This has become my favorite hotel in Charleston, and every visit reminds me why. From the moment you arrive, the staff is consistently kind, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. They have a way of making you feel less like a guest and more like you’ve come home. The décor strikes the perfect balance — elegant yet comfortable, warm and inviting without feeling overdone. It’s the kind of place where you can truly relax and settle in while still enjoying the charm and beauty Charleston is known for. During this most recent stay, the cost was honestly astronomical — I’m assuming due to Valentine’s Day and SEWE — and that was the only downside to an otherwise wonderful visit. Even so, the hospitality and overall experience continue to make this a place I love returning to, and it’s still the first hotel I recommend when friends ask where to stay in Charleston.

Great location, room and service. Upgrade to the courtyard garden suite, it is worth it. Great dinner at the Peninsula Grill.

Great location and quaint historic hotel! The staff was very helpful. The Peninsula Grill is a great dining experience and definitely order the Ultimate Coconut Cake!

Every staff at the hotel were very welcoming and supportive. Not to mention the beautiful architecture and great location. Room was kept very clean and comfortable. Highly recommend this place. I wish I went there with my loved ones(it was a business trip).

I have stayed at the Planters Inn before and this time was no different - it is a wonderful place! The staff are friendly and accommodating. Special thanks to the Manager Coleen who upgraded my room, to Cole, Pam and Korey, the super bartender. The food is delicious. The friends I was visiting claim that the Planters grits are some of the best they have had in Charleston. So are the breakfast omelets and biscuits. The location is superb, you can walk everywhere. I look forward to another stay before long!

Our visit to the Planters Inn last week was superb, as always. Thanks, Steve Boyd, for taking such good care of us when we arrived so early in the morning. Thanks, too, to everyone at the inn for making us feel at home. We're already looking forward to our next visit!
