Top Washington Square Hotel Reviews

The Ryder Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"."

The Meeting Street Inn

6/10 Okay

"Stayed here for one night in Charleston and paid around $440, which honestly felt very overpriced for the overall experience. The hotel itself was decent, but definitely not close to the expectations I had at that price point. The room was okayish, nothing terrible, but nothing that stood out either. The biggest disappointment was the breakfast, which was very limited and underwhelming. Also, parking was inconvenient since it was in an open lot about a 5-minute walk away from the hotel. The location was fine and the stay was manageable overall, but for the amount charged per night, I expected a much better experience and more convenience."

The Francis Marion Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel is dated, the bathrooms are tiny. But it’s very central and the room itself was large. If you book on hotels.com your view is the alleys or other building roofs and chillers. That seems to be the same at most hotels I book thru this app. The breakfast at swamp fox restaurant was awful. The eggs were liquid eggs and the grits were lumpy and dry, the rest was mediocre."

Hotel Bennett

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel Bennett is unbelievable. It had been awhile since we had stayed here and I thought things might show some wear. I was wrong. Everything was fresh and absolutely awesome. Every staff member was friendly and helpful. When you stay at a luxury hotel, you expect this kind of environment. You rarely do today but the Bennett delivers."
