HarbourView Inn

We absolutely loved the Harbourview Inn. The room was very spacious with a large bathroom and walk in shower. Nice bedding, nice fixtures in the room. I think our favorite things were some of the extras like the evening wine and cheese reception, milk & cookies around and breakfast. For breakfast, each day you fill out a menu and choose a time for delivery to your room (or I believe to the lobby). There were a variety of breads, bagel, croissants, quiches, juices, cereals, fruits, coffee and tea, etc. Every evening from 5-6p there was a wine and cheese reception with a variety of wines, cheeses, meats (salami, prosciutto….) and fruits. Perhaps our favorite was the Milk and Cookies from 9-10p. Warm cookies (chocolate chip, sugar, chocolate-chocolate chip….) and really cold milk. Delicious. We thought this was the cutest touch. All day there was ice tea, lemonade and a flavored water available. I think there was coffee and tea too (I think this was all day, but I am not positive). The location is perfect for a first timers like we were. Beautiful view of the harbor, directly across the street from Waterfront Park - 2 minute walk to the Pineapple Fountain. Maybe 3-5 minutes from Rainbow Row, 5-10 to the Charleston City Market. A lot of the well-known restaurants were within a 5 minute walk too (Magnolia, SNOB, High Cotton, Ruby Sunshine, Revival). We loved walking around and seeing all the beautiful nearby houses and the waterfront. Valet was always really fast. Charleston is a wonderful city, very clean, very friendly. The Harbourview Inn will make your stay even better. I can’t wait to return. Note - the website mentions the construction across the street. I appreciated that this was pointed out, but honestly, we saw construction but couldn’t hear it from the room (3rd floor) and barely noticed it when outside.

We love staying at the HarbourView Inn in Charleston, SC. The staff is friendly and very helpful especially the front desk staff. There is no restaurant on site but who needs one with so many fabulous places within walking distance. Included in the room rate is breakfast delivered to your room, a daily wine and cheese reception and warm cookies at night. Our home away from home while we are in Charleston.

We stayed at the HarbourView February 22-24 . We were originally only booked for one night, but with the Blizzard of 2026 slamming into the exact coast, our flight home was cancelled and we needed to stay another night. When I called to extend our stay the front desk worked its magic and was able to keep us it the same room for the extra night. When we checked in, Jonathan at the front desk welcomed us and not only apologized for the elevator being out of service ( we were in the 4th floor), but he comped our valet parking. When he found out it was my husband’s birthday, he then gave us a complimentary bottle of wine. When we walked into our beautiful room, complete with fireplace and balcony, there was a bottle of champagne chilling in an ice bucket! The breakfast was wonderful, with many options and afternoon cocktails very relaxing. The late night cookies and milk were a perfect end to each day. Every staff member we encountered was pleasant and offered help if needed. We will definitely stay here again!

A belated thank you to the staff at the HarbourView Inn for their wonderful customer service. I recently brought a small group to Charleston for a culinary tour. The front desk team was flexible and attentive as I arranged the rooms months before the trip and took care of all the details during our stay. A special shout out to Melony, Jodi, Jonathan, and Douglas! The charming hotel rooms were spacious, comfy and sparkling clean. And the historic harbor location can't be beat. I would definitely stay here again.

We loved our experience at the HarbourView Inn. Beautiful spot with amazing views from the pleasant staff, wonderful breakfast to wine and charcuterie spread at 5pm each night to the milk and cookies in the evening we were treated wonderfully! Highly recommend!
