Top Otterbein University Hotel Reviews

Candlewood Suites Polaris by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was very friendly"

Embassy Suites by Hilton Columbus

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was very sweet and helpful :)"

Aloft by Marriott Columbus Westerville

10/10 Excellent

"Everyone was so helpful, clean room, super comfy bed. Added to the great trip we had!"

Four Points by Sheraton Columbus-Polaris

8/10 Good

"The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. We did not have the breakfast because we checked out before it opened. The ice machine on our floor was broken, so we had to go to another floor to get ice. The clock in our room was not set at the right time. The light in the bathroom was motion-activated, so when you got up to use the restroom in the middle of the night, this very bright light came on whether you wanted it or not. A night light would have been more helpful and made it easier. The shower had good pressure and there was a good selection of channels to watch. This was a great place for a one-night stay."

Comfort Inn North/Polaris

10/10 Excellent

"Loved! The room was clean, staff was helpful, the breakfast was great, and in a great area!"

Red Roof Inn Columbus Northeast - Westerville

8/10 Good

"If you need a place to sleep and don’t really care if your beds have stains on them than this is a place for you! I knew what I was paying for before I agreed so it didn’t disappoint."

Renaissance Columbus Westerville-Polaris Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"My stay at the hotel from the start to the end was excellent. The reception at the front desk helpful and pleasant. The bartender early Friday afternoon was welcoming, happy and efficient. Food was excellent as we ate at the bar. I asked for extra towels and blanket later on. Diego delivered them in a timely manner and with a smile. Breakfast was great and our server was a joy smiling and laughing along with us. Checking out was a breeze on Saturday as it was a 24 hour business trip. I wished I remembered everyones name. Will definetly stay here again."

Cambria Hotel Columbus - Polaris

10/10 Excellent

"My experience last week at Cambria was exactly what I needed it to be. Even though renovations were going on the hotel property was still well maintained. The hotel staff and management met my expectations with my desired room type. They were very accommodating and nice. I look forward to staying at Cambria again on my next visit."

Homewood Suites by Hilton Columbus/Polaris, OH
