This hotel is on the outskirts of the historic district. If you plan on checking out a lot of shopping or the historic homes - then you would want to stay closer to downtown. We drove and then parked to see a lot of things and to dine each night. This parking cost started to add up when you went down to explore the city, then came back downtown for dinner. The hotel is very clean, all staff was very helpful and nice. The concierge sent us on a trip to the Lighthouse near Jolly Beach that no books even mentioned it was available. Although we only asked his opinion for this one event, he had a lot of sightseeing tips/trips that he could recommend so use him. Note; Parking at hotel is an additional cost. If you do one thing, take a carriage ride. The drivers are very informative and can point out different things that you may want to get a closer look at while you stay in Charleston. Overall it was a great experience.
Charleston was a great romantic getaway. This hotel was the most reasonable in the "Historic District", with decent reviews that we could find. We found it expensive pretty expensive for what you get, but you are paying for the location "Historic District", not the hotel. Trust me, if you age going to see Charleston, you want to stay in the historic district. The hotel was very clean, staff VERY Friendly and helpful, the hotel had all the ammenities that we wanted, it just wasn't new or recently updated, which I am used to for this price. We paid extra for a balcony room on the 6th floor. The room was spacious, but the balcony was kind of a waste. There are two plastic chairs on the balcony (which is all that can fit), and there really isn't much of a view. Save the balcony upcharge.
Checked in to the hotel and reception was good. The hotel has a complimentary concierge K M who was very helpful as to where to go and what to do. K's writing could be improved though when writing out iteneray for the stay. K had the schedules and contacts at his fingertips. The beds s**k as they were very firm and squeaked when getting into and out of bed. Pillows were very small and too soft. The pillows were smaller than standard size. The cost of the hotel was very expensive as my room was nearly 300 per night on Friday and Saturday night. Hotel parking is limited as overflow had to park in the church lot across the street and had to be moved by 8:30 AM on Sunday morning. Rooms were ordinary. Air conditioning temperature control was poor. Either the room was too hot or too cold. I did see uniformed policeman going to one of the rooms on the 4th floor during my stay. My 6th floor room was not scenic as it overlooked a roof top and parking lot and several other buildings. TV was very small. I would expect a flat screen for the price.
Our family of 5 stayed for 4 nights. The location is right in downtown Charleston within walking distance to shopping and historic destinations. We found the rooms very clean and comfortable. The staff was very helpful. We enjoyed our stay very much, and would recommend it to other travelers.
This was our first trip to Charleston, but it will not be our last! This hotel was an excellent jumping off point due to its fairly convenient location and very helpful, friendly staff. The concierges made excellent suggestions for sightseeing and dining. As mentioned in other reviews, we enjoyed dining at Coast (great seafood at reasonable prices), as well as at Slightly North of Broad (delicious!) and 39 Rue St. Jean (nice bistro). Hyman's is another very good seafood restaurant.The concierge recommended Tommy Dew's history tour which was a high point of our trip! Tommy is passionate about his subject and a very interesting guide.We enjoyed the breakfast buffet daily. There is a choice of full (11.95) or continental(5.95). We found the food to be very good and the service great. ALL the employees we encountered were gracious and charming, from the maids to the front desk staff. On arrival our room was not yet ready because it was only 11AM. The young lady at the desk offered to store our luggage so we could go have lunch and begin sightseeing. She then called our cell phone to let us know when our room was ready. Our return flight was an evening one, so we had the same problem in reverse. Again our luggage was stored securely and we enjoyed a last day in Charleston unencumbered.We found our room to be very nice, very clean and comfortable. We would be happy to stay at this Holiday Inn again!
This motel is easy to find from I-26 or Hwy 17. You can pretty much walk to anything in the historic district, even the battery. Charleston is a walking city, so bring good shoes! The market is about a 15 min. walk and with the motel's location right between Meeting and King Sts., it's easy to find whatever you want. Front desk, housekeeping and concierge staff all extremely friendly. Rooms are a little outdated, but very clean. The memory foam mattress and very fluffy pillows made for a great night's sleep. Very quiet...no noise from adjoining rooms. The breakfast buffet and "newspaper at your door" mentioned by previous poster no longer exists. Complimentary USA Today is available at the front desk, but the Charleston Post & Courier is not free. Nor is the continental breakfast. The "hot breakfast buffet" was not available the weekend we stayed because the motel was not full enough, so we paid 5.95 for cold danish, coffee and fruit. Go elsewhere for breakfast (or any other meals, for that matter). There is plentiful on-site parking (some of it covered), but it costs 10/day. There is a covered front porch with rocking chairs that spans the entire front of the motel and it was so nice to sit out there in the evening and watch the traffic and people go by. If you smoke, please note that as of July 2007, all restaurants and bars are now smoke free. All establishments have some sort of outdoor provision for smokers. Some bars will let you take your beverage outside while smoking, others won't.
