No remote/replacement for different TV so half the buttons don't work, pealing wall paper, ended up with two queens instead of the requested king, breakfast was diner quality (though I came down 15 minutes before lunch). I had to stay here to out on a conference for the second time and I just don't like this hotel. Marriott usually does... More

As I'm lucky enough to have access to amazing rates with Marriott it would have been crazy to stay anywhere else however this property was a bit disappointing compared to other same level Marriotts I've stayed at elsewhere. It's an older property and it shows. Not so much in the main reception and larger public areas but in the corridors... More

We recently had a meeting at the Charleston Marriott and while the hotel isn't located in downtown Charleston, they do have a convenient shuttle that drops you off and picks you up twice on the hour. The hotel overlooks the river and there is a nice riverside path. The service here was really outstanding. As a meeting planner that plans... More

My stay at this property was flawless. Mr. John Weaver made me feel right at home. His outstanding customer service and attention to detail was exceptional. During the evenings, John kept the Concierge Lounge impeccable and always well stocked. His sincere smile and friendly attitude made my stay a memorable one. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone the entire... More

Say what you will about this hotel, average, great, old, or remodeled however one thing you cannot say is that it's in downtown Charleston. I drove to Charleston Easter weekend for a friend's birthday and thought I would save money by staying at the Marriott. I did save approximately $50 a night however I lost all the convenience of staying... More

Having stayed in the French Quarter for the previous couple of nights, we were concerned the Marriott would lack convenience to old Charleston. We were pleasantly surprised. The hotel appeared to be an older Marriott from the outside, but it was beautiful inside. It obviously had a recent facelift. The rooms were spacious. The staff was friendly and helpful. The... More

We had a room on the 9th floor. The room was nice and the beds very good. The aircondition worked well, but the air was a bit damp - so all of my clothes felt damp as well... The fitness room was very good and spacy and the pool area was nice. You have to pay extra to access the... More
