Miks inimesed seda armastävad
- Endless complimentary food & drink: champagne at check-in, evening wine & cheese, nightly cookies & milk
- Perfect location next to City Market but tucked down a quieter side street
- The 'Sound Sleep' pillow menu with 7 different options
Kiire kokkuvõte: It's a masterclass in service and free snacks, but the lack of a pool and current nearby construction might annoy light sleepers.
Vaadanud @ettevi_wanderlust: I felt like Southern royalty here. From the champagne at check-in to the massive evening cheese spread, they spoil you rotten. The terrace view of the church steeple is the perfect spot for a quiet morning coffee. It’s elegant but totally unpretentious.

Reality check
Some rooms facing the market or construction zone can be noisy, and the 'market view' often just means looking at the roof of the market sheds.
- You love being spoiled with free treats and personalized service
- You want to be walkable to absolutely everything in the French Quarter
- You prioritize a high-end mattress and pillow selection over a pool
Puhtus ja hooldus

- Bathroom hygiene: Italian marble bathrooms are generally spotless. Water pressure is excellent.
- Maintenance: The property is well-maintained, though a few guests noted minor wear like scuffed elevators.
- Linens & towels: High-quality European linens and waffle-weave robes. No complaints here.

Enne broneerimist
Head teada
- There is a small 'Destination Fee' (~$2.28/night), which is surprisingly low for Charleston.
- The hotel offers free bike rentals—grab them early in the morning to beat the heat.
- Check-in includes a glass of champagne; don't rush it.
Mida kaasa võtta
- Earplugs (just in case you get a street-facing room)
- Walking shoes (the cobblestones in this area are brutal on heels)
- Stretchy pants (seriously, the amount of free food is dangerous)
Ruumi nõid
Parimad valikud

“I am a light sleeper and would love a room on the highest possible floor, facing the interior courtyard or explicitly AWAY from the current construction project across the street.”
FAQ ja peidetud nipid
Kõik, mida tegelikult tahad teada enne broneerimist.
Is there a resort fee?
Technically yes, but it's often listed as a tiny 'Destination Fee' around $2-3, unlike the $30+ fees at beach resorts.
Is the hotel pet-friendly?
No, pets are not allowed. You'll need to look elsewhere if bringing a furry friend.
Does the hotel have a pool?
No. If a pool is a dealbreaker, check the Charleston Place or Hotel Bennett nearby.
What is the parking situation?
Valet only at ~$46/night. There is a public garage at Cumberland & Church if you really want to self-park, but you can't charge it to your room.
Is breakfast included?
Yes, a 'gourmet continental' breakfast is free. It includes pastries, fruit, yogurt, and usually one or two hot items like quiche or hard-boiled eggs.
How bad is the noise?
It depends on the room. Interior rooms are quiet. Market-facing rooms hear the city waking up early. Construction noise is a current variable to ask about.

- ✨
You can have the complimentary breakfast delivered to your room for free (just tip the server).
- ✨
The evening wine reception (5:30-6:30 PM) is generous; don't buy pre-dinner drinks elsewhere.
5 asja, mida peaksid teadma enne reisimist
💡The 'Market View' is often just a view of the slate roofs of the market sheds, not a sweeping vista.
💡The elevator floor has been flagged in reviews as surprisingly dirty compared to the pristine rooms.
💡There is no restaurant on-site for lunch/dinner, but they have room service partnerships.
💡The 'terrace' rooms vary wildly in size—some are huge decks, others are standing-room-only balconettes.
💡The hotel entrance is actually on Linguard Street (a small alley), not directly on Church Street.
