Beds were really comfy and the desk staff was super nice. Loved the parking perks - can't beat their parking agreement in Charleston!

Location, walking distance to many restaurants. Can’t say enough good things about staff, especially Alaina Grossley. She was so attentive and helpful—above and beyond! A million thanks for our wonderful stay. We will return!

The hotel was in the perfect location for walking around downtown Charleston. They had a wonderful happy hour in the bar. The beds were comfy and the staff was very helpful and friendly.

Debora, United States of America

Spaciousness, comfort of bed and chairs, bath towels, sound proofing of rooms, FRIENDZlY staff. Location was ideal for us.

Frances, United States of America

The room we booked online was not satisfactory (smaller than anticipated). The staff was able to move us to a larger room, and did not charge for the upgrade. Also, the King Charles, offers free on-sight parking, which is unusual for a hotel in downtown Charleston.

William, United States of America

The staff was courteous and the parking is so convenient to the rooms and the location is great.

Johanna, United States of America

The bed was great. The staff goes over and above their job to pleade guests.

“I would book a King room if I stayed at your property at another time, if price was right.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Group of friends
- • Traditional Queen Room
- • Stayed 4 nights
We booked a traditional queen, the room was on the small side but that didn't bother me as much as the tiny bathroom, you just couldn't move about freely. Also, we had maid service everyday except on Christmas day but our bed was never made up on those other days, which I found strange.
The staff was wonderful, hotel in a great location, public areas warm and cozy and parking in back a plus.

I read other reviews for the King Charles Inn prior to picking this as our place to stay. I guess the hotel has done some renovations, because we did not find any of the issues that others complained about. They proudly announce to you that they are the only hotel left that gives you free parking in Charleston. It is a plus since parking can run $20 to $30 dollars a day. Once we parked our car we didn't need it again until we left. Other reviews have mentioned that you can't get to your room without using some stairs. That is not really true. If you ask when checking in how to get to your room from the parking lot, they will tell you about this elevator in the far corner of the parking lot that you can use with your room key to gain access. From there, you do not have to schlep your bags up any stairs. It is a bit of a workout for those with bad knees, but for us it was way better than what I expected from reviews I had read. When you checkin they give you a paper ticket to place on your dashboard so you don't get towed. Breakfast is served in a little bar area, but you must pay extra for that. We did get placed in a room with a "view" of Hasell Street (as opposed to views of parking lot or other less desirable views. We found it to be noisy, even on the 4th floor. Overall our experience was very pleasant. If you want to stay in the market area of Charleston, the location at this price can't be beat.
