Cheering on the Gamecocks, celebrating a graduation, checking out a new restaurant or meeting friends for sips and live music? Downtown Columbia—from the urban vibe of Main Street to the high energy of The Vista—is ground zero for making great memories.
But before you pack your overnight bag, find the perfect place to lay your head. Whether luxe or lowkey—or something in-between—pick your style and stay where you play in the heart of the capital city.
