My wife and I had stayed here a few years ago when it was a different name so I booked not realizing it was the same place. Great location, comfortable rooms, and quiet. The staff is friendly and we enjoyed our stay. Highly recommend to just get out and try the several options of dining nearby.

We only stayed one night and overall had a pretty rough stay. Our room wasn’t ready when we arrived. When our teen daughter used the shower water poured through the baseboards into the hotel room and onto our luggage and shoes. Their maintenance guy came and just offered extra towels. I can’t imagine the water damage/mold this room has if this happens regularly. We couldn’t use the shower for the rest of our time there. No compensation was offered even though we couldn’t use the shower. Also we valeted the rental car and got there pretty major door dings. I have pics from the day we picked up the car, we went straight to the hotel and now we have damage to the car. Ugh. Oh and we paid $51 to valet for one night. Frustrating to say the least. The hotel itself is pretty and well decorated and has a nice location. But I’m pretty shocked by the lack of service and care we received.

We loved the location. Very convenient for walking to restaurants, the SC aquarium, and the Battery. A couple of minor downsides - the sheer in our window was torn and our duvet had a tear. Also, noisy work was nearby, which set off a fire alarm one day and smelled of metal grinding in the elevator and the lobby.

A fantastic experience from the start. An unexpected medical issue was handled well by the staff, especially the Manager Nick. Unbelievable care and concern from the entire staff. The room and hotel facilities were also fantastic. Highly recommended!

Likes: Exceptional location to explore downtown Charleston without a car. Walking distance to some terrific restaurants & bars such as Peninsula Grill, Le Farfalle, Charleston Place Hotel and more. Front desk & valet staff are very engaging and supportive. The valet text link shows the time it's taking to deliver your car - and it's a pretty short time. Dislikes: mold in the shower (we had 2 rooms, both showers were moldy) which is descriptive of pretty much every Marriott property I've visited over the past year (10 properties). A single (disappointing) restaurant/bar - especially compared to Charleston Place or Planters Inn hotels, each with outstanding restaurant & bar choices. Be aware - downtown Charleston hotels are not known for views. If you stay at the Renaissance, request a room facing the front entry. I rate this 3 overall, because it's a pricey stay, around $500/night for room fees parking. We didn't experience any services that distinguished the property from a Courtyard, other than location. For $500/night, it's average in my opinion.
