Since the hotel lacks the space for breakfast area and it was served to the room. We'd definitely prefer buffet breakfast, but a la carte menu although limited contained all essentials.

The personal attention to detail and service was excellent. The staff from the front desk to the vallet to the butlers made us feel exceptionally well cared for. They helped with anything and everything we needed and made it welcoming.
I highly recommend staying at the Spectator!! This place was absolutely wonderful and paid attention to every detail to ensure we were comfortable during our stay. The rooms were beautiful, the bed was comfortable, they highlighted our 50th birthday celebration, the food was fantastic, and the service was a 10/10. I would definitely plan to stay here again in the future.
I’d never been to Charleston before and The Spectator was a perfect first experience. The rooms were spacious and great. The service and hospitality were top notch - from the welcome cocktail to the various butlers who helped with any request. Breakfast was included and was also delicious. Lastly, the location seemed to be perfect given we were able to walk easily everywhere we needed to go.
The hotel is extremely quiet. As always the staff is exceptional from the butlers to the cleaning services. My sister was exceptionally ill while we were there and the staff could not have been kinder in providing assistance and comfort.
There was some water damage in the entrance to the room that looked like it should have been addressed and some mold on the caulk on the bathroom counter. The rooms are clean but starting to feel like they need a touch up.
We stayed here as a family of four and loved the impeccable hospitality, decor, comfortable furnishings, and location. Our kids enjoyed the breakfast delivered to our room and nightly treats waiting for us after we returned for the evening. We made use of the complimentary bicycles and explored the city on two different occasions. Again, the attention to detail was unmatched!
Second time staying and always so impressed! Chuck checked us in and made note that we were celebrating an anniversary and a birthday. Treats left in our room to make us feel special! Breakfasts that are out of this world! We got to reconnect with Jim and he spoiled us! The Spectator is the only hotel we’ve stayed at with butlers - the coolest experience! Craft cocktails, snacks in your fridge waiting for you, plush linens & comfy beds, bath salts supplied at request, and so much more. A decadent experience leaving guests wanting to come back!
Service was excellent

We had a fantastic stay at the Spectator hotel for a long weekend getaway. This has to be one of the nicest hotels from cleanliness, services, amenities, and overall stay that we have experienced. The bellman, David, was exceptional. Courteous, knowledgable, and overall helpfulness were unparalleled. Front desk staff was also warm, welcoming, and accommodating to us throughout. This hotel offers complimentary breakfast, complimentary beverages in your room (still/sparkling water and sodas) as well as snacks that are all refreshed daily. The bed was ultra comfy and we didn’t hear a peep from either inside or outside the hotel. Would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend.
Location was great but, the staff is the best reason to stay here. Attentive, polite, always looking to help. Breakfast brought to your room. Free snacks and beverages. Comfy bed.
Nothing I can think of other than it was pricey. But, you get what you pay for.
Perfect location for romantic getaway. Concierges are so helpful with restaurant suggestions and activities. Gorgeous bar area and those hot breakfast room service experiences are just what every couple needs when taking time to reconnect. Having a butler is something that is easy to get used to having available.
Highest quality boutique hotel just off City Market. Superb accommodations with all the amenities. Out of this world in-room breakfast, fabulous on site bar with live music, and walking distance to countless Charleston attractions. But the best feature of the Spectator is the staff who are totally focused on making your visit remarkable. Front desk welcoming staff, valet attendants, bar masters, cleaning and maintenance staff are 100% remarkable. The most unique feature, though, is the staff of personal butlers who make your visit unlike anything you have experienced! My wife and I have stayed several times and will most certainly return when visiting Charleston.
Perfectly situated in downtown charleston. Superb service and wonderful rooms.
The breakfast was not wow. It didn't seem fresh and the options were limited.
Spent some wonderful times at the Spectator Bar (we stayed at the French Quarter Inn). Outstanding service, drinks and small plates. Special shout outs to Chef Karen Sayward - incredible food! And to bartender Rose and server Temier. Super friendly and accommodating folks. Loved every minute there .
The Spectator is a great property right in the heart of downtown Charleston. We’ve stayed at many hotels in Charleston and this is one of the best for sure. The hotel offers butler service which is not offered anywhere else that I’m aware of in Charleston. All of the staff members were attentive and eager to help and not just because it’s their job but because they actually care about you and your experience. Would highly recommend to anyone who wants an elevated hotel experience.
The rooms are in good condition and the property is well maintained and clean. The amenities such as breakfast in the room, snacks and beverages in the fridge, turndown service, and a welcome drink are unrivaled. The Spectator goes above and beyond and is well worth the stay.
Room was appropriately nice, but the service was fantastic!
This was such an incredible experience, I can’t rate it high enough. Hotel is beautiful but the service is really what elevated this hotel above the rest. Every detail is tended to, the butlers are so friendly, warm, and knowledgeable. Truly our needs were anticipated and no ask was too big. On top of all of that, the welcome cocktails, evening cordials, and beautiful in-room breakfast were just icing on the cake.
A small luxury hotel offering personalized butler service and stylish interiors. The central location makes it easy to explore the historic district.
