"We had a great stay. We arrived around noon and our room was ready and we were able to check in early. Since we had flown a red eye to Charleston, it was wonderful to be able to check in early and relax before exploring the city. Location was very good with delicious restaurants within walking distance. It is also close to the city’s free bus service."

"I had a wonderful stay at The Charleston Place. The hotel is beautiful, elegant, and very clean, with fresh flowers and beautiful greenery throughout the property that create a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The location is excellent, right in the heart of historic Charleston, making it very convenient to explore the city on foot. The staff were warm, friendly, and attentive, and always made us feel welcome. I also loved the beautiful lobby and the overall attention to detail throughout the hotel. It was a lovely experience, and I would happily stay here again."
