Top Rainbow Row Hotel Reviews

The Ryder Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The staff is phenomenal! They are so friendly, helpful and make you feel like a part of the family when you step in the space. Rooms are clean and updated with some lovely options, especially the refillable water bottles and large robe. We will definitely be back."

Emeline

8/10 Good

"Very nice hotel with beautiful courtyard."

Harborside at Charleston Harbor Resort and Marina

8/10 Good

"The staff was great but when we went to check out no one was around and I had to go behind the counter to get the exit code. Did not see it advertised but there is a free shuttle between downtown Charleston and the hotel- had we known we would not have rented a car for the weekend. The hotel is a little dated but lots of amenities, even in the cooler temps! Would stay again!"

The Beach Club at Charleston Harbor Resort and Marina

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was wonderful, only thing I’d change is the rugs next to the bed. They weren’t the most textile-pleasing feel. Also, it is not a “stretch out your legs” tub."

Indigo Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Ethan was phenomenal at check in. Easy and informative. Love the social and night cap that they offer. Great location."

Market Pavilion Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the coffee and continental breakfast in the hall outside our room."

The Meeting Street Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice continental breakfast."

HarbourView Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel staff is amazing, super accommodating and friendly. The hotel itself was beautiful with much to offer like wine and cheese hour, bike rentals and unlimited water, coffee, tea and other beverages. This place makes you feel at home. One of the best hotels I’ve been too. The highlight was getting served breakfast in bed. Highly recommend."

Mills House Charleston, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful hotel within walking distance of all the restaurants and the French quarter. Lots of landmarks to see. Very close to the market"
