We visit Charleston several times a year and would not stay anywhere but at the Palms Hotel. The hotel is right on the beach and we enjoy sitting on the comfortable balcony with a fantastic view of the beach and ocean with a bird's eye view of all the activity. The desk staff is super friendly and very knowledgeable about... More

My fiance and I visit Charleston all time, but we typically stay in the city. However, being that he is originally from Florida, he really wanted to stay on the beach to kind of remind him of home. We chose the Palms Hotel because it was right on the ocean and had a ton of shops and restaurants nearby and... More

We stayed here on our way to Charleston also. We made reservations thru Priceline, therefore we did not get to pick our room. The fact that we got a great deal on priceline is the reason I rated the value so high. They were accomodating in changing the room from a two bed room, to our preference of a king... More

It was an impromptu trip for us. We were on our way to Charleston but decided to ride through Isle of Palms and fell in love with the quaintness of the little town. We were in walking distance of several restaurants/ bars so it was nice to park the car and walk where ever we wanted to go. We really... More

We are so happy these guests decided to drive onto the island and discovered our hotel. We are always happy to read the reviews of happy guests. We are glad they enjoyed the convenience of being near restaurants and souvenir shops. They were on their way into Charleston, which is only 12 miles south of us, so they got to... More

We came to the Charleston area after Christmas to tour the area. Stayed two nights at the Palms Hotel. Will definitely come back. The room prices are modest - our room was comfortable and clean. We stayed in a room with no view as we were not going to be in our room much and it was very cozy. This... More

The sunsets from the beach right outside the hotel were spectacular every night. The location is great--it's a cute little beach town, and in November, it wasn't very crowded. It is a nice drive into Charleston proper, and it's not far from Mount Pleasant with all its attractions. The room was nice and clean but nothing special. It was a... More

As mentioned, November is a nice time to come and visit with us, especially if you want to avoid the large summer crowds. The weather is usually still nice that time of year as well.

Stayed here last weekend while visiting the Charleston area. Decided to go with an oceanfront room so that we could see the Ocean from the room. Good value - we paid $159 a night which is not bad considering the view, the nice big balcony we sat on as much as possible to view and listen to the ocean. We... More
