My wife and I spent four days in Charleston, and after plenty of research, we chose to stay at The Spectator Hotel—safe to say, we found a winner. It strikes a perfect balance between modern style and classic Southern charm. Beyond that, the location is excellent, the room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, and the staff offered great local insights. To top it off, the bar is a perfect spot to unwind after a long day of exploring Charleston’s alleyways and incredible restaurants. So do yourself a favor if you’re headed to Charleston: take advantage of The Spectator Hotel.

We had the pleasure of staying at the Spectator Hotel and from the moment we checked in, we were greeted with a warm welcome and a lovely drink. Our guest room was beautiful, the daily breakfast was fantastic, and the evening nightcaps were the perfect end to the day. We enjoyed the bar area and our bartenders Rose and Anna were lovely and provided wonderful conversation. Our Butler Will was also fantastic. Charleston is a beautiful place and we look forward to visiting again and staying at The Spectator.

Wonderfully located boutique hotel. Old world charm with modern rooms. The staff from valet, front desk, butlers to the manager could not have been more helpful and accommodating. In room breakfast was a nice treat. We will certainly return to Charleston SC and this hotel to experience more of the City and great dining choices.

The Spectator Hotel is ideally located in walking distance to all of downtown. It is beautifully styled, very clean and well maintained, including beautiful fresh flowers on the entry table. Southern hospitality reigns~as we were well greeted everyday as we came and went. The welcome greeting, meeting our butler and being offered and served a cocktail was a special touch that we appreciated. The service was exceptional from lobby staff, to butlers, housekeeping, and bar staff. We enjoyed the live jazz in the bar one night, which was an added plus. Also, the bar staff created well made cocktails. The candy jar in the lobby was special touch, as were the in-room drinks, snacks and the little nightcaps served in chocolate cups. Breakfasts were ample and delicious. We would highly recommend this hotel and happily return ourselves. Our butler for most of our stay was Darryl and shout out to him for his most hospitable, friendly service.

We were at the Spectator Hotel for five nights at the end of March. It was incredible, I would definitely plan to go back! Hannah C and Wade in Concierge, Matt, James, and Tyler in Valet, and our Housekeepers and Butlers were so friendly, helpful, personable and welcoming. Highly recommend!!
