might want to use smaller tongs for the egg/meat area though. Staff were attentive. Will definitely put Home2suites on potential hotel for future trips"

10/10 Excellent
