Just got back from a nice stay at the FQ Inn. We were in town for a friend's wedding and originally booked the Charleston Place Hotel, but after seeing the Trip Advisor reviews and roughly $80 total price difference, opted for the FQ Inn. We did visit the lobby and bar of the Charleston Place Hotel twice, but we weren't... more

Spent two nights here in late September and can only say it was a great experience. Absolutely no problems - the check-in was just fine and we enjoyed the champagne and lady fingers. Our room was as we expected - a bit on the small size but a lovely huge balcony to sit out on and enjoy the surroundings. The... more

My wife and I stayed at the FQI over Christmas and from the minute we pulled into valet, everything was absolutely fabulous. It was beautifully decorated, everyone was extremely friendly and helpful and the amenities are just excellent. Faith and Ryan at the front desk were just great, full of terrific information and extremely pleasant. We were lucky enough to... more

We spent five days including Chrsitmas Eve and Christmas Day and Charleston, SC . The hotel is immaculate, tastefully decorated and never gave us the feeling that they had gone home for the holidays. The continental breakfast is expansive and abundant - with a more than adequate time horizon. Staff is attentive, polite and remarkably well informed. The front desk... more

This hotel is ranked #1 for a reason. It is fabulous! The staff was incredibly nice and helpful. It is located just a few blocks from the market - a VERY easy walk. Here is why I love it... - large rooms and bathrooms - very comfortable beds and pillow menus - free wine, cheese, and fruit every night -... more

As a native of Charleston who returns often to visit family, I am frequently asked about the best places to stay while there. I used to have a list of good choices- until now. After my Dec. 10th and 11th stay at the FQI, I can now recommend to only stay here. The hospitality and welcoming atmosphere offered by the... more

After a day of shopping with friends it was a delight to check in at the French Quarter. The bellman was most accommodating with all of our purchases and bags and delivered them to our room while we enjoyed the wonderful wine and cheese provided by the hotel. We made the acquaintance of some other guests from New York who... more

Charleston is a wonderful city for girlfriend getaways to shop, dine, and relax. Our location puts us in the heart of these attractions making multiple trips back to the hotel with packages very easy. We are delighted you enjoyed your stay at the French Quarter Inn. We look forward to welcoming you for the next girlfriend’s getaway.

Beautiful hotel, outstanding service, excellent food! Coffee, tea (hot and cold), lemonade, and candies were available all day in the lovely lobby. FRESH coffee and tea, with cream, lemon and honey, were available in the hallway outside our room 24/7. Lucious breakfasts of delectable French pastries, tasty citrus fruit, apples, bananas, yoghurt and cereal were available to be delivered to... more

I traveled to this area to run a marathon on Kiawah Island, just outside of Charleston and I had an extra night after the race so I decided to visit Charleston since I had ever been before. I searched for a place that would be in the heart of town so I wouldn't have to do much walking (because of... more
