The Blackwell Inn is an upscale full-service hotel located on-campus at The Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio. It is located adjacent to The Max M. Fisher College of Business. The Blackwell Inn is named after Roger Blackwell, a marketing professor who pledged $7 million to the university in 2001.[1] Ohio State operates the hotel, and it is the only hotel located on campus.

History[]

The Blackwell Inn was built as a part of Phase III of the Fisher College of Business. It first opened to the public in 2002.[2] The Blackwell was used as a student dormitory, and for quarantine housing during the COVID-19 pandemic.[3]
