TV with garbled channel connection
Tim T.

The problem list is long for a one night stay. Requested early arrival and foam pillows days before arrival. Waited in the lobby for over 2 hours on arrival, due to full capacity the prior day and the pillow request (per front desk staff that just didn't care to help). In the room, the closet door literally fell off the hinges when I opened it. Then the bedroom TV wouldn't clearly connect to any channels. Then the pillows were all feather (wife is allergic to them) anyway. Then no manager was available to resolve issues. Haven't checked out yet, so the list could grow.

Would you eat this?     It tasted worse than it looks. Threw out. $38.00!!!

Beautiful hotel, we had a suite and it was perfection. spacious, well designed, very, very restful. Crisp linens, very clean, various types of perfect lighting, indirect ambient lighting behind headboard was very cool! The suites are in another tower, and the directions to get there were rather vague. Luckily we found it, but they need to provide a map. The biggest drawback is Augustino Restaurant's food, and it is the only option. .....Long day, ordered room service, 1.5 hrs to get inedible food. Ordered pasta shells stuffed with ricotta and tomato sauce. Tasted like dense pasta dough. (Did not detect ricotta cheese at all, think they forgot it.) There was 1 teaspoon of sauce. Kid you not. Added salmon, ordered medium, came cooked to a dried out Blackened inedible piece of fish. Worse pasta of my life. Says a lot about a restaurant if they can't even prepare a simple pasta. So 5 stars to the hotel, and 5 NEGATIVE stars to restaurant. They need to re-think that place, as all guests are stuck with it.

Gross shower

This is an old hotel. The rooms smell like old musty carpet. The bathroom is outdated and shows wear. This place needs a renovation. You can hear everything in the room including your neighbors conversations. Location is convenient walking distance to downtown. On-site restaurant food sucks but bar staff are really nice.

1. I was never acknowledged or thanked for being a Titanium member. 2. Bedding I asked for was placed outside my door (no dnd was on the door). So instead of bringing them in they were placed with no bag around them on the dirty carpeted floor on the side of my door. 3. We were then brought up a flammable blanket with holes in it. 4. The second day, with my dnd sign on the door I mentioned to the cleaning person, (Rashonda Westin) to discontinue placing signs on my door to remind me I can have cleaning...she stated she will do it again. Our conversation got heated...She went to get her manager and became more aggressive. Told me I had the right one...etc... 5. The front desk manager called my room and was very argumentative....told me what happened...did not allow me to speak. I received a response from Jamie Allen (manager) stating basically nothing but the generic we can use this for further development.

I came to this hotel for a wedding in the area. Check-in was easy. The front desk did a great job of directing me where to park and made sure I had a room available for early check-in (which I had requested a couple days prior). My room was nice. The bathroom was a bit outdated and didn't seem fully clean. I happened to see the housekeeper in the hall so she cleaned my bathroom for me. The hotel is huge so there was a lot of walking but I was able to get my bearings pretty quickly. I would come back to this hotel. However, I would hope that the bathroom is a bit more on point. On top of it not being as clean, there was no robe or slippers in my room, plus I had two shampoos and no body wash. All minor things but this just seems to be a place where the hotel is slipping.

Friendly staff and fast check in process. Next to the river and the location is near downtown north Augusta. The building is dated but the rooms are clean.

Stainless shower that's been updated.

3.75 stars. The Augusta Marriott is comfortable and convenient, but it's a bit tired and could use a minor facelift. Located right on the waterfront, the August Marriott has a premiere location in downtown Augusta. It's just a few short blocks from Broadway and all the little restaurants and bars, and access to the Riverwalk is literally right out the front door. The lobby and bar areas are warm and welcoming, with a Starbucks right off the main area. The bartenders are great, and they serve food until 10pm. The meatballs were off-the-hook, and the Marriott burger is big and tasty. We did not visit the hotel's Italian restaurant this time, but if the meatballs are any indication of the rest of their food, then Augustino's is a decent spot. Parking is in a garage that has the tightest parking spots on the planet. Be careful, and good luck! The river view from room (suite) 629 is great. Our upgraded suite was comfortable, for sure, but there things that kinda needed attention. Like the thermostat that was missing digits. Try setting a temp when you are not sure of the first number... Also, the WC had a weird mish mosh of towel hangars - some metal, some plastic. The original door brass handles were on some doors, while other knobs and handles were in brushed stainless. It looks like some upgrades have taken place while some items are still the legacy hardware. An occasional table in the room had def seen some better days. As a Marriott fan with Lifetime Titanium Elite status, all of these items are not and should not be representative of the Marriott brand. Unless you're taking your shower during the high-use morning hours expect a luke-warm (at best) shower. On this most recent visit housekeeping changed out our towels but did not perform any other services. In a post-covid world that sometimes is the norm, but when I called downstairs for a clarification the front desk admitted that this hotel has full daily service, and that they just dropped the ball. We'd come back, but the rooms in this hotel could use a bit of an upgrade.

Wasp got through the hole in the window, spider etc.

Management here seems incompetent. From customer service to guest services the structure lacks organization. I wouldn't want to not recognize some of the staff cause there were a couple that stood out but leadership is few far and between. I would recommend my client choose a better location befor a return.

Went to attend an MLK Breakfast. The ballroom where it was held looks like it could hold 500 people EASY! The food line moved pretty quickly and food stations rarely went empty for long. They were replenished pretty quickly. While the food process went quickly, the program itself did not. But that's not of the hotel's doing. I left early due to another community service project.

