“The hotel excels with its prime downtown location, placing guests steps away from Charleston's historic charm. I'm particularly impressed by the commitment to guest comfort, from attentive housekeeping to proactive dining accommodations for those with dietary needs. An active renovation promises to elevate the guest experience even further, maintaining its position as a top-tier destination.”
