Beautiful but Loud

Lovely hotel if you want to try something new. However, I found it to be rather noisy. I was in a room facing the street and it just wasn't conducive to a relaxing weekend. Also, the flags out in front of the building were loud enough to disrupt sleep in strong winds. Lots of banging noises at 7:30 am on a day I planned to sleep in. Beautiful room, but the bathroom had a rather funky smell. It reminded me of the lingering smell of bad body odor. Also, be very careful of wearing the hotel slippers on any tiled surfaces. I almost had a serious fall. The hotel staff were lovely! The welcome drink and popcorn upon check in was nice too. It was my birthday and there was a nice card and chilled wine in room. This is the kind of place you check into if you're in town to have a good time, but not if you want a peaceful restful stay.

Wonderful! Hidden gem! First off I wanna say the bed is so so comfy! I have stayed in tons of hotels and this by far is the best bed I have ever slept in. Secondly the way this place is decorated is a whole vibe. From the unique wallpaper and art work and corky touches it is just very cool. Parking is easy and is next to hotel. Several dinning options around and other little shops. Walkable. I would definitely stay here again. Also we enjoyed the robes/slippers and free drink!

It's a quirky little hotel, and I liked it a lot. The staff was lovely, and the breakfast was delicious. If there's one quibble, the beds are very high and if you're short, you may have to jump up to get on them. Otherwise, everything was perfect.

Boutique Bliss in Downtown Columbia, SC

Hotel Trundle – Columbia, SC Hotel Trundle in Columbia, SC, is an absolute gem! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warmth and genuine hospitality. The front desk staff was especially wonderful, sharing fascinating details about the building’s history and the local area, which gave us an even deeper appreciation for our stay. The common space is both inviting and inspiring—a perfect spot to relax, explore creativity, and enjoy quality time. With games and magazines available, it naturally encourages connection and togetherness. Breakfast in the morning was a highlight, offering a delightful spread that felt both comforting and indulgent. It was the perfect way to start the day! Our room was beautifully decorated with classy eclectic touches that felt both luxurious and cozy. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and every amenity was thoughtfully provided. We truly wanted—and needed—nothing more. Hotel Trundle blends charm, history, and modern comfort seamlessly. It’s more than just a place to stay—it’s an experience.

Trundle Hotel is definitely a Unicorn! What a beautiful little gem! Fabulous, warm, welcoming staff! Complimentary drink at check-in, comfy robes and complimentary private labeled bottle water in room, complimentary breakfast…I mean, who does this?! Definitely NOT the big chain hotels! All for a very reasonable price! The funky Art Deco decor was amazing! The lobby is a cozy, fun, community area you want to spend time relaxing in. We were pleasantly surprised and very impressed! Definitely will be returning on our next trip to Columbia! A Experience!

Liked the ambiance of the hotel. Negatives were inadequate water pressure in the shower and bathroom sink was too narrow, so water splashed onto clothing unless we were careful to severely reduce water flow from the faucet.
