The Spotlight on Renaissance by Marriott Columbus Downtown Hotel

Downtown Style Meets Music City Energy

Modern and stylish, the Renaissance by Marriott Columbus Downtown Hotel puts you right in the heart of the action. Located in vibrant downtown Columbus, this upscale hotel blends sleek design with cozy comfort—perfect for music fans looking to stay close to the city's biggest stages. With sweeping views of the skyline, a rooftop pool, and on-site dining, it’s an ideal base whether you're in town for a major concert or a weekend of music and exploration.

Why Concert-goers love it

This hotel is just minutes from Nationwide Arena and other key music venues, making it a top pick for fans who want to walk to their show. After the encore, you’ll appreciate the soundproofed rooms for a good night’s rest and the 12:00 PM checkout that lets you sleep in. Public transit and rideshare options are easily accessible, and late-night bites and drinks are available on-site—no need to wander far after the show.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends heading to a big tour stop
  • Solo travelers ticking an artist off their bucket list
  • Couples making a weekend escape of it
  • Fans looking for a quieter, upscale vibe after the lights go down
  • Budget-conscious fans who still want style and location (split a room!)

Food and Drink Options

  • The on-site Latitude 41 restaurant serves up modern American fare in a stylish setting
  • Bar 41 is your go-to for drinks and light bites before or after the show
  • Plenty of walkable dining and late-night food spots nearby
  • Room service available; check with front desk for late-night options
  • Breakfast available on-site—perfect for morning-after recovery

Nightlife Options

  • Brewery District only 2 miles away for local craft brews and live acts

What People Say

Guests love the central location, easy access to concert venues, friendly staff, and the rooftop pool with city views. Many highlight the clean, modern rooms and strong Wi-Fi for pre-show planning or post-concert uploads. The hotel's ambiance is often described as both energetic and relaxing—just the right mix for music lovers.

Areas for Improvement

Parking is available but not free, and some guests mention it can get pricey. The rooftop pool is seasonal only, so don’t count on a swim during winter gigs. A few reviewers note that weekend nights can be lively in the lobby, so light sleepers might want a higher floor.

The Bottom Line

If you're heading to Columbus for a concert, the Renaissance by Marriott Columbus Downtown Hotel offers location, comfort, and late-night convenience—all wrapped in a modern downtown vibe.

Overpriced old hotel

Liked: Overpriced downtown hotel with $45 valet parking. Breakfast was extra. Beds were okay. Rooms were dated, old dirty carpets. Loud noise was heard every time someone flush the toilet. Overpriced restaurant in the hotel.Will not stay here again.

We were there for a...

Liked: I liked the updated and modern feel of the hotel. The walk-in shower was great and had excellent water pressure.
Disliked: We didn't like that the room fridge lacked a freezer and that the room did not come with a microwave. Also, having to pay for WiFi and parking on top of the room cost was not ideal.

Fine but not worth the...

Liked: The location was good and the staff was kind
Disliked: Our room had one of those barn doors for the bathroom that didn't close all the way, and did not give much privacy. We could hear the people in the room next to us as they talked. We could hear them every time someone came on the floor from the elevator. I am not a light sleeper but I was woken multiple times by the elevator doors.

Liked: The lobby was beautiful.
Disliked: Water leaks out of the shower so I slipped and fell. I sprained my ankle. The hallways smell of weed and I was woken up by banging.
