The Planters Inn is a beautiful place to stay while visiting Charleston. The location is right in the center of all the action but manages to create a private peaceful environment. The beautiful walkway and outdoor garden area were welcome sites after a long day of sight seeing. The rooms were beautifully decorated with period-style furnishings, and the four post bed was very comfortable. The staff was incredible from the moment we got out of our Uber straight through the moment we checked out. We will definitely be back.

This property is cute with everything you need, within walking distance. The staff is friendly. The only downside is the lack of parking. It's valet only, and you were told to pull up in the front, to check in, however, there were cars parked there and we had to drive around the block, several times. It was raining when we arrived, so by the time you found a spot to get out and walk to the inn, you were soaked. Parking information was difficult to find on their website. I called the front desk to ask and was told parking was valet only, for $50 a night and you could self park on the street, but you couldn't park on the street at night. You could also find a parking garage and pay less money, but not all garages allowed for overnight parking and if it did, you had to walk a few blocks, which was fine, when it wasn't pouring rain. If you are from out of town, you don't know that parking is an issue. We liked the Planters Inn, but we wished the parking was better and our bed was worn out. As were the pillows. We wished we had a fridge and microwave. My husband has dietary issues and having the ability to go to the store and have food in the room, would have been nice. Pros : Cute hotel and courtyard. Friendly staff. Walkable and quiet. Cons: The parking. The bed and pillows needed to be replaced.

Elegance, serenity, convenience, and a topnotch staff that goes out of its way to meet guests' needs make Planters Inn the ideal place to stay for exploring Charleston. Southern charm and hospitality at its best. The Peninsula Grill, the hotel's onsite restaurant, offers the best shrimp and grits in Charleston. The hotel's only drawback in my book is that you cannot open any windows.

We liked the location - easy walk to everything downtown in the historic district. We liked that it is a historic hotel. We disliked the view of a wall from our room and that they did not serve decaf coffee in the morning - only in the evening so we had to purchase it. The site also did not publish that parking is valet only or you’re on your own to park somewhere else.
