“Old and musky motel”

Reviewed 20 March 2013 via mobile

This place is a old dump that needs to be remodeled. The TV etc is old but did fine the bed to be ok. Breakfast was worthless and they charge $5.95 to get an upgrade. What a joke when they offer nothing to begin with. Do yourself a favor and find another place. This joint has cheap and petty written... More

“Stayed There Twice - No Problem Other Than...”

The restaurant and lounge. BOTH times I have stayed there, they ran out of many types of beer in the bar. Other than their lack of bar inventory management, it is a nice place. The food is good and affordable as well. And the price is great - I paid $90 a night for a large two room suite. Also,... More

“Nice hotel in Columbia, SC”

Reviewed 5 October 2012

I was checked in by Suzanne who was pleasant, knowledgable and helpful. The highlight of my stay was the magnificent towels. Very plush, not the terry-cardboard I've been experiencing at most hotels. The only disappointment was the out-of-order ice machine that required me to either walk to the other end of the building or go to the second floor.

I am delighted that you have enjoyed your stay with us, and I want to thank you for your very kind words. I will make sure to share your comments with my associates and look forward to welcome you again at our hotel, in the near future. As far as the ice machines, I apologize for any inconvenience the out... More

“Would not recommend this Clarion”

Decided to try this Clarion on a business trip to Columbia. This hotel has been operated under several brands for the past 20+ years. Appears it has deteriorated to the point where it is on the low end of my ratings schedule. Property appears to be well-maintained from the outside, but the rooms are not in good shape. First two...

I thank you for your comments and please accept my apologies for having disappointed you. The Clarion Inn was a full service Holiday Inn from 1974-2010. In 2010 Holiday Inn was looking to recreate the look of their hotels by excluding their exterior corridor hotels. In 2010 we rebranded to a full service Clarion Inn. At that time, the rebrand...
