Good value for a good location

Decided last moment to head to Columbus for the New Year and found this hotel available online. It is located just south of the Arena district and the Short North, just a few minutes walk to either area. So within walking distance, you have at your fingertips great restaurants, shopping and perhaps a concert or a game at the Arena. The hotel is clean and staff is friendly. It is not luxurious, but if you are looking for a comfortable and clean place to hang your hat while exploring Columbus, this is good as any.

Concert Getaway

We came to Columbus to see a concert at the LC Pavilion and the hotel was within walking distance and lots of great places to eat near by. The window AC was a bit disappointing, but in historic buildings that's what you get I guess. The breakfast buffet at the hotel is worth it. Hard to find a place downtown that's open for breakfast on the weekend. There was nothing special about this hotel, but you can't beat a clean room and VERY helpful staff. The tip about parking in the public lot down the street instead of using the hotel valet was a great one.

We walked to German Village which is about a mile from the hotel. Shopping, German restaurants, and a beautiful park.

The room and location were great. Very clean and comfortable. The only drawback was the lack of an elevator on the lobby level so in order to get a luggage rack up to your room a bellhop had to wait for a special lift that did not work quickly. Also, parking was at a garage down the street.

Downtown Convenience

We were visiting Columbus for a wedding. Marriot Courtyard was located in the heart of Columbus - very close to many attractions. This motel was well maintained, had safe parking, and had a "five star" staff. We would definitely stay there again.

Great Stay!

Checked in for a bachelorette party and didn't plan on being in the room much. Short walk (3 blocks) to all the bars/restaurants. To get to the elevators you either had to walk up or down 1 flight of stairs so that was a bit of an inconvenience. Room very clean. Beds comfy (and spacious, we fit 3 women to a queen bed). Staff was AWESOME! There was supposedly construction going on but we didn't see/hear anything while there.

Good price

it was a great price, we saved almost half the cost. The location was perfect, right on the corner beside wallstreet nightclub. Hospitality was good, hotel clean, and bed extremely comfortable. Valet parking available. If you are interested in ordering delivery, dont waist your time using the directory, provided in the room, just go down to the front desk and they have plenty of restraunts that deliver and their menu. The only negative was that more than half of the hotel was packed with little kids running around all through the evening. I thought you had to be 21 and older to reserve a room!

Courtyard Columbus Downtown - OK

The hotel was clean and about what you would expect with friendly staff. Conveniently located for a walk around downtown or up to High Street to "Short North" for lots of bars and restaurants. The hotel parking was a bit of a shock at $18 per night.

Nice Hotel With a Friendly Staff

My wife and I stayed one night at the Marriott to attend a concert at the nearby LC Pavillion. The Arena district and convention center are within walking distance of this hotel and several others. So compare prices. You'll find plenty of entertainment, shopping and restaurants. You can skip the Marriott's $17 valet parking. There's a $6.00 per day flat rate parking garage just one block away, behind the hotel, on Marconi Street. Overall, the hotel was neat and clean. The staff was attentive and friendly. The bed was comfortable. The room and hallways were clean. Although there is no free breakfast, they do have free coffee in the lobby that's actually bold and tasty. I'm not picky, but my wife is...and she was pleased, as well.
