This is one of the most well-run hotels I've stayed at. To a person, the people who work here are unfailingly friendly, professional and welcoming. The restaurant food is surprisingly good. Location is perfect and I always feel very comfortable here.

Hotel seems great, but Buyer Beware at the Marketplace store. One chicken breast$7 fair, popcorn, a Fairlife protein shake and a $13 bottle of wine they marked up to $45. Total bill was $80 and they prompted for a tip. I could’ve had a steak dinner. Seems kind of greedy Hilton. Items should be priced.

We are Hilton Diamond and spend about 40 or more days a year in hotels, and I can confidently say, this was one of the best stays we have ever had. We were there for 4 nights and everything was great. From the friendly valet team, to the front desk staff, to the well thought out rooms, we had no complaints. We stayed in a corner suite in Tower 402 and it was fantastic. The room is so well put together and I feel like they thought of everything. From a giant drawer under the sink in the bathroom (there is usually never enough room to store your stuff in a bathroom), to the multiple full-length mirrors, automatic curtains, and basket left outside our door with chocolates and toiletries because we had the Privacy sign up. If you are traveling for an event at the Convention Center, you can not find a better location. It is easy to get to and there are also plenty of great food options right at the hotel. If you want to try something different, it's an easy walk over to Tower 401 for other options. This hotel is in a great location for walking to local restaurants and stores. There is plenty nearby to keep you entertained. We felt very safe in the area and would definitely stay here again!

I am not sure why hotels need to have the fire alarm flash every 30 seconds. I am happy they have one. But by 3am I was about to pull that thing off the wall! The hvac system is also in the room and makes an inconsistent humming oscillating noise. It was a low enough frequency to not be able to be noise cancelled by my Boise head phones. Even turned off entirely the unit still made noise. Wtf hotel what’s with this? I feel sleep deprived at 4 am now and I am thinking about going to the parking lot to sleep. However I don’t remember how to get there because it’s such a maze and the front desk person said the access ramp is gated off at this time so I can’t even get to my freakin car if I wanted to! Road noise is also loud but understandably out of their control and not the reason I am not sleeping and writing this in the elevator area while waiting on the day to start! Front desk offered me a water bottle for my troubles and at 3am has horrible music blaring. It does look fancy and clean. Shower pressure is still “a hotel” so I didn’t bother washing my hair. But my body didn’t even get washed off from the soap. I was at end of hall so noise level is better. But you can hear all conversations in hallway floor above you. If you stay at the convention center, I have had way better experiences with Hyatt. I hope this saves someone the trouble I had.

This place was amazing. We celebrated our 20th wedding anniversary with a king corner suite. The room, view, and service was off the chain. Excellent, excellent, excellent. The room was clean and well furnished. We were on the 24th floor, so the viewwas amazing at night. Be back again.

We stayed here for the recent U.S. Figure Skating Championships and this was the best experience we have had at an official hotel for this event over the past decade. Everyone we encountered at the hotel from the front desk to housekeeping to the restaurants was friendly and helpful. The room was in good condition and it was such a pleasure not to have to request housekeeping, it was just taken care of for us, no matter what our schedule was. I do hope that Columbus hosts future events as I would immediately book this property!

Had a great stay at this Hilton. Room was very clean, beds were comfortable. We were able to walk to Ruths Chris Steakhouse for dinner. Valeted the car Friday night, dealt with Richard Polk who was very helpful. There were a lot of cars coming and going on a Friday night and he was very attentive to helping us get checked in. Left on Saturday morning and he was working again. He helped us get loaded up and on our way. Very friendly employee, great asset to the hotel.
