Hotel's Favorite
When we checked in the night manager told us the restaurant and bar were closed. We thought that was very gracious of him but we stayed. He recommended a great pizza joint that delivered to us. The pizza was so good. Hotel was great, beds were so comfortable and rooms neat and clean. Definitely be back here again.

Stopped here overnight driving from Florida to Massachusetts. Everything about our stay was great. Clean, comfortable room with micro and refrig (great for our trip snacks!). Spacious lobby with seating areas and a marketplace to buy snacks and sundries. Jeff greeted me at check in and was very welcoming. He suggested the in-house restaurant and we decided that was ideal after a long day on the road.
Our bartender/ server, Nicole was delightful (and hard working, as was the cook). She was making drinks, taking orders, preparing take out, etc., all with a smile. The Brussels Sprouts appetizer was terrific! My husband and I enjoyed the ribeye (comes with four grilled shrimp, mashed and sautéed spinach...I stole the latter) and grilled Caesar salad.
Our morning breakfast was also great. Eggs your way, tater tots, sausage, bacon, toast, juice etc.
Best of all, it was great to see business travelers again. We met one man in the elevator who said it was his first trip in 15 months!
This HGI is still doing a great job with cleanliness, masks, etc. we will be back if in the area. Easy on/off I-26.

This property is very nice for the area. The staff is super friendly and helpful! They were able to accommodate us with extra blankets when needed and suggestions for car service when we had an issue arise with our van.
The room was clean and the beds were comfortable. There were many snacks to choose from for purchase in the shop area and the free coffee was available at all hours. The breakfast is not included in the price, but for $9 it was good- the made to order eggs were delicious and even though there wasn't a large variety of items available (thanks pandemic!), it was enough to find something.
All in all a nice stay and we would stay here again.

Our stay was nice … for the most part everyone was very nice and helpful. Breakfast was lacking (on Sunday we were given real silverware & had a “waitress”, on Monday it was plastic utensils & told to us by the lady making our eggs). Omelets cost more than fried eggs but you’re not told that until your bill comes. I was EXTREMELY disappointed and surprised that there was no indication the room were cleaned & sanitized, wonder why Hilton has stopped with the door tags. That little indication was comforting while traveling during the pandemic.
The Hilton Garden Hinn Columbia is worth your stop - you will not be disappointed (knowing the flaws ahead of time)

From the beginning the staff was unfriendly and seemed annoyed when I asked about the rates. I'm a military veteran, hilton honors member and a senior. They provided no discount even though I was booking after 10PM. The dinner and breakfast I had was subpar and over priced. The staff again was unfriendly and seemed annoyed when I asked about the offerings for breakfast. My room was nice, but it only had one towel and they didn't even clean room or replace towels for 2nd night of my stay. Over- priced and no value - I will consider a different hotel chain in the future.

I apologize for not having the names of the wonderful employees who were working the “night shift” July 20 and 21 at this hotel, but I want to praise them for their customer service! My aunt flew into Columbia from a vacation in Italy with her very sick husband. They went straight to Lexington Medical Center, where he was admitted after hours in the ER. She arrived at this hotel around 4:30am, and the front desk employee was helpful and kind. She got her into a room quickly and efficiently. I arrived the next day, and we got back to the hotel around midnight for the 2nd night. Front desk employee and bartender were kind and accommodating, going above and beyond to ease a stressful situation for my aunt. This morning our breakfast was wonderful, and the first night’s front desk employee even checked on my uncle when she saw my aunt. Very kind employees! Great location for hospital. Nice and spacious room. Again, I hate I do not have the names of these AWESOME employees! They could have been grouchy this late at night, but they were not.
My aunt and uncle are in their late 70s/early 80s, and I truly appreciate the kindness shown to them. (I am happy to say my uncle received a pacemaker late yesterday afternoon and is doing much better!)

Another pleasant stay. April was very helpful upon check in (missed Rick - hope his recovery is going well)
We had a corner room & the blinds did not overlap so the light cam through. Ask for mid floor.
The breakfast does not look appealing. I must not be the only on that feels that way, never saw more than 2 people eating in the 4 mornings we were there. There is a Waffle House directly across the street, much better choice.

We received a discount since we came for a graduation at Fort Jackson, but still received the best quality of room and service.
The room setup was great! We had a king in one room with a door that closed plus an additional room with a couch and a second large TV on a long counter desktop. It would be great for business travel or when one person is an early riser.
Bonus: we received vouchers for made to order breakfasts for every morning of our stay. Not the usual fair although that was also available. I'm talking omelets, French toast, eggs, meat, potatoes to order, etc. The fruit was fresh. Pineapple one day, blueberries another.
The staff were friendly and helpful. They were sure to congratulate us.
We are hooked! We will be looking for other Hiltons in our travels.
Restaurant nearby:
Go to the Chinese Buffet next door. It wasn't cheap (around $20 each for dinner) but the selection was amazing! Various types of crab, fish and other seafood. Good quality dishes and desserts of all kinds, plus a sushi bar. Drink included in cost. It was called Blossom Buffet, I think.

It's less than15 minutes. But there are numerous better options than this hotel.
Our hotel is located directly off the interstate exit. If you are traveling I26 we are exit 110. You will see the hotel as soon as you come to the top of the exit. I hope this helps! Please feel free to contact us directly @ (803) 391-4000 if we can help with anything else.
