Top Charleston Hotel Reviews

Indigo Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the atrium- so peaceful with the fountain. Evening reception was very nice and breakfast was one of the best continentals I’ve had."

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Charleston Riverview

6/10 Okay

"The place looked old and worn. The room was clean, the staff was pleasant. But having a room that faced the boatyard with a stack of boats racked up like groceries out of the window, and forklifts beeping until all hours of the night wasn't very pleasant. Also, the hotel isn't within walking distance of anything. I arrive just after lunch very hungry.And the only restaurant with a walking distance opened at four o'clock"
