Hyatt Place Columbus/OSU Reviews

We brought our small dog on our trip since the hotel web site says it welcomes pets. Upon checking in we were avised there would be a $75 pet fee! I was quite incensed. Adding that amount of money to the room charge without notifying us at the time reservations were made appeared somewhat underhanded. There is no mention of this fee on the hotel web site where the pet guidelines are listed, e.g. weight of pet, etc. I rechecked the web site later and discovered you have to click on the heading "non-mandatory fees" to have the paragraph appear mentioning the charge. Seems sneaky to me to put it where no one is likely to look, especially if it says "non-mandatory fees". Non-mandatory must have a different meaning to Hyatt. We have stayed at this hotel every time on our visits to Columbus, without our dog, though, and always enjoyed it. Before our next trip, though, we will seriously consider other options. Seventy-five dollars seems excessive. I bet quite a few humans have done more damage than most pets without having paid a fee.

A little too fare from the city centre..you definitely need a car if staying here

Stayed 1 night due to brother being in University Hospital. Only drawback was we had to leave at 4:45 AM and there was nothing out yet for the breakfast - no coffee either.

Very clean great continental breakfast. Will stay here every time we come to OSU

Facilities, hotel staff, breakfast and even the Buckeye Hall of Fame Grill next door are outstanding. The hotel is a little tricky to get to initially but is very convenient to the arena district, Short North, the OSU campus and everything that's happening in Columbus!

Friendly faces greeted us from the start. Loved the sectional to relax. Loved buckeyes grill (literally right there!!) and had evening snack from 'the gallery'. Beds were great! Very quiet rooms- it was as if we were the only ones there. The morning hot skillet was much appreciated!! And to top it off-music as we walked in/out of hotel. Only negative-pool is on small side-so didn't go. We would def stay again!!

Stayed for 3 nights. Graduation was next store at the Time Warner Area...so convenient! Nice decor throughout. Great breakfast. We enjoyed the pool area with our kids and young nephews. At certain times of day the elevators would get crowded. Overall a wonderful experience.

Got in early, very nice and polite stuff members helped us to check in in no time. Very good parking space in front of the hotel. Clean rooms, good layout, all amenities are accessable.

I admit I do not travel often, so you could say almost any clean, comfy hotel would have satisfied me. But, I needed a place that was close to where my relatives live without having to deal with the relative noise of downtown. This filled the bill. It's probably more of an ideal business hotel than anything else, but I found it to be perfectly hospitable for the casual traveller as well.

My children and I were pleasantly surprised by the quiet location so close to downtown Columbus. The hotel itself was very nice and clean. The pool was excellent and the continental breakfast was yummy. The only thing that bothered me was the musty smell of our room the whole time we were there. The air conditioner made it a little more better but it was a very strong odor.
