Motels in Columbus

Columbus is home to the Ohio State Capital and one of the county's most prominent universities and most famous football schools. The OSU Buckeyes play at legendary Ohio Stadium, which can seat 104,944, making it America's fourth-largest on-campus college football facility.

In downtown Columbus, you can find the nation's only museum dedicated to military veterans, the National Veterans Memorial and Museum; a visit here is a very humbling experience.

If you're in Columbus during the warmer months, the Park of Roses is a must-see — a 13-acre garden inside Whetstone Park where you can see and smell over 350 types of roses. The city is also known for its great municipal park system, consisting of 16 parks throughout Columbus.

The North Market is an eclectic, 44,000-square-foot favorite of both locals and visitors. The market houses more than 30 vendors selling Midwestern and international foods, fresh produce, meats, cheeses, and beer. Here, purveyors and artisans of the fresh, the tasty, and the unusual offer their fare and their most helpful advice.

Columbus is the most visited city in Ohio, taking its culinary and cultural cues from around the country. The thriving arts scene, pulsing nightlife, and natural beauty within the city make it a destination you won't regret.
