Amazing Hotel!!
Pros:

This was our first visit but it definitely wont be our last. The staff at this hotel was so warm and welcoming, and went out of their way to make our stay happy and comfortable. Rooms were clean and bright, and every afternoon there was wine and a wonderful spread of food in the lobby where we could relax and spend time meeting other guests. There was a refrigerator with bottled water available for guests which is a nice touch after exploring Charleston during the dayatime. Every night you order what you want for breakfast and what time to have it delivered. We chose to have our breakfast on the rooftop deck where we could enjoy our food with a view of the water. Great location, great hotel!!!!!

Great Location, nice hotel
Pros:

Love this place. Our room overlooked the fountain with a view of the Harbor. Room was spacious with lots of big windows, was clean. Staff were all very friendly and helpful (Melissa especially!). I was in town for work, so the wine and charcuterie every day at 5:00 when I got back was a nice treat. Tips for those planning on booking-

Remember to fill out your breakfast card and hang it on your door in the evening. We had it delivered to our room every morning. I did forget to fill it out one day and just hand walked it down to the staff and they brought it to us shortly after.

The gym is at their sister hotel a few blocks away, ask for a separate key card for access, although the staff at the other hotel can also let you in without it, but your normal room card won’t work. Nice gym, normally had it to ourselves.

There are more dining options than could be listed all in walking distance, we didn’t use the car at all. The waterfront is beautiful, lots of great walks.

You could park at the parking deck a block away, but it’s $3/hour. The difference in cost between that and valet, when you factor in the convenience of the valet, is negligible. All in all, had a great stay, will definitely stay there again.

Great hotel and location
Pros:

My 14 yr. old grandson and I were greeted at the door by a bellman who took our luggage to reception where we had to wait about 20 minutes for our room to be ready/check-in. While we waited, I was inquiring about the water taxi and the bellman went across the street to the water taxi booth to confirm my questions and get me further information. He went above and beyond as well as the breakfast room service and cookies and milk!
