Columbus, the state capital of Ohio, is nicknamed the “Indie Art Capital,” so exploring museums and art exhibits here would be worthwhile. Columbus is also home to one of the country’s oldest and most beautiful parks, including the Victorian-inspired Goodale Park and the famed Scioto Mile. The latter is a 175-acre (71-hectare) urban oasis full of lush greenery and festive parks on both sides of the Scioto River. Visit and enjoy its scenic trails, bikeways, restaurants, interactive fountains, as well as hip hop bars and clubs. Given the beautiful scenery around, it is recommended to stay in hotels with balconies in Columbus to best appreciate the views. Check out our list of the best hotels with balcony in Columbus, Ohio.
