“Loved it”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 May 2012 NEW

We stayed here 1 night before moving on to Charleston for 2 more nights. We'd never been to Beaufort before (and now wish we'd stayed all three nights there), so we didn't know where to eat. No problem, the girl checking us in rattled off two places - Luther's and Plum's. Both were great. The room was clean and I... More

Stayed here 2 nights, check in quick and easy, room was fab. Amazing bathroom, best sleep ever on memory foam mattress and great understated service from the staff. Lovely little coffee shop/cafe on site and an indoor market that does tasty breakfasts across the road. We had a top class meal at Breakwater restaurant too. Walking around the area there's... More

Having never been to South Carolina, Beaufort was a sweet little surprise. The staff at City Loft Hotel could not have been friendlier or more accomodating. Upon arrival, we wanted to explore the city a bit and when we mentioned this to the staff, they promptly made bicycles available to us. Later, we no sooner mentioned the need for ice... More

I thoroughly enjoyed staying at this hotel. The amenities are plentiful, the room is comfortable, clean, and well appointed, and the location is perfect right in the middle of the restaurants and old homes in historic downtown Beaufort. We did have an issue with our TV, which we notified the front desk about on our way to dinner and by... More

The coolest (and only) hipster hotel in Beaufort. Very relaxed- not pretentious at all! The location is absolutely perfect for taking a stroll down Bay Street and the bikes are a must do when checking out all of the historic properties. The staff was excellent and helpful and Stephanie (General Manager) went above and beyond to make our stay stress... More

For Beaufort South Carolina this was a very nice place to stay. The staff was very friendly and accommodating . Room was very clean, nice bed, turn down service, large bathroom with separate tub and shower. This is a converted motel into a upbeat swanky place to stay. Close enough to walk everywhere in downtown Beaufort and also had free... More
