Character and identity
Opened in 2015, this 135-room property sits in the heart of the Short North, Columbus's arts and entertainment district, and functions almost as much as a gallery as a hotel. The public spaces and corridors are hung with developers Ron and Joel Pizzuti's contemporary art collection, which sets the tone: design-literate, gallery-quiet, deliberately current. Rooms and suites are contemporary in palette, with upscale dining, a fitness room, and a spa rounding out the amenity set. The register is polished urban rather than grand or formal, more art-world townhouse than traditional luxury hotel.
Who's it for
Best for:
Design-minded couples and solo travellers who want to walk to galleries, restaurants and bars the moment they drop their bags. The contemporary art programme rewards anyone who treats the hotel itself as part of the cultural itinerary, and the Short North location suits weekenders prioritising neighbourhood energy over resort-style seclusion.
Should look elsewhere:
Families wanting a full kids' programme, travellers after a classic grande dame experience, or anyone seeking a quiet, contained resort. The Short North is lively, the property is compact at 135 rooms, and the amenity stack is focused rather than sprawling.
Bottom line
The defining feature here is the art collection and the Short North address working in tandem: you are staying inside a curated contemporary art environment, steps from the city's best galleries and dining. Book it if that combination appeals; a suite makes the most of the design language. Weekends draw the neighbourhood crowd, so midweek stays read calmer.
