Come As You Are, Leave Better Than You Were

In 1727, Benjamin Franklin — you may have heard of him — founded a “club for mutual improvement,” which he styled The Junto. Ben’s club brought together people from diverse backgrounds to discuss issues and ideas of the time.

The Junto hotel is a modern-day embodiment of this idea. With an emphasis on public gathering spaces, our hotel gives visitors, locals, entrepreneurs, and artists alike a place to come together, exchange ideas, and inspire one another.

A Place for Likeminded Individuals

The Scioto Peninsula, positioned directly across the river from Downtown Columbus, and the United States’ #1 science museum for families, COSI, sits The Junto. We are part of the city’s most exciting transformation driven by—and surrounded by—its budding creative community and art scene, welcoming locals to a family friendly neighborhood.

We wanted to create a destination where people gather, share ideas, spend time, and create a sense of place. Breaking ground in May 2020, just a “little west” of downtown—revitalizing this industrial area for people to come together and enjoy each other and the experiences that surround them.

The Junto is both a destination and a landmark, helping to define and add value to the future of Columbus — and yours as well.
