Tru by Hilton Columbus Airport

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed here because we had a super early flight. I wish we could have stayed longer. The facility is very clean and welcoming."

Comfort Suites Columbus Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Very enjoyable stay at this hotel! 1- staff: super friendly and helpful. I needed to add one night after I’d booked on Expedia and I called and they made it very simple for me. Very kind too. 2- breakfast: for a free breakfast it was really excellent. Eggs, sausage, waffle makers, a selection of bakery items and fruits and yogurts and juices etc. I was very pleasantly surprised! 3- Rooms. We couldn’t believe how spacious and comfortable the rooms were! With an area with a sofa to watch tv, plus 2 full length mirrors and 2 sinks. Fridge and microwave. We had everything we needed. I recommend this hotel! Also close to the airport but not far from the city."
