Columbia hotel check-in age guide

0 reviewed Columbia hotels list a minimum check-in age of 18 or lower and 2 list 21 or older. Marriott Columbia on Hampton Street and Courtyard Columbia Downtown at USC on Assembly Street serve different parts of central Columbia. If you are visiting the university, match the campus building or event address to your chosen hotel; a university-related name does not waive a hotel's check-in age. These are two exact Columbia, South Carolina properties, not airport-area coverage or a city-wide age rule. Compare their recorded ages below and confirm accepted ID and arrival payment separately.

These reviewed properties are a starting sample, not every hotel in the city. The age-18 result below uses the current recorded policy; ID and payment still need their own checks.

Three separate checks to make with the hotel

1. Age: give your age on arrival and the exact property address. Ask about any accompanying-adult requirement. Do not infer an exception from a prepaid booking.
2. ID: ask which current documents the arriving guest must show. An unstated requirement is not permission to arrive without ID.
3. Payment: ask about physical and debit cards, the cardholder's presence, and the incidental authorization amount, currency, basis and release timing. General cash or credit-card acceptance does not answer these questions.

Keep the property's written reply with your reservation. See our ID checklist and evidence method.

Use the age you will be on arrival. We check minimum ages, not room availability.
