Top hotels in Mount Pleasant Historic District
The Francis Marion Hotel
Great old hotel in the heart of the city. Lots of shopping and restaurants. Valet parking was very handy and Uber was never more than 2 minutes from us. The staff were great and the Swamp Fox restaurant had delicious food and a wonderful server named Sylvie.
