Reviews for The Charleston Place
A must stay!
Best hotel stay in a very long time. Staff always eager and happy to help and accommodate! From first door-woman to last bell-man and everyone in between! Also, its not too stuffy; if you come back from a bike ride (on their adorable bikes!), you don't feel out of place!

Beautiful place
Great place to stay, food excellent, and friendly staff. Rooms were pristine, and room had a beautiful view of bridge in background.

Love this place, but it needs some work for sure.
We have held our business meeting at this location for well over 10 years. As I understand it is under new ownership and they are remodeling. We were unable to stay last year due to the remodeling. They are nowhere near completion, except for the arrival area. The rooms are average, have not been remodeled, and are not on the floor where they placed us. In fact, the floor above us was clearly undergoing renovations. We also have our breakfast, lunch, and dinner buffets here. The food was less than expected. I believe I have had a better Hampton buffet. Disappointment is not even the word I am looking for, but it is the kindest.

Top-tier experience
Amazing hotel in a wonderful location. Every detail is taken care of. I never tip housekeeping, and I left a very large tip this time. Every time we left the room we came back and it was in better shape than when we first arrived. When they saw that I had sunglasses out on the counter, they left me a cloth to polish them Strange to think that it made such a big impact but it really did make you feel at home.

Seamless service and a very enjoyable stay
Our overall experience was very positive. From arrival, the team was attentive and helpful with luggage and made the process feel easy and welcoming. Throughout our stay, the service was warm and consistent, and it often felt like our needs were anticipated. Everything flowed smoothly, which made for a very comfortable and relaxing experience.

I traveled with my family (husband, and two children ages 2 and 4) on a Luxury Link auction package to Charleston Place in August. True good service is making travel effortless for the visitor, and Charleston Place delivered. There was no problem in bringing our children. We arrived about an hour before official check-in, but our room was ready and keys were given. Concierge had pre-printed directions to many of the sites. Finally, our Luxury Link credits for spa and dinner was automatically applied at check-out, so the check-out sheet that I received the morning of departure already had the correct amount that needed to be charged. Effortless! The Club floor included an expanded continental buffet breakfast, as well as drinks and finger foods throughout most of the day. This was very convenient and the breakfast and evening hors d'oeuvres were particularly extensive. What makes Charleston Place stand out from myriad other places to stay in Charleston - many more historic or quaint or intimate - is the amenities offered. The pool with surrounding deck and kiddie pool is a very pleasant spot. The spa treatments were wonderful and very professional. Dinner at Charleston Grill was our favorite meal of the trip. The flavors were complex and fresh - this is not your typical fried and heavy Southern cuisine. I can see Charleston Place appealing to business travelers, couples needing pampering, families with older children, and yes, families with young children. All in all, a service-oriented hotel in a wonderful location with superior amenities and appealing to many different types of travelers.
