Staff were courteous, efficient and professional. Loved how spacious our room was. Double vanities and towel warmer in bathroom were a huge plus as was the Nespresso machine and complimentary bottles of water refreshed daily in our room. Lobby bar is beautiful and serves up some legit cocktails. Would definitely stay at The Spectator on our next visit to Charleston

It was good….not great. Neat bar, but bartender is grumpy and make you feel that your inconveniencing him by ordering a drink. Also, last call at 10 pm seems odd for a hotel bar. Breakfast was terrible, don’t eat there.

We love everything about the hotel. From the time we arrived-from the valet, check-in staff butler staff, cleaning staff and the bartenders-everyone was so friendly and helpful. Butlers,Jim and Will,were very informative on things to do/places to eat. Will was a hoot-he made us laugh every time we saw him. I’ve been to many hotels across the world and this is at the top for sure! We thought you guys may have gone to Japan to get your service training. We cannot complain about anything. We definitely will stay here again when we visit the city again!!

Everything was great except for the breakfast. The eggs were watery. The decaf coffee did not taste good. The bakery items were not fresh. They wee hard and stale. The yogurt was ok but way too sugary. We did not have breakfast the last day because we tried each item and we were not impressed,The bikes that you are allowed to use are in very poor condition and the seats are not stable. The majority of the staff were very nice!

Birthday Celebration

Amazing. Favorite hotel, daily breakfast delivered to the room, bikes, butler service included. Bed is so comfortable and the bathroom is beautiful. Highly recommend. The location in the middle of downtown is perfect, buts still in a quiet location. We stayed with our 1 year old, the property had a pack and play with a crib sheet all set up and ready for us. Refrigerator was also perfect for our family.

A Welcome Island in Charleston

As close to the ideal hotel room and service to go with it as there is in Charleston. The butlers that attend to your needs are a unique feature that matters to the overall stay. The room is well appointed, quiet and dark yet with a view over the busy parts of the city. A welcome island in Charleston.
Large and well appointed room with spa style bath beyond.
A great view over historic Charleston. Lowe floors have a terrace with outdoor seating.
