It is named after Dr Edward Orton, Sr. who served as Ohio State's first president, OSU Professor of Geology from 1873 to 1899, and Ohio's State Geologist from 1882 until his death in 1899. Orton Hall is built of 40 different Ohio building stones. In the outside walls, these stones are laid in stratigraphic order according to their relative positions in Ohio's bedrock. The only non-indigenous to Ohio stone used is Indiana Limestone to build the front steps. It was chosen because of its high concentration of embedded fossils. The bell tower was dedicated in 1915 and contains 25,000 pounds of bells that can be heard regularly tolling across campus. Encircling the top of the tower are 24 columns with gargoyle-like figures which are restorations of fossil animals. ](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/874/f039bfe9-6438-491c-877b-af13e9f1c981.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Ohio State University 3 min drive \- 2.1 km - Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center 15 min walk \- 1.3 km - James Cancer Hospital 17 min walk \- 1.5 km - Schottenstein Center 3 min drive \- 2.8 km ### Getting around - John Glenn Columbus Intl.

It is about a half hour walk to the stadium. The staff was wonderful. The room was spartan and a bit beat up but clean. I know the ridiculous price was based on location and not amenities. It has a parking lot and they allowed me to park 2 cars which was great on a game day. The on site bar was hopping and had a great vibe. ##### jennifer Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jamie Nov 5, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Very clean modern would definitely stay again ##### Jamie Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Candace May 7, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Comfy beds and close uber to everything!
