They serve companies of every size and industry, from small teams to large organizations managing employee travel across the country.
What amenities do these hotels usually include?
Properties like CandlewoodSuites Columbia East by IHG and TownePlace Suites by Marriott Columbia offer in-room kitchens or kitchenettes, and many include amenities like on-site laundry, free parking, and wifi. Specific features vary by property, so check what each hotel offers when you book.
What makes a hotel an extended-stay property?
An extended-stay hotel offers apartment-style suites with in-room kitchens or kitchenettes, giving you the space and amenities to settle in for weeks or months. Properties like Extended Stay America Select Suites and Staybridge Suites are designed for longer visits, with more living space than a standard guest room.
How do I book multiple rooms for a team staying in Columbia?
For a stay of 9 or more guest rooms, Engine Groups handles the booking. For 8 rooms or fewer, you can search, compare, and book on Engine yourself.
How is an extended-stay hotel different from a standard hotel for a long trip?
An extended-stay hotel includes an in-room kitchen and more living space, so you can cook meals and spread out instead of eating out every day and living out of a suitcase. A standard hotel room is designed for short stays and doesn't offer those conveniences for a multi-week assignment or relocation.
