About this hotel
The Lantern Hotel Columbia positions you well for game day, offering the practicalities fans need.

The hotel’s bar and restaurant provide a relaxed spot for pre-game meals or post-match debriefs, and the fitness center is there for those who like to stay active.

Our take
This hotel is a solid choice for fans who prioritize convenience, especially those traveling by car or with pets. The parking and transport links simplify game day logistics, allowing you to focus on the event. While not within walking distance of Williams-Brice Stadium, its amenities like the bar and restaurant make it a comfortable hub. It's less suited for those who want to walk directly to the stadium, but perfect for those who prefer to drive and then use public transport, or who appreciate a more central location with easy access to the city's other attractions.
- Utilize the hotel's parking and then take public transport to Williams-Brice Stadium to avoid game-day traffic.
- Check the public transport schedule in advance for direct routes to the stadium on event days.
- If you're bringing a pet, confirm the pet policy and any associated fees when booking your stay.