I stayed here and we had our wedding reception and events here. The entire experience was great. The staff are responsive, kind, and very understanding of your needs. The food is delicious and the meetings and banquet halls are ideal for any occasion--large or small. You will not be disappointed. The location is stellar and close all of that downtown has to offer. It would be a great host hotel for your need. I believe they pour so much into their event planning services that the rooms can updating to bring it to boutique hotel/five-star status. It is not there yet but is at least 3.5 to 5 starts. It is likely the best hotel in Augusta due to its charm and decor but Hyatt House up the street and around the corner may be more modern. I've gone here for several events while growing up in Augusta and the Marriott has always offered an elegant experience.

The first thing I notice walking in to this hotel is the lobby. It's definitely stunning. South side, country style stunning. That stair case wins. I also love the fact that it's located right by the river walk. Parks and Recreational spots like these are super fashionable now. Specially the fact that I love to go out for a nice run. Anyways, the rooms are really nice. Very modern,, theres a chase and a table. Big giant dresser to put my things in. The TV is the best part,,, smart tv that you can input your account in if you want to watch. Best thing about it is that HBOgo is free. I got to catch up on my Westworld during my down time. The bed was super comfy, the bathroom was super relaxing and my stay was superb. I would totally love to come back here and stay again. Plus restaurants and bars are just at striking distance from this hotel. Thank you so much for reading my review. I hope this helps with your decision making experience. Enjoy your awesome yelptastic day!

Planning a wedding during this pandemic has been extremely stressful. When we researched Enterprise Mills Event, we were extremely excited for our tour and hopeful we found our wedding venue. Unfortunately, the pleasant individual via email was not who we met in person. Heather did not respect us enough to greet us. She did not take the time to introduce herself to us. She did not even bother to ask for our names. When we entered the building we were addressed with " how many people are you expecting?" I was not prepared for us to experience that level of degrading and unprofessional service. She thought that little of us to not be courteous and professional but wanted to ask how long we were engaged. She appeared to be uninterested in showing us the venue space as if she did not want our business. We were informed the rental hours are 5 hours for decorations and 4 hours for the event. When my fiancé asked the cost for additional hours. She was extremely dismissive and made it known that the bartender rate would be higher. She did not provide us with the additional fees by fiancé was asking for. The level of service from Heather Bowen was extremely disappointing and insulting. We were not treated with the respect and professionalism we deserve. It could have been due to her personal biases/prejudices or just her true personality towards everyone. However, she is a poor representation for this organization. I am a registered nurse, and my fiancé and I both work for the federal government. We both know the importance of professionalism and respecting individuals. Our veterans are the reason we are employed. My fiancé is also a veteran and proudly served our country. Our wedding planner is fully aware of the situation. I can assure you; this type of poor service does negatively impact businesses.

But, I specifically want to shout out Coach Matt for his swimming instruction. I'm an adult and learned to swim as a child. However, I had some negative experiences with water in later years and wanted to conquer that and learn how to swim laps. Matt has been an amazing teacher; very patient, kind, and explains things in a way that make sense to my brain. It's clear he has a lot of knowledge and his demeanor put me at ease--both to try conquering my apprehensions about swimming and also to ask any question I wanted. I often got to my lessons early and got to see Matt working with other students, both children and adults. It's clear others also appreciate working with him. One mother told me her daughter was afraid to put her head under water before Coach Matt, and we watched as her daughter now leapt into the deep end with a smile on her face! I was only in Augusta for a few months, but if I return, I will definitely be trying to get a few more lessons in with Matt.

This is one of Augusta's most rewarding museums, a place that manages to tell a 12,000‑year story…read morewithout ever feeling overwhelming. The Augusta Museum of History is the city's oldest historical institution, founded in 1937 and now the only accredited museum in the Central Savannah River Area, which gives it a level of curatorial depth you can feel as you move from room to room. The museum's signature exhibition, Augusta's Story, begins with the region's earliest Indigenous cultures, including artifacts from the Stallings Island people, and then moves through the Colonial Era, the antebellum period, the Civil War, and the city's twentieth century reinventions. You see everything from slave‑made pottery to a 12‑pounder bronze Napoleon cannon tube and an 1869 steam fire engine tied to the devastating 1916 fire that reshaped parts of the city. It's a rare chance to see Augusta's full arc laid out in a way that feels comprehensive. The museum also excels at capturing the city's cultural identity. The James Brown gallery is a highlight, celebrating the life and global influence of the "Godfather of Soul" with photographs, stage pieces, and biographical context that show how deeply he shaped Augusta's modern identity. Several media options to watch him performing and to hear other leading figures discuss his influence. The golf and Masters Tournament section offers a thoughtful look at how the sport became intertwined with the city's reputation, and the medical history exhibit includes an impressive wall of antique medicine bottles that gives you a sense of how local healthcare evolved over generations. One of the most enjoyable parts of the visit is the Transportation Corridor, which brings Augusta's mobility story to life with a 1914 steam locomotive, a 1917 steam trolley, a reconstructed 1930s gas station, and a range of early vehicles. Walking through the restored streetcar and stepping into the rail car for photos adds a tactile, playful element that balances the more traditional exhibits. Upstairs, the museum's radio history exhibit traces the rise of WBBQ, one of Augusta's most influential stations, including a "then and now" section installed for its 60th anniversary. There are also exhibits on local law enforcement and firefighting, as well as a gallery of regional legends that highlights entertainers, athletes, writers, and other notable Augustans. The entire museum is comfortably explored in about two hours, which makes it an easy and rewarding stop whether you're spending a full day downtown or pairing it with the Morris Museum of Art or the Riverwalk. It's the kind of place that leaves you with a clearer sense of Augusta's character, from its earliest settlements to the voices and industries that shaped the city you see today. Don't miss it.
