Crescent Hotels & Resorts has added the Renaissance Columbus Downtown Hotel to its portfolio. The 408-room property is owned by Whitestone Companies and represents continued growth for Crescent in the branded lifestyle segment.

This new hotel development blends the reach of a global brand with the character of an independent property. Crescent plans to introduce guest experiences and design elements inspired by Columbus’s creative energy.

Located in the heart of downtown Columbus, the Renaissance Columbus Downtown Hotel is within walking distance of leading restaurants, cultural attractions, and the Short North Arts District. The property features modern guest accommodations, a rooftop pool and bar with skyline views, and more than 22,500 square feet of flexible meeting and event space.

The hotel will offer amenities that support meetings, events, and city-centered experiences.
