The Plaza Hotel Columbus at Capitol Square

8/10 Good

"Good location in the heart of Downtown Columbus. Staff was helpful and the area seemed safe. The room could have used some updating.

Drury Inn & Suites Columbus Dublin

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was incredibly polite, kind, helpful, and always cheerful. Frida was especially helpful in assisting us by phone before arrival as we were stuck in traffic and had a family member arrive early prior to us checking in. Everything was great! Only criticism would be the front elevator being "Out of Service" which slowed down movement in the hotel, and the omelettes that I so loved the Friday day not being served on Saturday and Sunday for Breakfast. Thank you so much for everything! I will be back to this hotel and will look for other Drury Hotels when I travel in the future."
