Top Columbia Regional Visitors Center Hotel Reviews

Hotel Trundle

10/10 Excellent

"Really fun atmosphere! Appreciated the complimentary welcome drink. Great location"

The Lantern Hotel Columbia

8/10 Good

"The Lantern is a very nice hotel with a true boutique personality. The building has been restored with real vision and you can tell a top designer shaped the look. The style is modern and creative. I respect what the team is trying to build and I appreciate the effort from the staff. They deserve success. One thing I noticed and genuinely respected is that the hotel seems to employ individuals who may have unique challenges or special needs. They showed real effort and commitment in their roles. At times you could see certain tasks were difficult, and when situations got a little tense they seemed to get nervous, so I eased up. They still finished the job and that meant something to me, It meant a lot. It showed heart and it showed that the hotel is giving people opportunities, and I admire that. Just know what you’re walking into. This is not a full‑service, all‑hours operation like you’d find in NYC, Miami, Chicago, San Juan or San Francisco. Room service is not a thing, the restaurant opens later, the bar closes early and while check‑in is simple, it’s not going to be the"

Homewood Suites By Hilton Columbia Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Rooms are great!! Staff were very nice and pleasant! Will definitely book here again!"

Cambria Hotel Columbia Downtown The Vista

8/10 Good

"The hotel is well located in downtown Columbia, SC. It is clean, well maintained and the staff is very personable and helpful. The only issue I had was the hot water in the bathroom sink took 5 minutes to get hot. Thankfully the shower did not take that long. Everything else about the hotel was excellent and I would definitely recommend it to others."

Holiday Inn Columbia - Downtown by IHG
