My wife and I stayed here last weekend, we had tickets to see The Blue Man Group at the Palace Theater. The check-in was a breeze and we were surprised to see how they were able to transform a old bank into a beautiful hotel.The room was very clean and quiet and anything you may need is there. The entire... More

We stayed at the Residence Inn Columbus Downtown for two nights. Check in was fast and easy and our room was very clean and roomy all the amenities were available having a kitchen in the room was very convenient. The building itself was very beautiful and it is impressive how they have renovated it into a hotel. If we are... More

Stayed for 6 nights and was overall a very good experience. Marriott transformed a historic downtown bank into a well appointed and comfortable hotel. Much nicer and more reserved than the hotels surrounding the Convention Center with a much more attentive staff, particularly Amanda (bartender) and Nate (front desk). Love that they incorporated the original vault, door and all, into... More

We are from Columbus, but sometimes we like to stay downtown after a late night event. We have stayed here a few times and have not been disappointed. The rooms are very modern, nicely decorated, and spacious. Front desk staff are very nice. The building was originally a bank, so when you go down for the buffet, you will enter... More

We were thouroughly impressed with the historic building and the clean, spacious, comfortable room! The staff was exceptional - especially Brian who was very friendly and most helpful. Great location, within walking distance of many restaurants. We were in town for the hockey game - nice walk to the arena. Felt very safe. Breakfast was abundant and well done. Would... More

First off, I love the fact that they didn't change a lot of the old fixtures in the lobby, it really adds to the historic and classy feel of the hotel. Second, our room was beautiful, clean, and comfortable. The staff was very friendly and helpful with directions and suggestions. Would stay again. Within walking distance to most of the... More

My daughter and I went for two days. Brian who greeted us at the front desk was very friendly. He even called after we'd gotten into our room to be sure everything was to our satisfaction (and we loved the room). I was very impressed by that. We enjoyed the kitchen. We went out to eat dinner and had to... More

The hotel is a very nice conversion property from an old bank building which makes for one of the most interesting residence inns I have stayed in. That being said, the breakfast area is probably one of tackiest and least user friendly areas of the hotel. The vault door is in the breakfast area is a very neat thing to... More

The only negative thing about this hotel is that it's in downtown which isn't too attractive for tourists (but works well if you have to be there for business). There's no supermarket nearby, so if you want to fill up your fridge, you have to have a car. The hotel offers to do the grocery shopping for you which is... More
