Top neighbourhoods in Columbus

Short North

Short North pulses with creative energy as Columbus's premier arts district. Galleries line High Street, where Victorian buildings house contemporary art spaces and boutique shops. The monthly Gallery Hop transforms pavements into a lively parade of art lovers exploring illuminated shopfronts and pop-up displays. Colourful murals splash across brick walls while street performers add to the artistic atmosphere. Dining options range from upscale farm-to-table restaurants to casual gastropubs with craft cocktails and local brews. Boutique hotels in historic buildings offer artistic flair and personalised service. The neighborhood's excellent walkability makes exploring easy, with most attractions within a three-block radius.

German Village

German Village charms visitors with its brick-lined streets and 19th-century architecture that feels like a slice of Europe in Ohio. The Book Loft beckons with 32 rooms of literary treasures, while Schiller Park offers 23 acres of green space perfect for people-watching. Wander past historic cottages and breathe in the mouthwatering aromas wafting from authentic German eateries. The area serves up hearty German cuisine alongside upscale American bistros, with most spots requiring weekend reservations. Boutique bed & breakfasts in restored Victorian homes provide the perfect home base for exploring. The area's highly walkable layout makes getting around a breeze, though cobblestones can be tricky for those with mobility concerns.

Downtown Columbus

City centre Columbus buzzes with big-city energy, where sleek skyscrapers meet historic theatres. Catch a hockey game at Nationwide Arena or browse local goods at North Market before taking in a show at the ornate Ohio or Palace Theatre. The Columbus Museum of Art offers a peaceful retreat from the business district's hustle, while seasonal festivals bring the streets to life. Dining ranges from quick food lorry lunches to upscale steakhouses with strong happy hour scenes. Hotels cater primarily to business travellers with mid to high-end pricing. The area is highly walkable with excellent bus service and bike lanes connecting attractions throughout the district.

Arena District

The Arena District buzzes with electric energy on game nights when hockey fans storm Nationwide Arena. Surrounding the sports complex, you'll find sleek bars and restaurants ready to fuel your pre-concert excitement or post-game celebrations. KEMBA Live! draws music lovers while the Columbus Children's Theatre adds cultural flair to this entertainment hub. Upscale steakhouses and sports bars dominate the food scene, though prices climb when events are happening. Modern hotels and luxury apartments offer stylish places to crash after the action dies down. Everything sits within easy walking distance, but be ready for crowds when the Blue Jackets are playing or a big concert hits town.

University District

The University District pulses with the energy of Ohio State's sprawling campus. Catch cutting-edge exhibitions at the Wexner Centre for the Arts or cheer with thousands at "The Shoe" stadium. High Street buzzes with vintage shops, concert venues like Newport Music Hall, and diverse eateries that cater to student budgets and curious foodies alike. COTA buses connect you to city centre Columbus in minutes, while the walkable campus invites exploration of its tree-lined quads and Mirror Lake. Budget-friendly hotels and apartments offer practical lodging, though rates spike during football season and graduation. The area truly shines on game days when scarlet and grey transform the streets into a lively celebration.

Columbus and related destinations

Between the banks of the Scioto River and the bustle of High Street, a city of surprising contrasts awaits. The Ohio Statehouse offers free tours beneath its distinctive limestone dome, while COSI makes science genuinely entertaining with interactive exhibits that captivate all ages. The Short North Arts District transforms on Gallery Hop nights when boutiques and studios fling open their doors. At the Columbus Zoo, Jack Hanna's legacy lives on through conservation programmes and surprisingly personal animal encounters. German Village's brick streets lead to Schiller Park, where summer brings free Shakespeare performances. Don't miss North Market's food stalls, where local vendors have been perfecting their specialities since 1876.

Olentangy Motor Inn

Olentangy Motor Inn

8/10 Good
"Great old school motel. Well maintained and clean. Suggestions that they add a table of some kind in the accessible rooms. There was very minimal surface space for stuff in the room. No flat space in the bathroom at all which can make things like shaving - challenging. Otherwise, great place. Definitely recommend."
