A spacious loft-style living area with high ceilings, exposed wooden beams, and a mezzanine level.

The Ansonborough

Charleston Historic District

10/10 Excellent

This was our third stay at The Ansonborough, and this time we were celebrating a special anniversary. The hotel made our trip extra memorable with a bottle of Prosecco and some lovely local treats waiting for us in the room. We absolutely love the spacious rooms, with plenty of drawer and wardrobe space to properly unpack and settle in. The small kitchenette areas and separate living spaces are a wonderful added bonus, giving you somewhere comfortable to relax after a day exploring Charleston....

Staybridge Suites Charleston - Mount Pleasant by IHG

Mount Pleasant

10/10 Excellent

Really pleased with our stay at Staybridge. Had not realised breakfast was included, so that was a bonus! And the breakfast offering was lovely, plenty of it, plenty of choice, well presented.... Staff were all helpful, friendly and efficient, rooms and everywhere spotlessly clean, new towels every day. Facilities? No evening restaurant, ( but thats why they were suites with kitchenettes), swimming pool was merely a plunge pool and right next to the car park! Thanks Staybridge for a great...
