The Junto

The Junto is more than just a hotel—it’s a whole vibe. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere felt warm, stylish, and welcoming. The lobby buzzes with energy, often filled with students using it as a casual co-working or study space. The bar and fireplace lounge area create a cozy, inviting ambiance that makes you want to linger. Our stay exceeded expectations across the board. The location was ideal, and the complimentary shuttle made getting to the game effortless. Staff were attentive and friendly, and the entire property was impeccably clean. Morning coffee delivery and the “Old Fashioned for Two” were delightful touches that added charm and fun to the experience. Yes, the price is on the higher side—but it absolutely delivers. Being able to bring our dog and walk her at COSI just across the street was a sweet bonus. We noticed plenty of street parking nearby if you're looking to save, but we opted for valet since we weren’t driving much—and the service was excellent. All in all, our stay at The Junto was the perfect complement to our trip. I’m seriously considering making it my go-to spot whenever I’m in Columbus. We’ll definitely be back

I came to cbus to visit cosi and explore the city a bit. We checked in to the hotel in the evening after being out for the day. I recommend parking in the COSI garage as it’s a $15 flat rate for 24 hours. Entering the hotel is a bit confusing but atmosphere is nice. The front desk staff was very nice. They ended up upgrading us from a king executive room to a suit of sorts. Rooms were very nice. We were given a free welcome drink. This was great too. Food delivery to room is nice. I recommend getting the burgers delivered from the tavern. There is sparking and still water on tap in main area. This will be my spot anytime i’m in the area.

First time at this hotel. Great location. Easy walk to Nationwide Arena. Close to several restaurants/breweries. Great interior and rooms. Anthony greeted us. Great check in experience. Loved the little cafe and the bar. Wonderful, lovely communal space in the lobby. The valet is a bit expensive but worth it, IMHO. Great service from them as well

My experience at The Junto Hotel exceeded my expectations in every way. Between the incredible staff, beautiful rooms, delicious food, and the way they helped make my birthday so memorable, I couldn’t have asked for a better stay. I will absolutely be returning and highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a top-tier experience. Thank you again, Anthony and Charlie, for making it so special!

We stayed at The Junto and loved so many little details, the welcome drink token was such a nice touch and our view was beautiful. The staff were incredibly helpful and valet was absolutely worth it because of how fast and organized they were. The only downsides were the lack of a trash can in the bathroom and some leftover hair in the shower, which wasn’t ideal. Thankfully, the location was great and pickups with Uber were super easy. Overall, we had a really nice stay.

The Junto has officially become "our place" in Columbus. We came back for a two night stay over my birthday in early November and it somehow managed to top every previous visit. From the minute we pulled up, the hospitality was dialed in. Warm greeting at the door, easy check in, and that feeling that the staff actually recognizes and cares about you. We started our days at Maudine’s with excellent coffee and pastries, then bounced between lunch and happy hour in the lower bar. Every dish and drink felt considered, not generic hotel food. In the evening we ended up at Brass Eye for a nightcap, looking out over the city with great cocktails and relaxed, unpretentious vibes. The suite we stay in with the oversized tub feels like it was built for us. Modern. Cozy. Romantic. Huge soaking tub, great shower, super comfortable bed, and thoughtful design details everywhere you look. Every stay at The Junto somehow becomes more magical than the last. If you are looking for a place in Columbus that combines design, comfort, and genuinely kind people... stay here.

We just returned from a staycation at The Junto with our two young kids, and it truly exceeded every expectation. We paired our stay with a visit to COSI, and The Junto was the perfect home base for a family getaway. From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make our stay special. They were incredibly warm, attentive, and genuinely thoughtful—especially with our kids. The surprise of cookies and milk waiting for them was such a lovely touch and instantly made them feel welcomed and excited. It’s the kind of detail that turns a great stay into a memorable one. The activity room was another huge win for our family. Having board games available gave the kids a fun place to unwind, laugh, and play together, which made the stay feel relaxed and easy for us as parents. And the restaurant—absolutely amazing. The food was outstanding, and the atmosphere struck the perfect balance between upscale and family-friendly. It was refreshing to enjoy such a high-quality dining experience without feeling out of place with young children. The Junto has clearly mastered the art of hospitality, especially for families. This was more than just a hotel stay—it was an experience we’ll be talking about for a long time. We can’t wait to come back and would recommend The Junto without hesitation to anyone looking for a thoughtful, welcoming, and truly special stay.

The vibe! The staff! We had a blast! Not only was the vibe of this place on point, the staff was incredibly helpful. We were new to the area and they helped us find all the yummies in town and cool places to hangout. They even laughed at our puny jokes. Oh, and the beds were the best! Highly recommend
