The Francis Marion Hotel

8/10 Good

"Hotel was absolutely BEAUTIFUL and in a great location. Any type of cuisine you could want is within a 10 minute walk along with lots of restaurants serving up local fare. Staff was super helpful and for a hotel that is over 100 years old, it was very well kept and clean. Only complaint is that beds are full size, not queen so be sure to pay close attention when booking. I did not and found it difficult for our party of 3 to sleep in only two beds. Staff was amazing about bringing in a twin size roll away when I asked for one... but it unfortunately was also very uncomfortable. And the Starbucks was closed. Those are my only complaints. Otherwise hotel was absolutely BEAUTIFUL and in a great location. We were only there for a weekend but we really enjoyed our stay in Charleston."

Tides Folly Beach, Charleston's Oceanfront Hotel

6/10 Okay

"A few things. My wife found one of her pillowcases filthy the next morning. Front desk was made aware and we very understanding. They knocked off the resort fee for one night which wasn't much. Besides that the location and view was excellent. However a few things. 1- The room was small as well as the fridge which was tiny 2- The bathroom had no hooks or towel racks to hang towels. 3- The balcony was smaller than expected and did not have any chairs. 4- A laundry room on site would be beneficial. The staff was all friendly including the cleaning folks. All in all not a bad place but your paying for location and views for sure."

Drury Plaza Hotel North Charleston

10/10 Excellent

"Our flight out of Charleston was canceled at 8 PM one night so we booked the Drury and wish we could’ve stayed several more nights. The hotel has a great breakfast, a wonderful swimming area with hot tub, and the rooms are immaculate. Plus the hotel staff could not have been more accommodating. The room we booked was not available when we got there so we were upgraded to a king suite. It made our flight delay and all that goes with that much more bearable. I can’t recommend this hotel enough."
