The Lotrel is in an excellent location and the staff was wonderful. The rooms were nicely appointed with complimentary snacks and drinks. Room amenities were top notch from the Dyson hairdryer that my gf loved to the coffee etc. just a wonderful stay all around. TONS of dining options within walking distance and shopping as well. Highly recommend.

Wow! This was amazing hotel. Super clean and quite. They have a bed turndown service with a cokkie on your bed. They offer free water, tea , and lemonade all the time in the lobby. Fre The decor is so pretty too! Super easy to walk to market or King street for shopping and dining. Self park garage less than 5 mins away and safe too!

My recent stay at The Loutrel has forever raised the bar for my hotel experiences. This gem in the heart of Charleston is more than just a place to stay; it's a benchmark against which all future hotel visits will be measured. The perfection of The Loutrel started from the moment we checked in at midnight, welcoming us into an ambiance of unparalleled hospitality. Each day was brightened by their delightful breakfast and afternoon happy hour, a testament to their commitment to guest satisfaction. The room itself was a haven of cleanliness and comfort. It was, without a doubt, the cleanest hotel room I've ever had the pleasure of staying in. The meticulous attention to detail was evident in every corner of the space, ensuring a restful and luxurious stay. Location-wise, The Loutrel couldn't be more ideally situated. Nestled comfortably within walking distance to all of Charleston's prime attractions, it allowed us to explore the city with ease and convenience. However, what truly sets The Loutrel apart is its exceptional staff. Each member we interacted with was not just friendly and courteous; they went above and beyond to make us feel like family. This level of personalized service is a rarity, making our stay not just comfortable but truly memorable. A special mention must be made of the complimentary drinks and snacks. Sourced locally, they provided a delightful and authentic taste of Charleston's culinary scene. This thoughtful touch added an extra layer of enjoyment

We stayed one night to attend a local concert and move my son into nearby campus. Enjoyed complimentary cocktail upon arrival and club lounge. Very beautiful property. We had to depart at 6:00 am to airport prior to scheduled breakfast service. Front desk arranged for to-go bagged breakfast of delicious items for our travels!! Thank you. Will be back!

Service was great. Contemporary, great ambiance

Excellent air conditioning that was not temperature restricted, it’s difficult to find hotels that have proper cooling systems. This is my new hotel of choice while staying in Charleston.

New clean facility in excellent location. Staff was very friendly.

We had a wonderful stay this weekend. The lavazza coffee machine made delicious coffee each day. We loved the cocktail hour at 5 each night. The staff were all lovely and very friendly. The room was spacious and very nice.

My wife and I simply enjoyed the cleanliness and the wonderful decor in the hotel. Everyone was so helpful, especially the concierge made reservations at a local restaurant for us. I highly recommend this wonderful hotel.

One of my favorite hotels, loved it!

The atmosphere was welcoming and generous.

Great Hotel !

I loved this property. I will stay here next time I visit Charleston

Excellent staff, great service impeccably clean. We enjoyed every day we were here. The manager, the front desk people, the housekeeping staff and the dinning room people were all fun to be around and super accommodating! This is a first class hotel that goes out is it’s way to be one. Exceeded expectations on every aspect of our stay.

Excellent all the way around!

This boutique hotel was an absolute gem! The accommodations were beautiful, clean, and comfortable. It's perfectly located close to great dining, shopping, and the waterfront. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive to all of our needs. Great atmosphere for cocktails on the rooftop terrace. They offered adorable bikes to cruise around the city. Overall, a wonderful experience at this hotel. I'd highly recommend it to anyone visiting Charleston. I can't wait to go back myself!

Very welcoming staff; nice lobby lounge/bar (small but pleasant with good appetizers and light lunches), comfortable beds; happy hour on the roof garden; convenient to many restaurants and shopping.
