"Everything was absolutely wonderful!"

The Lowline Hotel, part of JdV by Hyatt Charleston

8/10 Good

"The hotel was completely renovated this year, rooms are spacious, beds are comfortable and linens are crisp. Front desk staff, valet parking and our housekeeper Claudia, provided excellent service. The bar in the lobby is very pleasant and had several non alcoholic drinks including beers. There’s a coffee shop but coffee was disappointing. I ordered decaf drinks several times and all of them were watery and flavorless. I found their breakfast options lacking. They offer valet parking for $55 per night as well as self parking for $3/hour capped at $36 per day. The area is lively and offers plenty of dining and entertainment."

Emeline

10/10 Excellent

"Very pleasant and welcoming hotel. Helpful and courteous staff. The coffee and fruit and water on each floor quite a treat and perk."

Andrew Pinckney Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Very well appointed, clean, well staffed historical property right in the heart of the historic district. Extremely close to worthwhile horse drawn carriage rides and shopping galore at the famed city market and small street side shops. Breakfast was a pleasant surprise, plentiful and fresh! The staff were so friendly for breakfast and afternoon cheeses & wine, also complimentary! Valet service went beyond plus the bicycle taxis were also readily available and reasonable."
