Top Columbia Metropolitan Convention Center Hotel Reviews

Moxy Columbia Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"The rooftop bar and location are impeccable. This is my second stay. I love it both times"

Homewood Suites By Hilton Columbia Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Wow, this seems like a new property. Attentive staff, very well kept building. The rooms were huge and well equipped. Very nice bathroom. I used the washer and dryer (you need to download an app) and it was not expensive. Great breakfast Nice gym Parking was $12.00"

Hyatt Place Columbia/Downtown/The Vista

4/10 Poor

"Overall, hotel was clean and updated, and the staff was friendly (with one exception). There is a mandatory $20 parking fee - not an issue, but the parking situation is awful. We paid the fee, but there was no attendant to give us the card for the garage. The person at the desk told us not to worry about it, just give them our room number and they’d mark us down for when we came back later that day after checking in. When we got back, there were no available parking spaces and we couldn’t get into the overflow garage because we didn’t have the ticket from the valet/parking attendant being absent earlier in the day. I waited in the car behind a couple other of vehicles for valet to come and get us situated. After several minutes with no movement, I went inside to the front desk and told them about the situation. They said valet had stepped out and they didn’t know when they’d be back. I explained that I was stuck with my three toddlers in the car and could t park because they hadn’t given me a ticket when I paid earlier. At this point there was a line of 7-8 cars behind me with no one able to park or get into their room because of the situation. The one staff member at the front desk was clearly overwhelmed and unable to help us. Valet finally showed up and we were able to get parked around 45 minutes after getting there, which is an eternity with young kids in tow. Overall, the hotel was great, but the parking situation truly spoiled the stay."

SpringHill Suites by Marriott Columbia Downtown/The Vista

8/10 Good

"The hotel is clean, beds comfortable, and convenient to downtown. Staff friendly and helpful. Stayed here before but was disappointed that the pool water was cloudy, so I did not use. Looked forward to indoor pool and was clean my earlier visit. The breakfast was tasty last time, but also was disappointing this visit. Hotel pretty empty but food should be hot, if served hot."
