Top Columbus Hotel Reviews

Days Inn by Wyndham Columbus

10/10 Excellent

"Nice staff is very friendly and helpful. Wyndham rewards support has been very difficult."

Lake Tiak O Khata Resort

10/10 Excellent

"The bed was great. The coffee maker had an old coffee still in it. It was gross. We let the front desk know. Don’t provide shampoo etc either. Nice ice machine and glad there was a fridge and microwave. Hard to unlock the doors. But everything else was great. Will be coming again. Oh food at restaurants was amazing. Great prices also."

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Columbus MS

10/10 Excellent

"Had trouble checking in. Original room the bed wasn't made and the cabinets were in the middle of the room. Assigned another room, but only had 1 bed instead of 2. Third room was OK. When we checked out and got 50 miles away, wife couldn't find her purse. Called the hotel and they searched the room and found it in the drawer and called me back. We were back and got it 👍. Really appreciate it and the kindness shown 🙏."

Shadowlawn Bed & Breakfast

10/10 Excellent

"It was the cutest experience. It’s not a stay it is an experience. The host is truly the most beautiful person full of history and stories. Every single thing in this house has a story and I enjoyed learning so much during the tour. The breakfast was amazing and a beautiful spread. I can never stay at a hotel after this. I will always look for bed and breakfast first. Oh! And so many photo opportunities all around the house in porch and yard. It was perfection. Also not haunted 🤗"
