Top South Carolina Military Museum Hotel Reviews

Tru By Hilton Columbia Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms were clean, comfortable, and conveniently located."

Hilton Columbia Center

8/10 Good

"Even though the property is a bit older, it is maintained pretty well. Although, no one told us it was under construction when I booked, and when I called to ask about other items. It's under pretty major construction with a good bit of noise in the lobby currently. And there were pallets and construction areas left in the parking garage too. I know they are upgrading the place, but would've been nice to know, or a discount offered. Overall, the place was nice and very convenient to the Columbia Metropolitan convention center."
