Charleston Place - (843) 722-4900

Best pool (it is under a really tall glass ceiling that they open up to the sky sometimes, no chlorine fumes, and not even crowded when I was there). Classy lobby and rooms. Great service. Comfortable spa. Very nice to my young daughter (they even have a small menu of spa services for kids!). We could look down from our balcony and see the horse drawn carriages go by. Right in downtown, quick walk to all of the restaurants and shopping. Best hotel, best amenities, best location. I can't wait to go back.

I have stayed in this hotel no fewer than 200 nights dince it opened. Many of the employeew remain the same. next to the breakers in Palm Beach this hotels staff is the best trained in the South. THey also accept pets and my dog loves Charleston.Room service is great. The hotel dining room is tops.If you are there more than two nighhts go to the restaurant across the streetat planter's Inn or Il Cortile on King Street.

The hotel is what you expect from a luxury hotel. There is no better location for a hotel. The only downside is the gym (weight and cardio room) is too small for this size hotel. The club level is a great extra if you upgrade.
