Charleston Hotel Guide - John Rivers Communication Museum hotels in Charleston, United States of America.

"We visited the Charleston Place in 2024 for Thanksgiving weekend for the kickoff to Christmas and the stay was no less than MAGICAL. Our child was enthralled with the carolers signing and the lighting of the giant tree followed by bubble "snow." She received cookies and milk at bedtime and a stuffed animal to tuck her in. It was amazing and we wanted to return for the same experience so rebooked for the same weekend in 2025. However, 2025 was not the same. I understand the parking lot was getting refurbished, but the bubble snow was a joke on the terrace. The cookies came at 9:00, far past our child's bedtime, and there was no stuffed animal. I left my makeup bag and called 4 hours later to report, followed up four time and it was never turned in..... The magic was unfortunately left in the past. "

"Hotel suite decor was dingy. Absolutely no privacy as I opened 104 suite door into main concourse for the hotel. Open door or downstairs window curtain to find guests at hotel restaurant or patio staring right back at you. Outdated carpets and furniture. Cramped into two room split level suite with almost no direct sunlight through two small windows. Bed spread and linens, comforter were rather cheap quality. For me to use 2nd sofa bed, I had to move faux marble coffee table. Just two pillows (without cases) and a sheet for it. Despite high end cost of stay, ($2900 for 3 nights!) none of the three wine bottles placed in room were complimentary $25 ea. Lots of emphasis on booze in decor and amenities and the staff’s approach to defusing tension and stress w guests check-in is to randomly offer you a rum punch when you check in. On positive note, valet service was excellent. Overall a total bust except for the Charleston southern “whiskey gentry” that seem to love the place. "

"Nothing at this time "

"Great location walkable to areas of interest."

"Furniture in our room seemed to be from the 60’s. The A/C was ancient and we couldn’t dial in a comfortable temperature. The evening reception snacks were not quite as good as what I could get on an airplane. On the good side, the staff was very helpful and friendly and the breakfast was very good. "

"Bathroom was very small and there was no water pressure"

"Wonderful as always."

"Rooms were good size. Breakfast options were good. HI location was close to Charleston places to visit, restaurants, and shopping."

"Location: not directly in the middle of it all but close enough to not deal with traffic and have a short walk to a lot of major checklist places. The Hotel: very cool place in an old build g with lots of charm. Boutique style so not a lot of rooms and people. Manny was a great bartender and the rest of the staff were very friendly and accommodating. The Room: very cozy with plenty of space and amenities. No complaints about the comfort of the bed either. We slept great. The Con: the only con I had was that you can hear the neighbors at night. But like any other space. When the noise stops, you hear a pin drop. Not enough to wake us up, but noticeable. No you can’t hear the guy next to you snoring, but you hear the doors shut and the toilet flush. Lol. Overall a great stay and highly recommended. "
