Every time I have stayed here, the front desk staff has been wonderful. The rooms are recently remodeled, and the location is perfect. I'm a huge fan!!

The recently renovated rooms and beds are functional and very comfortable . So much better than the other options nearby (e.g. Sheraton, Westin, DoubleTree)

Great view of downtown Columbus from my room. Staff was friendly and efficient. The whole hotel is being remodeled.

Only outdoor hotel pool downtown. No table service, but there are outdoor tables , chairs, chaise lounges , and sofas . Bring a picnic or order pizza delivery . Plastic cups a MUST.

Great hotel , right in the middle of downtown Columbus. Great decor!

Jenn Carlson

My room is always freezing (I have to put the temperature control in 83 degrees!), housekeeping is a nuisance in the AM and PM.

Dory Maciel

The corner rooms are nice, And there's nothing like the Concierge on the 21st floor ! Great staff ...

Gabriel Lewis

The valet is very nice and it has a very good location in Columbus.

Michael Norton

If they try and put you in room 2121 don't take it, right next to club. Convenient if you don't mind getting up early

JG

The beds here are so comfortable ...fluffy and light and I sleep amazing here

Jenn M

Nice hotel . Was here for a conference . Bar was painfully expensive . $27 for two shots?

Dory Maciel

The beds and comforters are extremely cozy !!! Nice views if the city ! Go high!

Back for 10th year in a row... Kevin still reigns!!!!

Bradley Lyons

The rooftop pool ? That would be on the fourth floor. Not the twenty-first. Or the tenth. Or the sixth. Or the fifth. The fourth. ;)

J. Holder Bennett

If you want a full bath be sure to ask for it or you'll just get a shower . The air conditioning is also woefully inadequate.

Elena Kuptsynova

Loving every minute of my stay. Super gay friendly . Great food, awesome rooms

Jeff Yaniga

Room is small. If I change my mind I'll need to leave the room to have enough room to do so.

Lakeisha "ClassyShopper" Dulin

Great breakfast buffet , get the waffles

KP M.

Check out the concierge located on the 21st floor , Club 21. Excellent breakfast and a decent happy hour spot w/ free wifi .

Nina D'Eramo

Perfect place for our wedding guests

JG

Rooftop pool and large fitness center !

Deb F.

Stop at the bar happy hour - martinis are fantastic

Dave Talia

As with every Marriott , they're wireless sucks. However they do have Ethernet connections in the rooms. Won't do you any good with your smart phone or iPad, though.

Nine Vitamin

TOOO loud music in the lobby The Whole Day!!!

Megan Binkley

Some little twerp stole my spinner hat when I was reading the newspaper by the pool

Wyatt Bales

With Tip Top right across the street, there's never a reason why one should order room service . It's mediocre and overpriced anyway.

Dory Maciel

Grrrr... 2 days in a row, no hot water, then NO water!

Dory Maciel

Kevin Egan is the best! Helped with places to eat and made sure we had all we needed for our Marriott experience!
