The Westin Poinsett, Greenville
If you’re traveling from out-of-town, we hope you will stay with us at the historic Westin Poinsett Hotel, located in the heart of downtown Greenville! Not only is the Poinsett unmatched for elegance and hospitality, but its grand Gold Ballroom is where the ceremony and reception will be held. The best that downtown Greenville has to offer is just footsteps from the lobby. Explore one of the “best small cities in the US” according to Conde Nast Traveler. We have a block of rooms at the discounted rate of $179 per night for Friday, July 12 and Saturday, July 13. Click here to book directly online or call (864) 421-9700 and ask to reserve in the Gilmer Passow wedding block.
Arrival by Air
For those of you flying, the Greenville-Spartanburg International Airport is only 13 miles from downtown Greenville. No need to rent a car as both Uber and Lyft are available. Additionally, the Westin Poinsett offers complimentary airport shuttle service. Please schedule in advance by calling 864-421-9700.
Arrival by Car
For those of you driving, park in the Poinsett Garage located just behind the Westin Poinsett or valet your car with the hotel.
Getting Around
Downtown Greenville is a very walkable city. All of the wedding events will be held at the Westin Poinsett or within a half-mile radius, and there are tons of restaurants, shops, and attractions in between! If you do find that your feet need a break, here are a few options other than Uber or Lyft:
Westin Poinsett complimentary golf cart shuttle - ask for service in the lower hotel lobby
Free Downtown Trolley - look for the red and blue open-air trolleys; the closest stop is just outside of the hotel on Main Street in front of the Porcellino Statue
BCycle - use your phone to rent and return a shared electric bike from any BCycle station; there’s one at the corner of W. Court and Main near the Greenville Visitor Center
Greenville Bike Taxi - call (864) 293-3065 to be whisked away in a pedicab for two!
Alternative Accommodations
While we highly recommend the Westin Poinsett, there are other hotels in downtown Greenville. These are within walking distance of the wedding:
Courtyard by Marriott Greenville Downtown
SpringHill Suites by Marriott Greenville Downtown
Residence Inn by Marriott Greenville Downtown
AC Hotel by Marriott Greenville
Hyatt Place Greenville Downtown
Paris Mountain State Park
For those interested in camping, we recommend Paris Mountain State Park. This beautiful campground is a popular summer destination and only 7 miles from downtown Greenville. The campsite has paved sites with partial hookups, dump station, garbage, and free firewood. The roads leading to the campsite are narrow and winding and may be difficult to travel on with a trailer larger than 26 feet. Please refer to the website to set reservations.
