Top Governor's Mansion Hotel Reviews

Graduate by Hilton Columbia SC

10/10 Excellent

"We are returning customers, having stayed at The Graduate Columbia many times. Love the property and friendly helpful staff."

Cambria Hotel Columbia Downtown The Vista

8/10 Good

"The hotel is well located in downtown Columbia, SC. It is clean, well maintained and the staff is very personable and helpful. The only issue I had was the hot water in the bathroom sink took 5 minutes to get hot. Thankfully the shower did not take that long. Everything else about the hotel was excellent and I would definitely recommend it to others."

Hotel Trundle

8/10 Good

"Trundle is a unique property focused on delivering a unique thematic approach to their hotel services to both business and personal customers. I found the facility condition and breakfast offerings excellent. They are also convenient to downtown and University of South Carolina. Perhaps most important, their rooms are clean and beds are comfortable."
