The Spotlight on Holiday Inn Columbus Downtown - Capitol Square By IHG

Concert Nights Made Easy in Downtown Columbus

Modern and comfortable, the Holiday Inn Columbus Downtown - Capitol Square puts you right in the heart of the action. Located just steps from the iconic Ohio Theater and within walking distance of the Arena District and Palace Theater, this hotel is a convenient home base for music lovers wanting quick access to the city’s top venues. With an indoor pool, on-site dining, and free WiFi, it offers great value without sacrificing comfort.

Why Concert-goers love it

The location is a major win—you're just a short walk from several of Columbus' most popular theaters and live music spots, meaning no need to worry about parking or rideshares after the show. Guests appreciate the quiet rooms despite the central location, making it easy to wind down post-concert. The 24-hour fitness center and indoor pool are also great for a relaxed start the next morning. With a 4PM check-in, you’ve got time to arrive, freshen up, and head out to your event.

Who this Hotel is great for

Groups of friends looking to catch a live show without breaking the bank.
Solo travelers checking off that bucket-list concert.
Couples enjoying a music-filled weekend getaway.
Fans searching for a quieter space to recover after the encore.
Budget-conscious music lovers who still expect comfort and convenience.

Food and Drink Options

Burger Theory Bar and Lounge serves up breakfast, lunch, and dinner with a variety of menu options. While there’s no 24/7 room service, the on-site restaurant stays open late enough to grab a bite after early shows. And being in downtown Columbus means you’re steps away from additional local eateries and bars, perfect for pre- or post-concert dining.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself doesn’t host live music, its location in Capitol Square puts you near the buzz of the Arena District and numerous nightlife options. From cozy cocktail lounges to energetic bars, you’ll find plenty of ways to keep the night going. The hotel bar is also a solid option for a nightcap with a laid-back vibe.

What People Say

Guests love the walkable location, especially for events at Ohio Theater and nearby venues. Reviews often mention the friendly staff, clean rooms, and dependable WiFi. The indoor pool and fitness center are also popular perks, especially for longer stays.

Areas for Improvement

Some reviewers note that the property could use a few updates in decor and that parking isn't included in the nightly rate. That said, the overall experience is still praised as a great value for the location and amenities.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers looking to stay steps from the stage and sleep in peace after the show, Holiday Inn Columbus Downtown - Capitol Square offers the perfect combination of comfort, convenience, and value.

Very Good - 4.0 out of 5

Tanya, Grand Blanc, visiting The Bluestone Columbus

The Holiday Inn was nice and it was a good stay. Walking around in the evening was a little unsettling as many people were just hanging around the taxi area and the bus station. No one bothered us though so it was OK - I just was not sure since it was an unfamiliar place. Never felt uncomfortable or unsafe in the hotel.

Liked: The room was clean and quiet. Staff was pleasant and helpful.
Disliked: None.

Pleasant - 3.0 out of 5

Stephanie S, Streetsboro Ohio

Liked: Staff was very nice. Food delivered to room was hot, tasty and the portions were large.
Disliked: $10.00 a day parking is absurd! Opened the window curtain in the room and there was black mold growing, causing the paint to peel. The tub felt like it was sinking towards the drain.

Joyce, Dennison, Ohio

The hotel and room was clean. They were making a face lift of the stair wells but they were still clean. The employees were the best feature. They were all very helpful, polite, made eye contact. I felt welcome. The pool was very nice, clean and appealing. Can't speak of the bar or restaurant as we did not go there.

Liked: The service
Disliked: None
