Charleston Hotels

Overview

It's all about intimacy and authenticity in historic Charleston, with romantic, riverside B&Bs and tiny, boutique hotels decked out with period furniture. A handful of larger hotels can be found in and near downtown, and the budget-minded will find a few chain motels on the peninsula and many more on the highways leading into town.
