The hotel is lovely, but the staff, amenities and the location are the real stars. Our room was very spacious, comfortable, clean and bright. The staff were very welcoming, extremely pleasant and helpful. A wonderful breakfast and afternoon wine/cheese were provided with the stay, as well as coffee and cold beverages all day - what a bonus! The location couldn't have been better - near to the waterfront, Rainbow Row and the Battery park. We were lucky to be there on a day when the hotel provided a short complimentary guided-tour of the harbor/park/surroundings along with an interesting and informative historical overview of Charleston. All in all, one of the best hotel experiences we have ever had.

Where should I begin. We had a lovely stay at the spectator hotel. The service was unique and one of the best I ever experienced. A special thanks to the butlers Chuck and David who did everything to make the best of our Charleston experience. They recommended a very good restaurants and do everything to make their guest happy. I would even say the hotel was better than in some 5 star hotels. We had a wonderful room and the breakfast was delicious. You can decide between many options for your breakfast and they bring it up to your room at the time you prefer. The location of the hotel is perfect and you have a lot options to discover Charleston by foot. I would definitely come back when visiting Charleston.

The most amazing experience. The house is exquisite, and the wonder is kind enough to let you wander así if it was your own. Have breakfast in the dining room, read a book in the library, cocktails in the ball room. Impossible not to get the feel of the historic charming south!!’ And the staff is beyond words, friendly and on top of every detail. You couldn’t ask for more. Thank you, thank you!!!!
