At the intersection of kindness and comfort, you’ll find the exquisite Hotel Trundle, a quintessentially Columbia retreat thanks to the support of our incredible local artists, craftspeople, and business owners combined with the perfect location centered in the heart of the Main Street District. Wrapped in color, creativity, and charm, our 41-room jewel resides inside of three historic buildings combined into one – the first of its kind in all of Downtown Columbia. We have rewritten the rules of Southern Hospitality with a unique blend of curated guest experiences and services, good old fashion thoughtfulness, and an eclectic, 20s-era Art Deco style. Our Story From the moment Marcus and Rita first entered the historic Western Auto building, they knew they had uncovered an extraordinary opportunity. What started out as a once-in-a-lifetime chance to renovate three historic buildings into a one-of-a-kind boutique hotel, has since become a dream come true. At Hotel Trundle, Marcus and Rita’s love for Columbia, SC shines through everywhere. It was important for them to foster the voice of the talented array of local artists, craftspeople, restaurants, and small business owners that make up the growing community. From the custom-made mattresses and walnut beds to the fresh coffee, food, and libations, everything is as locally sourced as they could make it. With this practice, they’ve created a network of neighbors who are working together to showcase their city. They live and breathe Columbia, South Carolina.
