The 10 Most Unique Hotels in Ohio!

Landoll's Mohican Castle, Loudonville, OH

The Mohican Castle in Loudonville was originally constructed in 1996 by Jim Landoll whose passion project was to convert the old barn on his property into a castle. He opened it as a hotel with his wife, Marta, in 2002. It likely would have closed for good after a fire in 2008 destroyed the hotel restaurant, if not for Gordon Ramsey's intervention, when he featured the Mohican castle on his show, “Hotel Hell.” Since then the castle has made a complete turnaround and is thriving more than it has since its original opening.

Great Stone Castle Resorts, Sidney, OH

Complete with a ballroom, banquet hall, and turret rooms, the Great Stone Castle Resort is great for weddings, receptions, parties, romantic getaways and more.

The Barn Inn Bed and Breakfast, Millersburg, OH
