Sonesta Columbus Downtown

We opted for valet service during our stay, very happy with their helpfulness and with our luggage. I was taken aback by the overall feel and look of the hotel. In town for the volleyball championships at the Convention Center, it was more than expected. I absolutely loved the self-care/wellness approach because im a social worker I was really happy with that aspect from the reflection board in the lobby, the mindfulness coloring coasters and sheets with colored pencils available at the bar and in the restaurant, and the cards placed in the room on the bed and in the bathroom. I also really liked the layout of the room. We stayed in a king loft room with my teenage daughter. There was a small issue with the rollaway bed not being there when we checked in, but with one phone call, it was corrected right away. I enjoyed learning the history of the building we were in. The exposed brick and beams added a nice touch. It was calm and serene in the room. The mood lighting provided a nice touch. The bed was comfortable, and the refrigerator was convenient. There were no microwaves in the room, but they were available in the lobby. There were two large tvs in the room, which was good for us as we don't typically like to watch the same things. Lots of channels to choose from. We decided to extend our stay, and the hotel staff were helpful and made it easy. We also opted for a late check out at 1pm. The food and drink options in the restaurant were amazing. Full bar with many whiskey/bourbon options. It was a little pricey but we'll worth it after 12 hours of volleyball!

Very convenient location. A few blocks from the arena. The front desk staff were pleasant, and we were happy to have a small fridge in the room. The bathroom was larger than expected. Linens were clean. There's an on-site restaurant that stays open late and a tiny convenience store for drinks & snacks. The Chestnut Street public parking garage was relatively close, with a short walk around the block.

Bed was very comfy. Room was spacious. Appreciated being able to walk to the Convention Center without going outside since it was cold. Really great hotel gym. Short walk to restaurants and the arena.

Next to arena, 5 mins walking distance.

The hotel was clean and it connected to the convention center which was very convenient because I was in town for a conference. I enjoyed the food at the Vine + Forge. It was delicious!
