A Review of The Junto in Columbus, Ohio | Hotels Above Par - Boutique Hotels & Travel
"Located in the new Peninsula development within the Franklinton Arts District, this four-star hotel serves as a social-minded gateway to Columbus with 198 rooms ranging from standard accommodations and downtown lofts to bunk rooms and an expansive apartment. Public spaces center on a lobby-forward concept inspired by Benjamin Franklin’s civic club, where a communal Trade Room provides coworking by day and a buzzy bar by night and hosts evening “Trade Room Talks” with local cultural voices. Design leans mid-century and industrial with bright corridors and tranquil, blue-hued guest rooms; on-site amenities include multiple dining outlets, outdoor fireplaces, sun terraces and gardens, a fitness center, pet-friendly rooms, and a signature gear-lending program that supplies bikes, kayaks, GoPros and picnic kits for adventurous guests. Rates start around $197/night and the property positions visitors conveniently between downtown and galleries, breweries, and parks."
