Find Hotels with Free Parking in Columbia, SC

The Lantern is a converted 1950s-era firehouse in the heart of Columbia's exciting Vista district. The conversion is AMAZING from a design POV, and a lot of fun to experience. I also loved is its commitment to providing meaningful employment opportunities for people with disabilities, who make up 30% of its staff. They were lovely. I've already booked my second stay.

This property and ALL of the staff are fabulous! I love boutique hotels and this one is now at the top of the list as one of my favorites. The decor is nice. The beds are comfy. It’s walking distance to restaurants and shopping. They offer free breakfast and did I mention complimentary wine and popcorn upon checking in!!! I will be back!!!

This was a very clean hotel.

Great staff!

Very clean and comfy place. Good breakfast, really enjoyed it.

I needed a place to stay close by to the hospital while my husband had surgery, but wanted a warm comfortable place. The place was just what I needed. Shanna was warm and welcoming, and couldn't have done more to make my stay a good one. I felt very much at home. The inn was beautifully decorated and well kept. Breakfast was excellent and there were snacks available at all times, a plus after a long day at the hospital. I would highly recommend this place.

Being from out of state the location of this hotel was rather nice for the purpose of visiting fort jackson for family day and graduation very easy to get to base. The room was emmaculate and all of the amenities were superb! The beds are super comfy and the pillows are the best! Would definitely stay again!!!

Warning: I’ll be naming names in this review. To say that I was impressed is the understatement of the year! I am every hotels worst nightmare when it comes to my level of pickiness as a guest because I check everywhere. Well, this hotel beat me to the punch! Room 113 was so clean that we booked a second night just to extend our stay there. Sindy was responsible for cleaning my room so I found her and asked how she got it so clean. When she told me the entire cleaning staff uses black...

The room was very clean. Beds comfortable. Dana checked us in and she was super friendly and helpful. Actually the whole staff was super friendly. Breakfast was good. Will definitely stay again.

Clean and good food

We have a child at the university and stayed here for a weekend visit. I had never been, but my husband had stayed years ago for a swim meet. He insisted I book here, though I wanted to stay at the Hilton. I was so pleasantly surprised when I arrived at the Staybridge! The staff was super friendly, and exceptionally efficient. The room was very spacious, and the little kitchen was perfect! The included breakfast was also excellent. I will stay here every visit to Columbia!

This was a great place to stay. Our room was very spacious, clean, quiet and the bed was very comfortable. Would definitely recommend.

Room is rundown and could use an upgrade on the cabinets but overall clean and spacious.

Stayed 2 nights, Nice hotel, large rooms and clean. Only negative comment was the breakfast area tables were not keep clean, I had to clean our table ourself before sitting down. The breakfast itself was acceptable.

Very picturesque area. I wish the parking fee would have been more obvious. I missed it during the booking. It was $15 p/day.

Perfect!!
