My stay at the French Quarter Inn was wonderful from start to finish. The best part was the location—it's perfectly situated within walking distance of so many of Charleston's best restaurants, shops, and historic sights, making it incredibly easy to explore the city. Be sure to rent a bike to explore! One of my favorite amenities was the peaceful courtyard patio, where the complimentary wine and cheese each evening created such a relaxing atmosphere after a day of sightseeing. It was the perfect place to unwind. The bed was exceptionally comfortable, and I especially appreciated the hotel's pillow menu. Being able to choose the type of pillow that suited my preferences was a thoughtful touch that made for an even better night's sleep. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend the French Quarter Inn to anyone looking for a comfortable, relaxing, and conveniently located hotel in Charleston.

The French Quarter Inn is a charming hotel right in the heart of Charleston, near so many restaurants, sites, activities and the market. You don't need a car as many things are right nearby though there is always Uber and Lyft. The staff showed care in helping us have great tours and meals. When our plans changed one day, the concierge, Kim, made excellent alternative suggestions to us which included our lunching at a delicious restaurant on the water and visiting a nearby plantation. The staff also eagerly called up sites for bookings and reservations. The evening milk and cookies were a special treat, making us feel at home. Each morning, we enjoyed having our healthy breakfast outdoors on the patio. We all appreciated the careful attention to detail that each and every staff member offered which made us feel special. Extra shout outs to Kimberly and to Bob who also provided us with ideas. Finally, we chatted with other guests at the hotel and everyone was quite friendly.

Our family absolutely loved our stay at the French Quarter Inn! From the moment we arrived, the staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating, making us feel right at home. The room was super clean and comfortable, but what really blew us away was how thoughtful everything was. It feels like the staff has anticipated every single detail in advance to make your stay effortless and special. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and can't wait to come back! Perfectly located in the city. Easy to walking distance to everything. We also loved borrowing the bikes to tour the city.

I am a former chef and am now a catering director at a private country club. Being extremely picky and wanting the best possible accommodations and food - we were nothing but happy with French Quarter Inn!

My wife and I stayed at the French Quarter Inn on a Monday and Tuesday evening. As our second visit to Charleston, we wanted to enjoy the Battery area history and restaurants for a couple days. French Quarter Inn was fantastic! The staff really set the stage for a memorable and rejuvenating visit. Charleston really is a unique and wonderful city, and I highly recommend the French Quarter Inn for helping us take a little of Charleston with us.
