Very nice high end, old school hotel with very polite service all around. Spacious rooms and hallways have a high end hotel feel. Nice upscale lobby restaurant. Great hotel location (It was too cold to use the outdoor roof bar and deck, but I’m sure it’s great in warm weather. ) My favorite feature was the abundant coffee service on our floor that was available all morning long. A great high end amenity. We would come back again. This trip we got a good rate too.

Conveniently located downtown. We walked everywhere. The food in Grill 225 was amazing! Jimmy is a great server with a fun personality. Our room was immaculate. We had a nice balcony. Can't go wrong with free pastries and coffee in the morning, cookies in the afternoon and little biscuits with turn down service. Love the noon check out time. It was a great experience.

The hotel was clean. Staff was friendly and helpful. Did not eat at the 225 restaurant. The Pavilion Bar drinks were good pours, but the food is basically bar food. In my opinion not worth the cost. The bed linens were great, but the bed mattress sloped down on either side so it was hard to find a position where I didn’t feel like I was sliding off the bed. Needs a new mattress. At checkout I found a $36 charge for watching TV!! What a rip off. In all my travels I’ve never been charged for watching regular TV channels. It really is a lovely property, but if I return to Charleston I won’t be staying here.
