Great experience! I love the self parking ability in the secure parking garage and the need for your room key to operate the elevator. We felt safe and comfortable the entire stay! Only a block walk to Nationwide Arena made the night perfect!

They take security to an extreme. I didn't like that when we arrived and wanted to check in we couldn't just walk into the lobby. We had to use their phone, which after 8 hours of driving was actually quite difficult to see the instructions. Eventually we were allowed in, but this isn't exactly a friendly arrival!

We loved the ease of checking in and the news of all the freebies from the 🏠 ge breakfast buffet to an additional dinner buffet and free drinks. We didn't partake in the free popcorn, but that was also a nice surprise. The room was spacious and filled with everything we needed. Upon getting ready for bed, we noticed the sheets were dirty and called downstairs. They immediately apologized and made arrangements to switch our room and comped the parking fee to make up for the inconvenience. This was a swift, acceptable, and appreciated way to resolve the problem. The next day we used the pool area and it was spacious and clean. Overall, a great trip and all of the staff were constantly there to give help with a friendly and positive attitude that made the stay even better.

Overall the property was very good. Staff was attentive and trained friendly. The property felt safe and was generally clean. Only complaint is there was a large noticeable stain on the window curtains. I can understand how HK would miss it while doing a general room cleaning but it was very noticeable when you opened/closed the curtains.

Probably the absolute best customer service I have EVER received at any hotel stay. Natalya was the absolute best. She let us check into our room 2 hours early. We were so thankful for that after a long day of traveling. Everyone was so nice and welcoming, knowledgeable about the area. We just loved every worker we met there. They have a “free” kickback with alcoholic drinks and food from 5-7pm. I say free because it’s actually not. Come to find out after the stay they will charge you a conscience fee and occupancy fee which I would assume goes toward the kickback hour. Not a big deal just something to note. The room we had was pretty small and outdated, bathroom was also very small. Room was just okay but overall, I would stay at this hotel again just for the workers.

We almost didn't need our coffee! We enjoy the location to be able to walk to a restaurant for dinner and the whole area is just really beautiful. We will definitely be back.

I can't say enough about the staff at this location. I have dietary restrictions and Holly went above and beyond to make sure there were items I could eat. After we checked out, my husband realized he left the cord to his electric scooter in the room. The front desks clerks were kind and polite and after making calls to housekeeping, went to the room and found the cord. (It had fallen behind the desk and looked like any other cord for the TV or lamp.) Thank you for being wonderful hosts!

Staying at the Drury in Columbus was a great experience! The staff were all phenomenal and kind. Buffet dinner, 3 adult drinks pp, and breakfast was included in our stay. The bar/restaurant has food for late night ordering as well. The pool and outside patio was very clean. Parking was $22 in the garage connected to the hotel and I had no issues finding a spot on the weekend. Walkable to many places downtown. I felt very safe in the area. Beds were very comfortable, pillow may be a bit too thick but not a major concern. Quiet rooms. The suites are very roomy! I was pleasantly surprised by how wonderful of a stay I had and I highly recommend this hotel.

We've stayed at a Drury in the past (a number of years ago in fact) and this stay was better than we remembered. This location was recently remodeled; they did a beautiful job with it. I've seen other hotel remodels and they don't look like this! Well done, Drury, it looks like new construction. Beyond the decor, every staff member we encountered wasn't just polite, they seemed to be enjoying what they do which makes your stay that much better. An example are the meal times (morning and evening)... most hotels/motels barely have sufficient staff to keep the food fresh and refilled. The Drury had employees circling the tables, not just bussing tables, but stopping and chatting with the guests as they went. All-in-all we had a delightful stay and look forward to our next stay at a Drury!!
