Took the family up to see my mom for her birthday and also to take me 2 year old daughter to the zoo. Overall, I would say that everything was very good. Shuttle to the zoo, so that was nice. Breakfast every morning and bar to have a few cocktails at the end of the night to unwind.

The lobby was pretty and the room was clean. Staff was shorthanded, some were just rude. Food was not great at all. Pool chlorine so bad that we could not swim in it. Pool was way to chlorinated for kids, we couldn't even breathe to stay in there and our eyes burned terribly. Food at breakfast very early at 7:00 am tasted cold and hard. Some staff members were VERY rude, there needed to be more people working bar and wait staff. Kids had no fun and so we had to listen to their misery. Horrible experience and we will NEVER go back or recommend that place to anyone!

We usually stay at this hotel when we come to Columbia. However, after this stay, we will look at other hotels instead of this one. It took 3 calls to get pillows and a blanket for our daughter's pull-out bed. This took more than one hour. When the housekeeper finally showed up with 2 pillows, she said that nobody asked her for a blanket.... she did go and get one for us. The next day we went to the zoo, which is very close to this hotel. We were gone for hours, yet our room was never made up. We went to swim in the pool, only to find it was closed until sometime on Monday. The desk clerk did inform us that another hotel about 1/2 mile away would let us swim there, but that defeated the idea of having a pool onsite. Food was decent, and wait staff was good. I think you can stay at better hotels, for less money in Columbia, than at this one. I don't know what happened, but the service was not what it used to be. We will explore what other hotels are available next time we are in Columbia. We hope that this experience was an aberration, and not the norm.

The location was convenient to the place we were going. We don't typically care for hotels this size. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was hot and I did not consider the bathroom clean.

Hotel needs a major refurbishment. I thought the chain standards were higher than this when I booked the reservation. We visited from across the country to visit a graduating solider. We arrived late with 2 very tired kids in tow (after being delayed in Chicago). The first room smelled stale and the air ducts rattled. The toilet immediately overflowed after one of the kids used it. We were promptly given another room and the next room smelled just as musty but at least the toilet was working. We had to utilize the sofa pull out which was incredibly uncomfortable and looked to have been used for at least 10 years! The front desk staff was polite but not very knowledgible of their own area. I guess they don't get many patrons asking for nearby chinese/asian restaurants very often. Included in our room rate was a daily fully cooked to order breakfast. This was an added value that is very attractive to families -- the kids could be as fussy as they wanted. The vast variety of foods were plentiful and very filling and included lots of fresh fruit. The omelets and other grill items were very good and the service staff was very attentive and pleasant. If you are looking for 4+star though...this is not the hotel for you. Checked out many different hotels in the area before arriving and after driving through the city while there. Not many choices if you are used to nicer. Good majority of the hotels in the area I would categorize as moderate to budget at best.

The Embassy Suites Greystone was easy to get to right off the interstate. The staff was very friendly from the reception desk to the restaurant. The full service breakfast included a wide variety of breakfast foods and they were very tasty! The evening reception was nice to come home to after being out in town during the day. Other meals were well prepared and reasonable and we were glad to have them available at the hotel as well.

Excellent location to children's museum and riverbanks zoo. Breakfast coffee was turned off immediately at 9:00am. I stay here every year and will continue to do so because of the convenience and cleanliness. Staff is professional, courteous and the hotel overall is wonderful.

I stayed in the Columbia Embassy Suites - Greystone on Dec. 7, 2007 en route to Charleston the next day, what a mistake. There were not one but TWO extremely loud Christmas parties going on on the first floor. I arrived after a 4+ hour drive and could not find a parking spot. It only got worse as the music was louder than a rock concert and could be heard throughout the large hotel. The staff could care less...they only said, We have two important events going on and were of no use. To make it worse there were groups of teens riding luggage carts and prank calling other rooms. They were completely out of control and should have been sent to their rooms by the staff. When the two large parties broke up at about 1am, the guests proceed out to the atrium area and were screaming in their drunken stupor. That's when I call the front desk and informed them that we could hear all of it and the teen's on the 7th floor. They only said, well what can we do the parties are just about over as if they could not get the large congregation to shut up in the atrium/lobby area. The front desk would not allow me to speak to a manager the next morning. We did not get much if any sleep and sincerely wish we did not stay there. Also the directions to the hotel on their website are about 5-10 miles off and are not even close. I have stayed at many other ES hotesl and this one is by far the worst one out there with the least caring staff I have seen. Two thumbs down.

Our suite at The Greystone Blvd Embassy Suites in Columbia, SC was just the right size for our family. The fold-out couch in the living area was perfect for the kids. Having a TV in the living area and another in the bedroom meant no fighting between the kids over what program to watch - a major plus for a tired Mom and Dad. The kids loved the lobby fountains, the indoor pool, and the glass elevators. The hotel's fitness room has great equipment. I especially liked the incline ellipticals. Everybody loved the buffet breakfast! The hotel is just up the street from Riverbanks Zoo and a short drive to downtown Columbia. Some minor issues were a large stain on the sofa cushion and one of the TV remotes wouldn't work. Overall, though, we enjoyed our stay and will likely stay there again.

The Embassy Suites was a very comfortable hotel. We had ample enough room with the suite. It was a very pleasant, polite, and beautiful place to stay. It was exactly one to two miles from the zoo. I had an exceptional stay and would like to come again.

The embassy suites is a beautiful hotel. The lobby/ reception area was very nice. Allthe staff were friendly and helpful. Loved the made to order breakfast and the bed was very comfortable. Nice indoor pool area although the water was a little cold. the only negative comment would be the noise level at night. I expected a place this nice to do a better job at mantaining the noise level.

The Embassy Suites Greystone was very comfortable. Our room was ready and available on schedule. Having a work space in the suite seperate from the sleeping area was a definite plus. The seperate vanity outside the bathroom was very helpful and much appreciated. The breakfast served was not the usual continental. The ability to have a hot breakfast combined with a restaurant on site are two items that would definitely influence our return to this hotel given our travel schedule. I would highly recommend this hotel.

We had a wonderful stay. Room service and employees were excellent. Very Close to the zoo. Beautiful hotel-needs air cond. improvement.
