7 Hostels hotel in Ohio: Best hotel deals for 2023

April 19, 2023 Esmeralda Fenner

If you are looking for an active place to stay with world-class attractions, Ohio’s major cities can satisfy any vacation desire. Each offers its own distinct flavor of fun, from professional sports – Bengals (Cincinnati), Cavaliers (Cleveland) and Indians (Cleveland again) – to museums, outdoor activities and more. One of the most famous is the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland. If football is your thing, don’t miss the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton. For the science-minded, visit the meat eaters at the Carnivore Conservation Center in the Wilds near Cambridge, dedicated to the breeding and scientific study of endangered mid-sized carnivores. Kids will also love Planet Snoopy in Sandusky or the Columbus Zoo’s Zoombezi Bay Waterpark and Jack’s Landing rides.

Wayfaring Buckeye Hostel

Warm safe environment

Reviewed By mommacatt

We stayed here 1 night and found the property manager very friendly and helpful. It is a clean place and the neighborhood seemed safe as well. We walked to a restaurant about 4 blocks away and had no problems. Our room was the owner's suite, a queen bed and our own room. We did share bathrooms, not utilizing the showers. Everybody who was staying there while we were there was friendly. We have stayed in hostels before and always rent our own private room, sometimes with our own bath. Great economical way to travel!

Stanford House

The Stanford House is located inside Ohio's very own Cuyahoga Valley National Park. This historic farmhouse sleeps 30 people with 9 guest rooms and communal dining and living rooms. There is a fully equipped kitchen with everything one would need to cook or cater a gourmet meal, and an outside fire-pit with pre-cut wood available. With direct access to multiple trail-heads, guests can hike or bike the Towpath Trail, backpack to Brandywine Falls, or ride the train throughout the Cuyahoga Valley. We are perfect for family gatherings, weekend getaways, and corporate retreats.

Quilting retreat

Reviewed By rebeccaj300

My quilting guild stayed here for a retreat. Nestled in the park, we enjoyed the space and the amenities. The hosts were on point, we enjoyed the space, the company and some serious quilting got done. With the views and hiking trails nearby, we could take breaks, or use the large, nicely furnished kitchen to fix our next feast.

Company Christmas Party

Reviewed By Logan M

This is the second year my place of employment has had their Christmas party here. The first year was average but this year was terrible. They doubled booked three of the rooms they have and mine was one. When we got there, there was no record of us yet we had an email confirming our room and a receipt from our bank showing the money for the room had been taken out. We were told that since it was an automated email that we should have known to call and double check our confirmation. We were told by two employees that we would get a full refund but only got half of our money back. Since they double booked so many rooms we had to split 8 people between 2 rooms. They were very unprofessional about the whole situation and the front desk person blamed us for the double booking saying we should have called to confirm our room which I have never had to do before. The food was decent and the activities they had planned were great but they have terrible customer service skills which ruined most of the night for us.

Great Roof top view -refurbished building hostel

Reviewed By Sunshine829162

Medium size hostel with great roof top, close to many bars, eateries and events. Staff was helpful in finding activites and events. AC works well. Towel provided. One bathroom appeared slightly dirty. And my bed was slept in and no sheet changed. But my roommate had a great made up bed. If it wasn't for the sheets thing I would have give it a 4.7

Short North Guesthouse

Cozy B&B Vibes

Reviewed By Juliasworld

I stayed here in June in the loft room. I found everything extremely cute & quaint as well as well-kept and clean. Though we never saw another person in the space, I didn't need to, and actually enjoyed the privacy. Though the caretakers were very responsive via email so I was never concerned. The loft ladder was steep, so just be aware of that if you are older or nervous about heights (night time bathroom breaks were a little tricky). I also HIGHLY recommend going to the Fox in the Snow for breakfast. You will receive free vouchers. It's a couple block walk but the atmosphere is super hip, the food is delicious, and they have a nice outdoor patio for nice days. I would definitely come back. It was cheap, easy, comfortable and extremely pleasant.

Bessemer Hostel

The Bessemer Hostel offers quality lodging in a rustic hostel with great views of the Wayne National Forest. I have stayed in more than a hundred hostels around the world and mine is by far the cleanest and most quiet. A hiking trail goes from the hostel into thousands of acres of forest. A pool table is in the south porch with great views of the forest and sunsets. The house itself is very historic, having been built in the mid 1800s. The owner is the author of 4 environmental books, and he has a large library in the hostel as well.

This place is amazing! Very safe. Chad has cameras installed in all the rooms and bathrooms to make sure you are having a safe peaceful evening, it is very comforting to be watched over. Also most of the proceeds go towards his moon base, so you also feel good giving to a good cause. Great man and author, he has accomplished so much despite having a chip implanted in his brain by OUR OWN GOVERNMENT!

Convenient for our guests

Reviewed By SlRiv R

Each year, we have a youth conference in Lakeside. Some of the local rentals do not want youth in their homes. Maxwell House is always willing and able to accommodate us. We are thankful for their hospitality!
