Imagine beer and a hotel experience put together – count me in!  Well, your dreams have come true thanks to the BrewDog’s DogHouse in Columbus, Ohio – the world’s first crowdfunded craft beer hotel!

This hotel caught my attention when I read that there is a designated “lobby bartender.”  Instead of a typical check-in process, this bartender welcomes you with a complimentary craft beer.  Now that is a great way to say “Welcome!”

The Scottish company BrewDog announced a campaign to crowdfund the DogHouse Hotel in Columbus.  And only 17 months later, it is now standing!  Waking up inside a brewery is definitely an experience to be had.

The 32-room hotel has everything for the beer enthusiast.  From beer taps in your room, to fridges AND showers stocked with brews – this hotel is prepared for the beer connoisseur.   Each room is unique, all with a view of the OverWorks sour beer facility – this is a one of a kind experience.  And every room has a 42″ flat screen TV, Wi-Fi, a mini fridge with stocked beer, rainfall showerheads (my personal favorite!), in-room local coffee, and locally crafted beer soaps from Glenn Avenue Soap Company.

The hotel also includes great activities for beer lovers such as beer pong, an interactive beer museum, and a beer-infused spa.

Along with these great amenities, the hotel even has dog-friendly rooms!

The rooms range anywhere from 385 to 645 square feet in size, and cost $162 to $284 per night.  You can’t book the hotel through any 3rd-party sites such as Hotels.com, so you’ll have to book directly through their website.  But you can still earn rewards if you pay for your stay with one of our top travel rewards credit cards!
