Belmond Charleston Place

I was not kind to this wonderful hotel after my first trip. I am happy to write that during this stay it looked up to all my original expectations and beyond. You cannot find a better location. The rooms are spacious and well appointed. Staff is friendly and helpful.

I was in Charleston for a group meeting, and the Belmond was our group hotel. This is a very nice hotel that is in a great location. You walk right out the back door and you are on Meeting street. It is a short walk to the water, and not too far from the wonderful historic homes. The rooms were great, the indoor pool out area outside the pool were great, and the services they provided for our group meetings were great. I definitely recommend staying at this hotel if in Charleston.

This is a beautiful hotel located in the heart of the city. A short walk to the Charleston Visitor Center where the friendliest tourist guides can be found. The hotel staff is exceptionally friendly and helpful. The rooms are very well maintained and the maid service is as good as I have ever encountered. One of the city's main attractions is the market. This is several blocks long and is the marketplace for local vendors to sell their wares. It is located across the street from the hotel. Horse drawn carriage rides are available just two block away and any tour you might want to take is available from the visitor center. There are restaurants, bars and shops within the hotel complex.

The Belmond is located in a good downtown South area walkable to shopping and restaurants. It is a short bike ride to the Battery area. The Belmond has a rooftop pool which is open air - meaning that it is partially covered but with open walls. It also has tables on the perimeter. I would recommend other rooftops in town for socializing or "hanging out." This one seems to go with the spa which is located on the same floor. A few reasons for my 3.5 star rating - positives - good location, good service (valet, front desk etc), lobby is very nice and gives the luxury vibe, beds are very comfortable, bathrooms are luxurious. Not as positives - coffee makers are not in room and coffee is for purchase in the lobby...wish it had been made available which is usually standard for a 4+ star hotel, The views from the hotel rooftop and many rooms are building views, the room itself was on the smaller side, the bathroom wasn't completely clean and housekeeping was called - they did come right away, the price per night here seems high in relation to other nearby hotels although it seems to be warranted by the lobby and service. Overall I would say this is a nice place to stay but there are many other places to stay that could be just as good or not better for the price.

Traveled here with my 8 month old grandson and daughter who was there on business. What made this hotel so perfect was the location. It was across the street from the City Market which is an open air market that spans about 4 blocks. What was most enjoyable was my ability to stroll with my grandson to so many historic sites over several days. The hotel was very nice. We ate at a couple of the restaurants which were just OK. My daughter, who scheduled her event here, was pleased with the staff and the food that was provided. The room we had was a little cramped with two queens and a baby crib. It also had a mini fridge and a coffeemaker. But beds were comfy and the room was clean. Would recommend staying here.
