Hampton Inn Columbia-Downtown Historic District
4.3/5103 Reviews

Hampton Inn Columbia-Downtown Historic District

Columbia|2.35km from city centre
The first challenge here was access. The hotel fronts on Gervais Street, but you have to access the parking lot from Lincoln Street. They have gated parking, but you can press a button to be buzzed in when you first arrive. After that, your room key can be used to access the lot. The sign said that guest parking was $14 per day. Check in was fairly quick. We got a room on the 4th floor (of 5). They had multiple luggage carts of at least 2 different types (I saw at least 4 total), which I pay somewhat more attention to now after staying in a larger place that only had 1... The hotel seemed quiet. Rooms toward the back would probably help in this regard. The location is on a main street in town, about 2 - 3 blocks from the state capitol building complex. It is a short walk (5 minutes or less) to a large number of restaurants or bars in the area. If you are here on a weekend, the Soda City Market is located on (mostly closed for just pedestiran use) Main Street starting about 5 blocks away. Breakfast was included with the stay. It started at 6 a.m. on the Saturday we were there for it. I'd say it was about average for what hotels are providing now, post-Covid. I had enough to eat, anyway. Our room was fine; we only had one bath towel for some reason, but we didn't notice until it wasn't convenient to request a 2nd one. The bed was comfortable. I've stayed in 3 different hotels now in / near Columbia. For staying in the walkable radius of downtown, this is a good option.

Let’s start with the positive. MOST of the staff were very Courteous, helpful and professional, except 1 front desk staff who was snappy and rude. Our room was not cleaned for the two nights we were there. Apparently, Hilton has a new rule where you have to request for your room to be cleaned. Or else, it won’t be cleaned daily. I needed fresh towels and I was told I needed to bring down the dirty ones myself, take them to the laundry room and then I was given 2 new/clean towels. I asked for more because we were are family of five and I got snapped at. The Elevator was broken and so we had to take the stairs. My son has a sport injury and was in a lot of pain climbing to the 3rd floor. No accommodations were made. There was a large trash can located just outside the elevators doors adjacent to our room and it stayed mostly full and smelly. We ran out of body wash and when I called the front desk, I was asked to bring down the bottle for a refill. When I reminded the staff that the body wash was literally bolted to the wall, she said ‘oh yes, you can’t move it. We are out of body wash any way, but I can give you bar soaps’. So, I went down for the bar soap, and she gave me 2 tiny soaps. The business center was closed due to construction/renovations, so we had to go downtown for our printing and business needs. 1 front desk staff was gracious and asked me to email him my items and he would print out for me. The pool was closed due to construction, so the kids were very disappointed. Two mugs in the kitchen cabinet were dirty with lipstick stain on them.

The room is renovated and relatively new. The cleanliness is ok on the surface, the coffee pot is very dirty. Breakfast ends too early. The location is very good, the surrounding shopping and restaurants are very convenient.

TownePlace Suites Columbia Northwest/Harbison

We booked this hotel knowing they had a pool and a small kitchenette. We stayed for 6 nights. Upon arrival we were told that the pool is out of service. We were told they were waiting for a call back from the pool guy. We called down on our final night there and told that the pool was still out of service. They did offer us to go up the street to sister hotel to use their pool (this was nice and all, but when you have 3 little kids this is NOT an easy or quick thing). We did not get any room service with the exception of our 2nd day. This consisted of them handing me new towels at the door and I handed them the trash. We had to ask for them to come to our room for this. We had to bring our own trash to the dumpster daily. We also had to ask for trash bags daily. I can understand if you may be one of their long term residents but we clearly were not. Very small continental breakfast and did not change at all during our stay. They had bagel sandwiches and make your own waffles, along with yogurt and fruit cups, bread and bagels. They had cranberry juice and oj, but did not offer ice water. Staff was extremely friendly, and one staff made multiple recommendations for us of restaurants to try. Hotel was clean and on site laundry is great! ($1.50 to wash and $1.50 to dry)
Fairfield Inn Columbia Northwest/Harbison

I stayed here for a week due to bereavement in the area. I was hesitant and was actually only planning to stay one night then move to a different hotel. The hotel is under new management and has some work to be done. But the staff makes up for it. Shalena and Ms Dee are the best! They were kind, friendly and genuinely cared about my stay. I would stay here a million more times over due to the staff. Breakfast was great and housekeeping checked with me everyday!
