At the Columbus Zoo, Jack Hanna's legacy lives on through conservation programs and surprisingly personal animal encounters.

Drury Inn & Suites Columbus Polaris

8/10 Good

"Comfortable bed."

Holiday Inn Columbus Dwtn-Capitol Square by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is in downtown and convenient to many restaurants and businesses. It is also within walking distance to a number of attractions. It has its own restaurant where we enjoyed a good, reasonably priced breakfast and drinks in the evening. The Woodbury restaurant next door was excellent and offered a second dining option within steps. The hotel has a large, easily accessible parking lot for a small fee. The large room was clean and very quiet at night, and the bed was comfortable with lots of pillows. The bathroom was a bit small but had plenty of towels and amenities. The only negative was that we used the service elevator throughout the day because the other elevators did not seem to be running."

Hyatt Place Columbus/Worthington

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean and spacious. Great breakfast and snacks available. Bed was comfortable. Not fond of the pillows, but I'm a pillow snob and should just bring my own."
