Ohio G2G

So I saw that Columbus the weekend of January 29-31 was the verdict, right?

I just wanted to offer my services to squirrly, or whoever is taking the lead on planning this - squirrly?  I live in town so I can offer suggestions on bars, restaurants, hotels, etc. if you tell me a little bit about what you're thinking.

    Yup, I'm the one who came up with this idea.  :)  I've really only been through Columbus, so I'm definitely open for help. 

    I know different people will have different availability, arrival times, etc.  I figured we'd plan for Saturday afternoon/evening, but maybe offer up suggestions for Friday night, if anybody is going to get there in time.  The only particularly awesome thing I know of first-hand is the outlet mall with White House | Black Market.  :)

    I know Whit & LVB & I will drive up together, so our arrival will be heavily dictated by when Whit can get out on Friday.

    Dresses may be easier to take in than let out, but guest lists are not. -- kate51485

    I just did a quick Expedia search and it looks like Jeffersonville area hotels are between $70-$85/night and downtown Columbus hotels are between $85-$100.  I didn't check Easton but I'd imagine there are some very close.  I know it's close to the airport and hotels there run shuttles to Easton.

    Stack, is there a website with stuff about the downtown area like that Easton one that abbalish posted?

    Just popping back in to confirm that there are Easton hotels.  As part of the complex, there's a Hilton, a Courtyard and a Residence Inn, and there's a Hampton a really quick drive away. 

    Downtown/Arena District is nice too.  There's a Buca di Beppo there, which could be fun with a big group, and a bunch of bars. 

    I am up for anything!

    About 3.5 to 4 hours, I think.

    Cincy is 90 minutes from Louisville.  I think C-bus is another hour, hour & a half past that?

    Yea, Louisville definitely isn't very close.  Cincinnati could be a daytime trip from Columbus but any farther south is pushing it a little.

    www.experiencecolumbus.com is another good site for things that are going on and places to stay around here.
