The staff was great and the hotel was nice and very clean. We also liked its proximity to shops and restaurants, and to the bridge to head over to the islands (Isle of Palms, Folly Beach, etc.). I would definitely recommend this hotel.

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.

My family and I stayed for one night as we were driving back from FL. We love Charleston and wanted to see the city again so we booked 2 rooms for the night. We arrived early and didn't anticipate the rooms being ready. Thankfully valet was available and we could leave our luggage and venture out. Check in was supposed to be at 4 pm, however we didn't have our rooms available until 530 pm. It was a bit of headache since we couldn't freshen up. However the front desk clerk (I don't know her name) gave us water and was very apologetic. When we finally checked in, she did give us a 2 pm check out and a free bottle of wine, which were both greatly appreciated. The rooms not being available at 4 were unfortunate but not enough to keep us away whenever we do come back to visit. Location is fantastic to King Street which is why we chose this hotel to begin with. Overall, would recommend!

The staff was really welcoming and helpful. Valet, Ari B made a special impression on us, remembering our names and he gifted a special keychain to my son after he commented on it. The room was great, and the hotel was perfectly situated to walk everywhere in town.

The only downside, and it was no fault of the hotel, is that someone had left the clock radio alarm set in the next room and even though no one was in the room, it went off at 6AM. I heard it and it woke me up. The hotel staff immediately came up and got it turned off. No harm, no foul.
