Planters Inn

Superb location, right at the heart of historic Charleston. Lots to explore on foot. No need for a car. Trips (Boone Plantation) booked down the street at the tourist office, pick up and drop off at the hotel. Bar and food are excellent but are spoilt for choice with so many restaurants a short walk away. Staff are friendly and very helpful. We will be coming back.

It was interesting that everyday during our stay had a different price (Monday - Thursday), with parking the stay was $725/day and we did not feel we received that much value for the spend.

Greay hotel--excellent rooms (Governors Suite) great service and people Peninsula Grill is excellent very good location

We had a spacious Garden, Courtyard Suite on the second floor. The ‘garden’ was at the front door and had an outdoor wedding reception going on our first night. Fortunately we couldn’t hear it from the bedroom. The living room was large with a sofa, chair, tv and mini fridge. The bedroom was large with lots of storage. The only bedroom drawback was the lack of door. The bathroom was large with a walk in shower, good water pressure and a separate toilet closet. The only negative was the barn door which didn’t deaden should to the bedroom. It was very nice but not conducive to me sleeping in while my husband got ready to go out and take photos.

The highest praise for this gem! We chose this lovely hotel over others with similar reviews and price point, such as Hotel Bennet and Charleston Place. We selected it because we thought staying in a smaller inn would enhance the experience in a historical city, and it does also have excellent reviews. This isn’t our usual decision; we often choose Four Seasons or Montage. We made the perfect choice! The inn is gorgeous, has a perfect, walkable location just one block away from the main streets, so we enjoyed less traffic and more quiet. We chose a courtyard view room which was quiet. The room is enormous. Honestly. Huge. Two huge closets, a large chest of drawers, full living room, seating in the bedroom, gorgeous wood floors, marble bath, lovely Molton Brown bathroom products, and piles of fluffy, soft, brand new towels. The bed was also huge and comfortable with very nice quality linens. The front desk manager, Jim, was delightful. He gave us the best recommendations for dinners, a quick pastry in the morning, and places of interest to visit. He is a wealth of knowledge about the history and architecture of Charleston, too. Charleston is a lovely city with history, beauty, and wonderful dining and shopping. I sincerely believe staying at the inn is what made the trip special.
