This a very nice boutique hotel located in a convenient area in Charleston. The buffet breakfast was also very good. The lobby and bar area is small but quaint.
I cannot recommend The Palmetto enough! From the moment we arrived to check out it was a five star experience. Friendly staff, excellent amenities, great breakfast. Perfect location.
Our deluxe king room was quite snug. We stayed on the 4th floor and the person above us was stomping so so much. The property is absolutely lovely and the location was ideal- easy walking to lots of wonderful food. I would definitely recommend this hotel- maybe just spring for the superior king.
Nice hotel. The staff is excellent. My only disappointment was that while the rooms are spacious, there is not an adequate table and chair to work from. The only via option was a sofa table with a very small and low stool.
Hotel was beautifully decorated. Room amenities included bath robes and a generous room bar. Lobby has a bar which serves breakfast every morning
Great location. Highly recommend

Excellent location. Old facility but updated particularly the bathroom. High end room was small. Continental breakfast small but ok. No signage to find check in/parking .
Staff generally good except the valet parking attendant who did not offer to load our luggage into the car. Fire alarm forced us out onto the street one evening - false alarm I guess. Crying baby across the hall clearly heard in our room . Rate between ok and good. Would look for a better place for the price.
Not there for business. AC worked great. Engineer fixed heat problem right away. Moved us to a different room because shower head wasn’t working properly. Everything worked well in the nee room except the carpet was dirty and stained.
