“Very Satisfied”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 January 2012

Our family wanted to stop in Columbus to spend the night before heading to our final destination the next day. We used Priceline and spent the night at Crown Plaza Columbus North. It was late in the evening when we arrived and check in was simple and quick. Our room was clean and quiet, and we were able to get the rest we needed during our stay. The hotel may be a little dated; however, we found it be a great place to stay - especially for the price paid. The pool area was very nice, and the staff was friendly and efficient. We would have no problem coming back to this hotel again in the future.

We look forward to having you all back. We have some plans to update several areas of the hotel in the coming months…nothing to disturb your quiet time, but certainly some updates that you will appreciate on top of the friendly service you already experienced.

“North Columbus was nice”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 January 2012

The entrance to the hotel is spacious. There were conventions going on, but check in was still within minutes. Our room was adequate, comfortable bed (very important to us). We changed and headed down to get a snack. Although the restaurant was closed preparing for dinner, the bar tender hailed us over and advised he could get us food! We quickly received a very large chicken quesadilla, and couldn't finish it all! Only down side of this hotel is that they built it right on the freeway, so if you have a back room, you will hear traffic noise. Overall experience was great. Staff was friendly, we were greeted several times.

Room Tip: Ask for rooms away from freeway. I think it was the west, or south side of the hotel is on a major r...

Thanks for staying and I am glad the bartender took such good care of you. You are right about the quesadilla’s, they are more of a meal than an appetizer, great for sharing or when you are hungry. Please come back when you can.

“Very dated but clean rooms and friendly staff”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 December 2011

Reserved this hotel through Priceline. Staff was very friendly, rooms were clean but very dated. No exhaust fan in very small bathroom.
Spent two nights - central location for our shopping trips to Easton and Polaris.
Small but well equipped fitness center. Nice size indoor pool with lots of deck space.
Probably would not book this at full rate but was worth the price that we paid.

Room Tip: Request an inside room to avoid highway noise.

“Great hotel and great staff!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 December 2011

Simply beautiful hotel, have stayed here many times yet have failed to pay it forward---this place is great. The staff-so very professional, makes me feel really important staying here when I am on business. Perhaps that sounds cliche, I simply do not care, I love this hotel and will continue to keep staying here as long as the staff does not change and the hotel keeps improving. The hotel is simply stunning and it is a great place to rest, I am really happy with this hotel and sorry it has taken me so long to leave a review!

“Overrated at 3.5 stars”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 November 2011

I wouldn't exactly rate this as a 3.5 star. I felt annoyed to get this hotel on priceline bidding, was expecting to get something a little nicer. When comparing published rates of this hotel versus other 3.5 star hotels, this hotel's rates are much lower ($89 per night vs. $129 per night). That alone tells me it is a lesser value hotel compared to the other 3.5 star hotels. So, when bidding within that 3.5 star category, the so-called deal on priceline didn't seem like all that much of a deal. Anyway, the hotel is good enough, clean and comfortable. The place is older, and the bathroom is tiny. Beds are soft. The one nice thing about the place is the pool area. It is a large space with wood-covered walls and timber beams, giving it a lodge-feel. The indoor pool and hottub are large, and the indoor pool connects with the outdoor pool in season. The workout area is nice too. Also has free wireless and free parking.
