Best Western King Charles Inn

We come to Charleston about twice a year for a mini-vacation. The hotel, though not brand new, was perfect. Very clean and comfortable. The location is a big plus as far as being able to park your car, (it's free), and being within walking distance to most locations. The staff was courteous and helpful. We'd gladly stay there again.

Be aware that "traditional queen room" is very very small. It is in a space similar to a typical hotel room - but half of that space is now taken up by an elevator shaft! There were about 2-3 feet of space around the bed to walk and one had to practically stand on the toilet to close/open the bathroom door. The size is a shock/disappointing if you are not expecting it - which we weren't. O.. needs to communicate this clearly to people when they book. Photos on website are of king rooms. The king bed room is a more typical size and much more pleasant. Both rooms were very clean, nice linens, furnishings, etc. Pool and bar area pleasant. Good location for walking around Charleston. Very helpful day staff. View from room was of parking garage although some rooms look over street.

Staff were excellent and the location was great for seeing the city.

The location was great and within walking distance to everything in the historic area. The staff was very nice and the rooms clean. They were currently going through renovations so they did not have a lounge or resteraunt area. But plenty of places nearby to eat at! The free parking was a good perk to have.

prefect location in Charleston, walking distance to almost everything, if not just hop on the free trolly right across the street

staff was great .....heating system made noise and made sleeping at times difficult. The hotel was nice but nothing special.....except for the staff

Had a great experience at this hotel. Helpful friendly staff, great location. Nice big bathroom. Lots of fabulous restaurants within walking distance.

My room was small, but it was very clean (even the TV remote!) and it's hard to beat the hotel's location. Plus, free off-street parking. You do, however, have to pay $5 to use the gym next door if you want to work out.

A great value and location especially if you love the restaurant Fig and Theater 99!

The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful, which is something I really appreciate when in unfamiliar territory. While our room was clean and well appointed, it was very small. There was only room for 1 suitcase stand, so I moved a table and positioned my suitcase on the floor, out of the way. I was also disappointed with the view of the roof!!! I would have rather looked out onto the street, or even a parking lot. I would have stayed elsewhere had I known the dining room was undergoing renovations, and therefore, food service was on hiatus. I would have stayed elsewhere. One other area needing some attention is the partially underground parking lot. I found it dark and cramped, considering the large vehicles people seem to favor. Also, after it rained, there was standing water everywhere that need to be negotiated with our luggage in tow.
