Other Accommodations

There are a number of hotels in the area, some of which may offer Columbia University rates. In addition, a great way to explore New York City is to stay in a new neighborhood. We recommend using Columbia Housing Alternative Accommodations, the Columbia Travel Portal, and Columbia Admissions Accommodations as starting places for your hotel search.
