Lodging
There are two hotels in downtown Columbus offering conference rates for the Southeast Horn Workshop. In addition, Columbus has a wide range of hotels, many built within the last four years. Hotels in North Columbus are about 10–15 minutes from the RiverCenter for the Performing Arts by car, as downtown Columbus is easily accessible from Interstate 185 and Highway 80.
Since Columbus is very near Fort Benning, many hotels do fill up on weekends, and so you are encouraged to book on the early side for the workshop.
To receive the conference rate at the two hotels listed below, mention that you are with the “Southeast Horn Workshop.”
- Columbus Marriott
- (706) 324-1800
- 800 Front Avenue (just across the street from the RiverCenter)
- $125 per night
- Howard Johnson Inn & Suites Columbus
- (706) 322-6641
- (800) 446-4656
- 1011 Veterans Parkway (four blocks from the RiverCenter)
- $55 single bed, $65 double beds
In addition, there are two other hotels within the downtown radius: the Quality Inn and the Econo Lodge, both on Veterans Parkway. Finally, the Rothschild-Pound House is a very nice B&B about four blocks from the RiverCenter in the Historic District: (706) 322-4075.
(We do not, however, have a conference rate with any of these three places.)
