The Spotlight on Marriott Columbia

Downtown Comfort Just Steps from Columbia's Music Scene

Modern and polished, the Marriott Columbia places you right in the heart of downtown, just minutes from Columbia’s most popular music venues and nightlife. With a sleek design and Southern charm, this hotel blends convenience with comfort, perfect for travelers heading into town for a concert or live show. Spacious rooms, a heated indoor pool, and an on-site restaurant make it a standout base for your music-fueled getaway.

Why Concert-goers love it

The location is hard to beat—only a short drive or even a walk to top venues like Township Auditorium and The Senate. After the encore, retreat to quiet, comfortable rooms that help you wind down. With a late 12:00 PM checkout and free car charging stations, it’s also great for those driving in for a show. The vibe is relaxed yet upscale, and staff are known for being helpful with late-night arrivals.

Who this Hotel is great for

Groups of friends looking for a central crash pad
Solo travelers catching a once-in-a-lifetime tour
Couples making a weekend of dinner and a show
Fans in need of a peaceful place to recharge
Budget-conscious music lovers who appreciate value without sacrificing comfort

Food and Drink Options

Enjoy breakfast at Midlands restaurant, serving up Southern comfort classics to help you recover after a late night. The on-site lounge offers lighter fare and drinks, perfect for a post-show snack. While 24/7 room service isn’t listed, the hotel’s central location means walkable late-night eats are easy to find nearby.

Nightlife Options

The hotel lounge is a laid-back spot to grab a drink and catch up with friends. Step outside and you’re a short stroll from downtown Columbia’s bars, craft breweries, and live music venues. Whether you're into chill cocktails or high-energy post-show fun, you’ll find it close by.

What People Say

Guests rave about the clean, spacious rooms and the hotel’s prime location near shops, restaurants, and entertainment. Many mention the friendly staff and easy parking. The beds are often described as very comfortable, making it a great place to rest after dancing all night.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests noted that enhanced Wi-Fi comes with a fee, which might be a downside for those wanting to stream or post their concert highlights. Also, a few rooms don’t come with a mini-fridge unless requested—but reception is quick to accommodate.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers wanting a central, comfortable, and stylish stay near Columbia’s live music venues, Marriott Columbia hits all the right notes.

Pleasant - 3.0 out of 5

Deborah, Mattapan, visiting Township Auditorium

I would like to make a recommendation, and that would be to have the presence of security there in the hotel. I was confronted twice by men who were not staying at the hotel, but were there to solicit money from the hotel customers. Not a good feeling when you are attempting to get to your room and you're not sure if they are planning to hop the elevator with you.

Liked: The food at the restaurant and the hotel bar. Taylor, the bartender was excellent. He was professional and personable.
Disliked: My room was a handicap room, which I would have preferred the front desk to tell me that when I checked in. However, they did not. I did not enjoy the room at all!

Liz N, Charlotte

I was definitely disappointed at having to wait on the room, not having any toiletries, and seeing the thin mattresses on the beds. But I was pleased with the pleasant staff and the hotel was within walking distance of the venue.

Liked: Nice staff; decent hotel bar; good location.
Disliked: Room wasn't ready on time; we had to call down to front desk to request toiletries (they forgot to put them in our room), which then didn't get brought up until hours later; really crummy mattresses.

Alice, Travelers Rest, SC

Hotel staff were friendly and helpful. Room was clean and in proper order. Had dinner in bar area before setting off to concert. Only complaint was noisy guests in hallway after midnight!

Liked: Easy to locate as entering city; close to venue we were attending (Township Auditorium).
