Trendy hotel in downtown Columbus. Close to the short North so you can walk to some great restaurants and of course you have to visit Jeni's ice cream. The rooms are nice. Loved the tiled bathroom but it only had a shower no bathtub. So if you like to soak in a bubble bath you won't have that oppurtunity. The... More

I held a small conference at the Hilton Columbus Downtown and the attendees could not stop raving about the property. It's location near the convention center, arena and Short North district is about as perfect as it can get in Columbus. The staff was attentive and accomodating. The prices were very reasonable, especially for the quality of the product the... More

My group chose this hotel for a business meeting and we were all pleased with the overall quality. The hotel is an excellent facility and it is in walking distance of many things in downtown Columbus.

Great location with an easy walk to historic downtown, lots of shops, and great eating establishments. Hotel has self park with some difficulty in navigating from garage to hotel lobby so you may want to valet. The rooms are modern and very refreshing. The beds are light and fluffy surrounding you with comfort. Pick this one for Columbus you will... More

After arriving safely home we got a call from Dennis in security at the Hilton Columbus Downtown. My teenage daughter had left her wallet in our room (she hadn't missed it yet). It was FedEx-ed the next day. Saved. What a great location! Sports arenas just to the west, next to downtown and great shopping and attached to the Convention... More

We stayed here specifically to compare the Hilton to the Hampton Inn up the street (where I usually stay when in town). Let me start with my most serious complaint. When we arrived the sign said "Self-Parking: $20." The valet said that if we self-parked the parking would be charged to our room. Upon check-in, the hostess said to hang... More

Thank you for your note and your very thoughtful comments. First, I apologize for any confusion. Parking in the attached garage which we do not manage is $24 for valet service and $20 for self-parking when charged to your room; both include unlimited in/out privileges and 5pm checkout. However, if one pays at the garage exit directly, they charge by... More

We stayed at this HIlton for a volleyball tournament at the convention center. The staff was excellent and attentive, and the our room (two queen beds) was very quiet and comfortable. Thankfully it faced the outside of the hotel and not the interior atrium. Location: excellent - walkway to convention center, near short North "district" and North Market shop. Room... More

Thank you for your thoughtful comments. I particularly appreciate the note on the towels. Our double rooms are stocked with three sets in general; this is increased when we know of higher occupancy. This is based on the number of people actually registered in the room which is not always accurate, to be honest. Though I do not know if... More

I stayed in a one bedroom suite at this hotel. The hotel is about 8 months old, and leans toward "modern" decor. Lots of materials used - even in the elevator; wood, metal, glass, stone, wallpaper, etc. Lots of textures. My room had elaborate up lighting, down lighting, numerous dimmers, and other accent lights. The art piece on the ceiling... More
