Family Trip
Amazing hotel with outstanding staff and service! The staff provided all information we needed and suggested great, interesting places to visit since it was our first time in Charleston. We also used the bikes that are available for a nice morning stroll.
Jim is a true gentlemen, it was a blast having him assist us!
The hotel is definitely worth it!

A Welcome Island in Charleston
As close to the ideal hotel room and service to go with it as there is in Charleston. The butlers that attend to your needs are a unique feature that matters to the overall stay. The room is well appointed, quiet and dark yet with a view over the busy parts of the city. A welcome island in Charleston.

This is a wonderful property with outstanding service. The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. The room was very attractive and comfortable as was the hotel lounge. My review is 4 vs 5 star as there is not restaurant on site and even though breakfast is included in the room rate, it’s not up to the same quality as the rest of the hotel.
