At the last minute, we decided to visit Charleston for the weekend. We have always loved the Shem Creek area and thought what better way to enjoy it than to stay there. We booked a creekside room and it was lovely. The view from the deck was such a beautiful way to wake up. The area is full of restaurants,... More

I stayed at the Inn 3 nights. The location is beautiful! The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The rooms were extremely clean. I recommend staying on the side away from the creek. You don't have the beautiful views from your room, but it's much quieter. You can explore around the hotel and see all you want to see anyway.... More

If you like to be near the water, close to Charleston, yet not pay exorbitant prices, this is the place to stay! Large rooms, clean, friendly and helpful staff, walking distance to several restaurants. We had a creek view room,and were able to watch dolphins leaping from the water and pelicans diving for fish right from our balcony. The marsh... More

Location and price were the selling points for this hotel - close to Charleston without the high tariffs. The hotel itself was fairly average but had a choice of restaurants and bars conveniently located within walking distance. The rooms were large and clean. We had a two rooms, one of which was the deluxe king with a creek view -... More

My friend and I were looking for a reasonable hotel, close to Charleston but not downtown. We took a chance on the Shem Creek Inn and were delighted with our choice! The room was pretty basic but very clean with microwave and refrigerator. Our room was on the marsh side so it was very quiet. We loved looking at the... More

I stay at Shem Creek Inn everytime I visit Charleston. It is within minutes of downtown Charleston-the Market, the SC Aquarium, the museums and all the wonderful restaurants. It's also an easy drive to the nearby island beaches and local seafood restaurants. And a big Mall on Hwy. 17-if you think you need one. The rooms are ultra-clean with a... More

Clearly we did not live up to this guest's expectations and I apologize for this. Our staff goes above and beyond for our guests, which can be seen in other reviews.
