Romantic Getaways in Columbus

Ohio’s capital city, there is no shortage of things to do in Columbus. You’ll find art, culture, and beautiful hotels that cater to romantic getaways.

My husband and I spent our 26th anniversary with a stay at Hotel LeVeque in downtown Columbus. It was the perfect romantic getaway and the hotel staff went above and beyond to make us feel special. From turn down service with the best tasting chocolate and your own private dark sky on the ceiling of your room to an in-room breakfast, we couldn’t have been more pampered.

Romantic Getaways in Cincinnati

Cincinnati is bustling with art, great foodie spots, and venues that offer incredible views of the Ohio River. This is a great romantic getaway destination for those looking for variety. You can enjoy a couple hours at the aquarium across the river in Newport, take in a Reds game or take a self-guided mural tour. OR, you can hone in on one theme and make a weekend of it.

My husband and I enjoyed a stay at 21C, part hotel, part art museum, and at a fantastic meal at Metropole. The food was phenomenal!
