Lovely high end hotel. Comfortable rooms and tasty food. I would highly recommend for any game day experience whether it be the Buckeyes or the new UFL Aviators.
Nice clean rooms, great location. Small things could add to the experience. waters in the room or given at front desk when checking in. Restaurant could use updating. Otherwise, solid and a regular stay for us when visiting OSU.
The standard of more than a decade that we got spoiled to enjoy. Minimalist, clean, superb dining and breakfast. The bartender serving us dinner in the lounge was a very special experience for our family of 5. Would come back anytime, if only we could find open rooms.
Very impressed by how nice everyone was, from checking at front desk to housekeeping, staff is awesome.

From the valet parking to the buffet breakfast and the attentive gracious staff our stay was wonderful!
Would definitely recommend.
Very convenient and well maintained property. The staff made us feel very welcome.
Great hotel on the Ohio State campus. A wonderful weekend in October, with the Buckeyes not playing. Walked around the campus and reminisced about college days. Hotel is convenient to many Columbus sites.
Good attention to detail, clean and a wonderful atmosphere. I would stay there again.
Beautiful hotel, with big rooms, nice staff.
We enjoyed our stay over Independence Day! Staff was pleasant and attentive. The room was clean and inviting!
Location, that's it! The hotel is run by young kids(students) that aren't very engaged and inexperienced, food is horrendous; there is a very small bar with very limited hours.
Very clean. Crisp. Fresh. My daughter slept great and loved the pillows. She wants one!
Awesome Stay
Spotlessly clean and attractive rooms. Staff could not have been more pleasant and accommodating. Would return in a second!
We were unable to stay there as husband's surgery was postponed. We were unable to cancel our reservation.
