The Spotlight on Country Inn & Suites by Radisson Columbia SC

Cozy Comfort Just Minutes from Columbia’s Live Music

Modern, welcoming, and budget-friendly, the Country Inn & Suites by Radisson Columbia SC is a great choice for concert-goers seeking easy access to downtown Columbia without the downtown prices. Just a 13-minute drive from city center venues and only 6.4 miles from the Columbia Metropolitan Convention Center, this hotel offers a relaxed Southern vibe with practical perks like free WiFi, an indoor pool, and complimentary parking. Rooms include a microwave and fridge—perfect for late-night snacks after the show.

Why Concert-goers love it

Whether you're heading to a packed arena or a cozy club, this hotel’s location makes late-night returns a breeze. It's far enough from the downtown hustle for a quiet night’s rest, but close enough (around 13 minutes) to get to most shows without stress. With free parking, flexible check-in at 3:00 PM, and cozy rooms with cable TV, it’s an ideal base for music lovers. Bonus: the indoor pool and fitness center help you unwind or recharge post-show.

Who this Hotel is great for

Groups of friends looking for a budget-friendly stay with room to hang out
Solo travelers on a music pilgrimage
Couples planning a low-key concert weekend
Fans needing a quiet space to rest up after the encore
Budget-conscious music lovers who don’t want to compromise on comfort

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant, each room includes a microwave and fridge, so you can stock up on snacks or reheat leftovers at any hour. The hotel offers a free hot breakfast—perfect after a late night out. Nearby casual dining spots are just a short drive away, and delivery options are plentiful.

Nightlife Options

You won’t find live music on-site, but you’re a quick drive or rideshare away from Columbia’s buzzing nightlife. Local bars, lounges, and venues are all within easy reach, so you can catch an encore or grab a nightcap before heading back to your room.

What People Say

Guests love the quiet atmosphere, friendly staff, and convenient location. Many mention the clean, spacious rooms and appreciate the easy parking and reliable WiFi. It's often praised for being a solid, affordable home base for events downtown.

Areas for Improvement

It’s not the trendiest hotel in town, and some areas could use a refresh—but for the price, most guests find it more than worth it. If you’re looking for luxury or nightlife on-site, this might not be your pick, but for comfort and convenience, it delivers.

The Bottom Line

A quiet, affordable, and well-located hotel that makes it easy to enjoy Columbia’s live music scene without the downtown noise or price tag.

Will not stay here again

Liked: Location
Disliked: Booked 2 rooms. Needed one with 2 beds. Both had one bed. Because used booking.com they wouldn’t switch out one of the rooms to a double. Asked for extra pillows for couch bed and was told they only had one pillow available. I find this hard to believe that a major hotel would only have one extra pillow. WILL NOT STAY AT A COUNTRY INN AGAIN. Did not make any effort to make our stay enjoyable.

It was ok for an...

Liked: Staff were very friendly
Disliked: The property was very outdated. I wouldn’t say the hotel was necessarily dirty but due to its age and neglect it definitely didn’t appear as clean. The breakfast left much to be desired.
