I recently stayed here for a professional conference. The facility is easy to get to, the rooms are ample, the staff is friendly and the food is good. The view from the upper floors is incredible and the hotel is convenient to the historic district. Overall a nice place to stay.

We recently stayed at the Charleston Marriott as our daughter was looking at the College of Charleston. The rates were more reasonable than the hotels closer to the college. We liked the hotel. The staff was professional and friendly; the rooms were clean and updated, and the fitness center was fine. We also liked that the hotel is in walking... More

Stayed at this hotel for a couple nights. The rooms are average rooms at best. Interior of room was dated and in need of refurbishment. Things didn't appear to be as clean as one would expect. The pillows were nearly none existent even though foam had been requested. Internet was very slow. The equipment in the gym was disgusting. Mold... More

I frequently stay in Marriott hotels, and this one is pretty average compared to the others I've stayed in. I was surprised at the lack of customer focus at the Starbucks, and the food quality in the premium lounge didn't meet the usual Marriott standards. Next time, I would try the Courtyard.

We were in Charleston for one night and stayed at this Marriott for the first time. We generally stay elsewhere but it was full and we are happy that it was!

Came here for a convention. Usually expect and get so much more from Marriott. Rooms had mold all a round the windows (which did not open). Bathroom fan rattled so loudly I could not stand to keep it on. ( I was told by other attendees they had all the same thing). Shower head was coming out of the wall.... More

The service at this hotel is excellent. All of the front desk personnel were very helpful and responsive during our stay. Edward Gomard, front desk manager, did an exemplary job responding to our questions about the hotel's services and local tourist attractions. Thad Cosby, bellman, provided exceptional service with luggage and local transportation assistance. He was also very courteous and... More

This hotel is close to everything but away from the crowds on King St. It has a beautiful courtyard and pool area that is great for relaxing after a long day. There is a small covered garage at the back of the hotel that few people know about. Great for getting the car out if the hot sun.

The Charleston Marriott is an older hotel outside the historic district which is a 7 minute car ride away. The rooms are comfortable but no bathtub in ours. The one midday meal we had in the resturant was good and the public spaces are very nice. What made our two night stray memorable was five star service. In spite of... More

Thank you for your feedback and your family's service in the military. Yes, we are a short distance from the historic district (1.5 miles), but we try to make up for that issue by running a shuttle for our customers so you can avoid paying for parking downtown. We also offer free parking on property, which many properties in historic... More
