• For out-of-town visitors, we have arranged for several discounted room rates with local hotels listed below. We have tried to find our applicants quality accommodations at reasonable rates.  BEFORE you try to find the cheapest rate on-line, bear in mind that these offers usually include free parking, free internet, and free breakfast.  Some will provide transfers to and from the airport as well as to and from Palmetto Health for your interview.  All are located near Palmetto Health and close to great dining.  Once you factor in these costs, it is often cheaper (and much nicer) to utilize one of these discounted packages.
• Each offer is based on Palmetto Health providing a $30 subsidy for your first night's stay in Columbia. The rate quoted on each establishment's website WILL NOT show this rate.  In other words, if the on-line rate is $100, Palmetto Health will pay for $30 of your stay, so you will pay $70.  If you have questions, PLEASE ASK.  Call Sherry Allen at 803-434-3790 or e-mail her at sherry.allen@palmettohealth.org for help with your lodging.
• Staybridge Suites is offering a reduced rate of $64 for your first night's stay.  This business hotel is located within 1.5 miles of the hospital and very close to the Vista with lots of restaurants and shopping.  Free parking and internet access as well as breakfast are included in the price.  You can call for reservations at 877-834-3613.  Please tell them you are with Palmetto Health to secure the reduced rate for you first night's stay.  This offer is good for one night's stay only.  Additional nights will cost $94 per night.
• For a more personal experience, the 1425 Inn is a very comfortable bed & breakfast less than one mile from the hospital.  In addition to a free breakfast, the owners will provide free round-trip transportation to-and-from the Columbia Metropolitan Airport and Palmetto Health Richland for your interview.  If you are driving to Columbia, parking is free.  Call David or Karen Brown at the Inn at 803-252-7225 and mention you are interviewing with our program to receive this special package for $80 for your first night's say. This offer is good for one night's stay only.  Additional nights will cost $110 per night.  
• The Hilton Hotel Columbia Center in Vista is offering $79 per night or $129 for an upgraded King Junior Suite.  This includes non-smoking King or two Queen beds with free internet, fitness center, pool, free parking, complimentary breakfast in the heart of the city's upscale shopping and restarurant district.   This offer is good for one night's stay only.  Additional nights will cost $109 per night or $159 for a King Junior Suite.  When calling or booking a reservation on-line, please provide the group discount code: L-EMED.  If you have any questions, please contact our office at 803-434-3790 for assistance.
