I did NOT appreciate housekeeping calling at 9:49am to see if we wanted our room serviced--not cool, Best Western. I'm on Vacation! And I'm not 60 so don't wake me up to give me towels on YOUR schedule. This was not even the day we were checking out. Simply unacceptable. We arrived during cocktail hour and it felt like we...

Lovely room and very friendly and educated staff. Loved the happy hour in the cozy bar area. Breakfst by the pool was delightful. Perfect location, you can walk anywhere in downtown Charleston from here.

Stayed one night in a standard queen room which was very nicely decorated, clean and comfortable if a little on the small size. The location is brilliant, just a short walk to the main sights. The guy on reception on arrival was very pleasant and gave us great information to make the most of our one night stay. We went... More

Hotel is in a great location within walking distance of most attractions in the historic district. Staff was very pleasant and your always welcomed at the front door and greeted by the front desk personel. We stopped for cocktails nightly at the bar and enjoyed the company of the guests and bartenders. Rooms were comfortable, clean and slept great in... More

I wasn't sure what to expect with a Best Western. (Sorry BW!) But I thought this was nice. The room was clean. The room was nicely appointed. We had a king bed and a balcony. Granted the balcony looked out to the garage, but beats a sharp stick in the eye. The bathroom sink was granite, or something of the... More

Our cruise came into Charleston very early, but no problem with the wonderful staff at King Charles Inn. They made us feel right at home - coffee, parking car, gave us directions to various restaurants and tours - all within walking distance. (Try out 'Toast' for breakfast - 2 blocks away) Many thanks to Michael and Rhonda for going above... More

First off this location is great and has free parking which helps considering how busy the area is. As soon as you walk out the front door you are in the middle of Charleston and the atmosphere is great and rather relaxing. Lots of good restaurants are within walking distance as are the touring companies. The staff was very friendly... More

This was our second stay at the King Charles Inn. We were not disappointed. We were upgraded to a King Deluxe balcony room at no extra charge upon our arrival. The staff were friendly and very helpful. The room was nicely appointed and comfortable. The balcony overlooked the parking lot, but it was still pleasant to sit in the rocking... More
