I would say that this is THE best hotel that we have ever stayed! Everything exceeded our expectations. The staff was super friendly. The hotel and our room were spotless. We enjoyed that they offered breakfast (which you may get delivered to your room, and would HIGHLY recommend doing at least once), the snacks in the afternoon (which they offer a variety of wines, cocktails, a selection of cheese, salamis and a bit more) and later on in the evening they also serve warm freshly baked cookies with coffee, tea, hot chocolate (and these are all included with your stay!). They did clean our rooms every day (they also do a turndown service and they would provide water, chocolates and weather predictions for the next day). We felt so at home and when we do go back to Charleston, we will only stay here. I would HIGHLY recommend going to this little gem and we are so glad we did. You will not regret it!

Can't complain about anything, our stay exceeded our expectations.

Everything was immaculate. The food, the staff, the room. The bedding was irresistibly comfortable. Located within blocks to everything we could possibly do in 4 days. We stayed for Christmas celebration, they had live Carolers preform in the lobby, and the space was so beautifully decorated. The deep rich wood interior and marbled spiraling staircase with a 20 ft Christmas tree pertruding through the middle straight up, set the vibe! It felt so comfortable. A huge continental breakfast, wine and cheese every night, Port wine and warm cookies with milk, before bed, with a huge array of snacks. We didn't spend a fortune on restaurants they kept us well fed. The housekeeping was stellar! Jelly beans, and sweets at the desk all day. Locally designed, custom scented pillow spray, locally made natural soaps and lotions, and pillow chocolates...I could go on for days. This lovely place didn't miss any details

The somewhat hidden cost of valet, a little over priced

The location of the hotel was excellent. Walking distance to tons of restaurants and shops. The amenities at the French Quarter Inn are superb! Complimentary champagne upon check in. Complimentary gourmet breakfast every morning. Complimentary wine and hors d'oeurvres every afternoon. Complimentary milk, warm cookies, and port wine every evening. Complimentary valet service. The fitness room was far above the standard hotels. The staff was amazing. Every person working there was polite and helpful. I forgot my sunblock and was headed out to take a boat tour and the front desk staff had some handy free of charge. The hotel itself is absolutely beautiful! This is the only place I will ever stay when visiting Charleston!

There is nothing that could have been better. This hotel exceeded all of our expectations. I don't think that you could find a better place to stay!

The best hotel we stayed at in the USA and at an affordable price. Large room. Wonderful breakfast, which is a rarity in the USA. Many little touches that will lift your spirits. Welcome champagne, in-room treats, happy children with unlimited M&M’s, free bicycles. Very pleasant lobby and courtyard where you want to spend time. Excellent attentive staff. Conveniently located near the market and most restaurants. Reminds us of European hotels where great attention is paid to details, conveying the style and spirit of a historic city. We hope to return to Charleston and the French Quarter again.

It’s a rare case that I liked absolutely everything

Breakfast was buffet style and there was a little of something for everyone (meat eaters, vegetarians, pescatarians). Extremely decent and very fresh. Equally good happy hour with wine and hors d'oeuvres. For us, there was enough that we didn't actually need dinner out as we snacked on salami, olives, cheeses and bread. EXCELLENT staff. Supremely friendly, engaged, charming and all very helpful. Location was perfect for us - as it was close to the market area and therefore in walking distance to many restaurants. We did not need our car during our stay at all but we were not overly adventurous - opting for an A/C bus tour to see the main points of interest.

The only thing we all found irritating, and this is so petty - was the inability to find a TV guide to see what was on, instead of channel surfing. Could have been operator error as we are all over 60!!

The breakfast is a huge disappointment. We’ve stayed at less expensive hotels that had incredible breakfasts. Expected more from this hotel at this price point. Hard to believe at $700 per night you pay for parking. Very disappointed in the Charleston experience this trip. We used to come there once a year. This was first trip since Covid. Food was twice as expensive everywhere. Hotel rates are through the roof and the Market was a letdown. Mostly expensive junk being sold. Also had to deal with teenagers approaching to ask for money for roses. Even saw them arguing with people. Why is that allowed? All that being said, other than crazy higher prices and the so-called breakfast, The French Quarter is still a great place and super comfortable bedding. Great location and the staff was very accommodating, especially our valet, Jay.

The rooms are spacious and luxuriously equipped with a machine sanitizer for your iPhone, phone charger and great linens. Even a working fireplace which you rarely need in Charleston but still.

The breakfast wasn’t all that. I would’ve preferred to go out except it was easy. The pastries were stale and the eggs were overcooked and had sat around too long. Kind of expect that at a Hampton inn but not here. The breakfast patio was beautiful though and the coffee very good. The Marriott we stayed in last week offered almond and oat milk whereas here we were just offered half and half and 2% milk.

Loved Marvin and Tanya. The ladies at the front desk were lovely. Lobby beautiful. Public bathroom had everything and more. Candy in the lobby. Coffee and drinks. Breakfast, wine and cheese and homemade cookies and milk. Everything was lovely and inviting. Staff excellent.

My bed was very hard. Marvin rectified it with a pillow topper. Plus down pillows. The ambiance was elegant. The couch and chair in the living room needs recovering or replacing. Probably the mattress too. The bathroom needs an updated toilet, better lighting and a heater for when it is cold. One thing that will stop me from returning not pet friendly. Maybe you all will consider in the future.

We were there for the snow storm of 2025. It could have been a terrible experience but it was lovely. The staff were friendly and the breakfast and happy hour were great, and we loved the cookies and milk at bedtime. Even though all the shops and almost all the restaurants were closed because of the snow, the location was perfect for exploring Charleston on foot. And there was a fire in the fireplace and comfortable couches for reading. Great stay.

Nothing

The entire staff was exceptional to include Ben the valet, concierge, Marvin Coaxum Operations Manager at the Front Desk Kim & Samantha were so helpful. They provided answers to all our request. House Keeping was marvelous ! Everything, the entire property was spotless! On arrival we were treated with champagne, smiles and hello’s and welcome from everyone we met and true southern hospitality. Every morning breakfast was served ( gratis ) in a beautiful common area decorated with beautiful furniture and access to a patio garden complete with fountain and fruit trees. Wait it gets better! Every evening at 530pm wine charcuterie was available. We were pampered at every turn. Located down town Restaurants and mueseum at short walk away. We can’t over praise the French Quarter Inn! The staff was phenomenal! We shall return! Frank & Dianne

Staying longer
