We have never felt so pampered, the staff really focus on making your experience wonderful! The hotel itself is beautiful, with its spacious bathrooms and piazzas. The proximity to everything Charleston has to offer was great. They are so thoughtful in their approach to making you comfortable, from sleepy chocolates at turn down service to a pillow concierge, to the amazing breakfast, hors d'oeuvres, and cookies and milk, to all the other numerous details I’m leaving out. We fell in love with Charleston and there is no other place we would stay when we return.

If you are looking for the perfect place to stay in Charleston, look no further. Everything about the French Quarter Inn is superb. The bedrooms are large with all the expected amenities. The staff is well trained, warm and friendly and eager to help. The public areas are classy and comfortable, and the location (a short half block from the City Market) is walk able to just about any desired restaurant or site. We loved our stay at the French Quarter Inn and look forward to returning soon.

The hotel is beautiful and offers many amenities from a free wine and cheese hour nightly to fresh baked cookies and milk in the afternoon. The breakfast has an amazing selection of foods and pastries including home-made overnight oats. From the beach cruisers to the pillow menu - they have a lot to offer with very friendly staff.

By way of a happy accident, we found ourselves at the French Quarter Inn in Charleston SC. There aren’t enough words to describe how wonderful our stay was. We were greeted by Syrena, an upbeat and professional desk attendant, and offered champagne on arrival, while Gerald and Kevin took care of our vehicle and luggage. Our room was fabulous! The early evening wine and cheese/meat treat was outstanding, but the cookies and milk before bedtime really topped it off … or so we thought. Surprise! A knock on our door was a wonderful gal (I can’t remember her name) who offered fresh ice, water, sleepytime chocolates, turned down our beds and gave us a card with the next days weather report. We were celebrating a birthday, and a tray of chocolate covered strawberries and a bottle of sparkling cider was delivered to us with a beautiful card. The breakfast buffet was incredible. To say that we felt like royalty is an understatement! Mr. Marvin, the manager, was my last contact, just to tell him what a wonderful job everyone had done. We highly recommend a stay here and would happily come back.

From the moment we walked inside this lovely hotel, we were treated so wonderfully by the entire staff. The hotel is beautiful and the rooms are lovely and spotless. The location is perfect for exploring the city. When we checked in, we were given a welcome glass of champagne. and I was wished happy birthday by the super sweet Kim. The breakfast was bountiful and delicious. Special thanks to Kim, Kerry, Marvin and Aubrey. They exemplify southern hospitality at its finest. They were so lovely and friendly. Special shout out to the general manager, for the delicious bottle of champs that awaited us in our stunning room to celebrate my birthday. We hope to return next year- there is no where else we would stay.

I adore this boutique hotel! The King balcony suite was perfect. The room was spotless, large, and my balcony overlooked the water feature in the courtyard. Excellent customer service, especially from Serena at the front desk, Marvin, and the housekeeper Susan. I will return. Thank you FQI for making my solo trip memorable!

I like staying at beautiful gracious hotels and after a wonderful stay, I add this to my list of all time greats. Stunningly beautiful. Very well located. Extremely helpful staff. The extra amenities were amazing - Champagne at check-in, wonderful breakfast food served at your room or buffet style, seating anytime in the courtyard, pre-dinner wine and light food were excellent. I loved fresh baked chocolate chip cookies and milk before bed. Vacation is a great time to indulge and this hotel is a wonderful place to indulge. Our double queen room was large and beautiful. I think that I saw some complaints about rooms in previous reviews. They seem to have many classes of rooms and they are well described on the web-site. But I also called and spoke to a very friendly and helpful person to pick my room. Charleston is a great walking town. And the hotel was nicely located for taking a break in the middle of the day.

This is a great hotel to stay in to visit historic Charleston. Very friendly staff and impeccable service. We stayed for two nights and would have no hesitation in returning. The evening wine, charcuterie and cheese reception was excellent (as was the sparkling wine on arrival). Our King Suite room was spotlessly clean and very quiet. Charleston is an expensive place to visit and the French Quarter Inn is an expensive hotel but worth it in comparison to others nearby.
