Pros

Located steps from Arena District and Arch Park (0.5 miles and 0.5 miles respectively)

Eight restaurants within 0.5 miles, including Jeff Ruby's Steakhouse and Martini Modern Italian

Complimentary newspapers available in the lobby

Walking distance to Saint Joseph Cathedral (0.5 miles) and World's Largest Gavel (0.5 miles)

Cons

Ohio State University requires transportation at 2.5 miles distance

Some cultural attractions like the Pizzuti Collection require a 0.5 miles walk

“The hotel's independently owned status stands out, particularly in its blend of historic architecture and modern amenities; I appreciate the option of valet parking and in-room breakfast. Its location near attractions like the Columbus Museum of Art makes it a notable choice. It's a place that balances convenience with a distinct sense of place.”
