The Charleston Place is situated in the historic heart of Charleston. All of the attractions are on the hotel’s doorstep which makes exploring the city on foot a pleasure. A ten-minute stroll south will bring you to Broad street with its restaurants and bars. The waterfront park lies a further five minutes to the east. It's also opposite the Charleston City Market, which offers arts and crafts and boutique clothes and food.

Food and drink

Breakfast is served in the Palmetto Café, either alfresco in the courtyard or inside in a ‘garden-style setting’ surrounded by giant windows and plants. The Palmetto Café is open for lunch and dinner, but you may want to try the Charleston Grill, one of the most highly rated restaurants in the city.
