    This is a lovely hotel in the perfect location in the French Quarter. But… do not spend the extra $$$$$ for a view room!

    Of all the hotels we have experienced in our travels, Harbor View is at the top of our list!

    We always stay at Harbor View when visiting Charleston, one of our favorite cities. Our room was perfect and even had a view of the water. The inn is convenient for everything, including favorite restaurants, and shops, and has easy access to a place for those who like to walk for exercise. We enjoyed breakfast each morning of our stay. This is a great feature! It was always delivered on time, and we appreciated the various good-tasting selections. Your afternoon Happy Hour and cookies and milk at 9:00 PM have become part of our daily schedule. We often find ourselves having long conversations with lovely new people at these charming amenities. Eating a warm chocolate chip cookie fresh out of the oven is a treat to look forward to each evening!

    My only suggestion would be to add brighter light to the room.

    Breakfast was delicious and it was so nice to have it delivered to the room. Douglas, the concierge, was friendly, efficient and always helpful. My so needed a laptop for a work assignment and Douglas made sure to obtain one for him.

    Noisy AC woke us up the first night then after that we used the white noise filter! We had read about issues with the adjacent construction - our room faced it and we didn’t hear any noise at all.

    Lovely style, excellent service, great added touches such as wine and cheese, milk and cookies. Great location for both the water taxi and the free local bus service.

    Nothing, oh yeah some thought I would be great to build a hotel closer to the shore. We had great views of the harbour from our room, sadly not all rooms will have this luxury going forwards. So not the hotels fault

    All the staff are great and only to happy help. Really spacious room which was well appointed including the bathroom. Great location, especially for walking in the French quarter and to market street. The small touches of cheese/charcuterie at 5pm and milk & cookies at 9pm are fabulous and not to be missed. Breakfast can be taken in the room, on their rooftop or in the atrium, huge choice of non cooked breakfast which was great on both our mornings. The atrium has hot and cold beverages through the day and evening when you come back for a blast of AC and to get out of the heat. I'd highly recommend this place, if I'm ever fortunate to stay in Charleston again I know I need to look no further the here.

    Perfect location for exploring Charleston. We celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary and the staff were so welcoming. Loved the fact breakfast was delivered to your room, the complimentary cheese and wine happy hour and the cookies and milk at bedtime. The hotel even offered a complimentary guided walking tour. The staff really went above and beyond and I would throughly recommend this hotel.
