The rate for this hotel is presumably based on its location. The same hotel in Mt. Pleasant would likely cost less than 1/2. Overpriced for what you get, but the location is within the Charleston Historic District. Room is adequate, but nothing fancy - typical room you'd see at any reputable hotel chain. The balcony was very tiny and overlooked the top of a gas station. Walls paper thin - had to call front desk to control noise in adjacent unit. Annoying noise also coming from rooftop air conditioner compressor. Told if we had handicap sticker no need to pay for Valet Parking but was charged $130.00 for 3 days which manager eventually reversed. Kudos to the restaurant manager who empathized with the concerns we had regarding the Valet Parking and offered a free breakfast. If we visit Charleston again would not pay $400+ / night and likely would stay at a hotel just outside the city (5–10-minute ride to attractions in city). There are plenty of parking garages near the attractions. Boone Hall is out of the city and would require driving anyway. For restaurants there are many on the very close outskirts of Charleston for just a light meal outside of the city that are reasonably priced. Charleston restaurant prices seem to rival New York City. This is a pricey place to visit and somewhat caters to the elite who don't pay attention to the cost. A very lovely city and well worth visiting but plan your itinerary in a smart way that avoids the exorbitant tourist prices.

Will not stay here again!

For the price - they don’t really offer you anything. No restaurant even though they say you have access to food 24/7. You have to pay for valet even though where the parking is located you can literally walk to your car faster. We walked or ubered everywhere. Don’t have enough staff at the small bar… limited food… and the price for 2 small coffees and 2 bagels $27. We were there 2 nights and NEVER had anyone make the bed, empty our trash… or even clean the room.

Comfy beds and easy to downtown!

We enjoyed our stay, with a very easy check-in. Unfortunately, the room we received had been recently smoked in. As non-smokers, this is offensive. The young man at the desk was very understanding and relocated us right away. The next room was perfect and the beds extremely comfortable. Easy walk to downtown too!

I’ve been staying at the Courtyard Marriott in Charleston for years, and it never disappoints. The location is absolutely perfect — right in the heart of the city where you can walk to just about everything: historic sites, amazing restaurants, shops, and the waterfront. The staff is always incredibly friendly and welcoming, which makes every stay feel like coming home. Whether it’s your first visit to Charleston or your tenth, this hotel puts you right in the center of everything worth seeing. I can’t recommend it enough for comfort, convenience, and Southern hospitality at its finest.

We noticed the bathroom floor was not cleaned well as there was hair in the corner of the bathroom floor, as well as in the shower. Also, the metal strip in the shower flooring was very noisy-post showering. The refrigerator made a humming noise all night.
