Charleston hotels near Confederate Museum

Cons: Can seem a bit stuffy depending on clientele, but that's who it's for

Cons: We had air conditioning problems that repeatedly left the room without cooling in 90 degree weather.

Cons: AC was not cool enough. No coffe or tea makers in room nor complimentary coffee offered in lobby in the morning. A lot of rooms overlook brick 4 story parking garage.

Cons: - Meals cost prohibitive

Cons: The spa service is sub-standard, and over-priced. Therapists were not attentive to requests, and hearing complaints about their job because they didn't receive benefits, was unsettling. Urban Nirvana in Charleston offers the best service. Consider opting for their spa at Wentworth Mansion. The service and value trump Charleston Place, any day. Also the spa charged a 20% tip without notifying me, and overcharged for the services rendered. The spa therapists aren't Belmond Charleston Place employees, and are quick in letting you know that.

Cons: We did order coffee by the poolside that took quite awhile for room service to get to us, after waiting for about half an hour at the pool bar, we were charged about $17 for a small French press. It didn't seem worth the wait or price for a couple cups of coffee, and discouraged us from ordering room service the rest of the trip. But a small hickup in an overall amazing stay at the Belmond.

Cons: It was perfect and exceeded my expectations! There was nothing not to like! I'd stay there again and again!

Cons: Nothing

Cons: At times very busy, crowded.

Cons: The traffic noise was very loud throughout the night

Cons: High price tag.

Cons: On the second floor, we could hear the footsteps of the patrons above us as we were trying to sleep.

Cons: Room was not ready at time of check it

Cons: We stayed in the residence area, these were the only rooms back when we stayed frequently from 2010 to 2015. This older part of the hotel has gone down hill, it used to be awesome, the best place in Charleston. I suspect the new hotel tower is great, but I found our room a bit disappointing. The water pressure was poor, hard to rinse shampoo from your hair and it took forever to get hot water up to the room. We will definitely stay in the newer rooms next time.

Cons: Smelled like smoke at each of the entrances. The staff at the front desk was not very friendly.

Cons: There was no blackout curtain for the window only a sheer curtain. Also, the lighting in the room was very poor, and there was no vent in the bathroom

Cons: January 5 was a cold night and the room was chilly with no extra blankets, and the thermostat didn't seem to help. The cost for parking in the adjacent garage seems a bit excessive two half days and one night $17. Kind of like the golf course with $5 green fees and $50 golf balls.

Cons: Small Bathroom

Cons: They upgraded our room because they didn't have the original room we booked upon arrival. We were staying 5 days. after two days they kicked us out of the upgraded room and moved us to a room half the size saying that the room they upgraded us to was already booked beyond our current stay. This put a damper on the remainder of our stay at the hotel due to the room being a little too small for two people Also the other guest in the hotel that had business meetings were very rude and arrogant and continually blocked the top of the stairways coming up to the main lobby.

Cons: Small bathrooms. Comfortable but not luxurious. With two double beds in the room, you couldn't open the bathroom door fully. That was pretty ridiculous to have to enter sideways.

Cons: Lack of air flow in the bathroom.

Cons: Liked it all.

Cons: Older small bathroom A/C that made loud noises randomly. This is not a modern hotel...but that's not all bad.

Cons: Elevators are 1920s size so there small with luggage but the hotel is gorgeous and embodies the Charleston spirit

Cons: A bit tired, could use the next update. Will definitely stay again.

Cons: The hotel is dated and worn out. The rooms are small and very old. The bathroom is only large enough for one person and the plumbing is ancient. The hotel is overpriced for what you get. The manager was not at all accommodating when we didn't get the type of room we booked. I would never stay at this hotel again.

Cons: No refrigerator

Cons: Parking garage is not attached to hotel, if using self park, must walk 1/2 block. Room decor is tasteful but 20 years old and while clean, is showing it's age ( I imagine this is the reason for lower rates). Bathrooms are extremely small.

Cons: No fridge in the room Parking $16 a day

Cons: TV did not work initially, but was quickly fixed Toilet did not fill initially, but guest was able to fix overly expensive room rates airport shuttle forgot to pick us up

Cons: Paying for parking, no coffee in lobby, no free breakfast

Cons: The rooms where old. Bathroom was the size of a closet. Front desk staff was rude.

Cons: Not being under mask requirements

Cons: The hotel is very noisy at night due to screaming and honking of horns on the main road-and I was on the 7th floor. I wish the hotel had a free continental breakfast and that you did not have to walk a block to get to the hotel parking, which is the city garage.

Cons: Bathroom was tight but clean.

Cons: My only complaint would be that the parking is a little hard to find, but it is very secure and was a small issue, nothing to worry about.

Cons: Hallways have some deferred maintenance.

Cons: The bathroom we had was very small and reminded me of a cruise ship but we were only there for two nights so it was not a big deal with my daughter.

Cons: Not worth the price. Very expensive rooms

Cons: Restaurant and Bar in hotel I would not recommend Service poor, house wine limited and poor, do not waste your time there are excellent places right out the door No mooring coffee available in the lobby or at the bar. Was told it would be set up by 6am, but both days nothing between 530-700am

Cons: Beds are tiny, had double queen room and they are just a size bigger than a twin.

Cons: Bathroom should had been cleaner, hair on floor Bed not comfortable

Cons: Broken luggage racks (2) in room, shower water backs up in tub, immediately three inches to stand in while showering

Cons: No complaints! Would love to stay here again

Cons: paper coffee cups in room, walls were a little thin. the couple next to us were loud at all hours of the night. did not enjoy hearing them having sex!

Cons: N/A

Cons: CONSTRUCTION GOING ON OUTSIDE THE BUILDING

Cons: Wish we could have stayed longer!

Cons: Wished the room had a small refrigerator to store leftovers from the great restaurants nearby.

Cons: Size of room could limit longer stays

Cons: Housekeeping staff tried entering our room at 8:30 am (check outs not until 11, and we had previously requested a late checkout of noon). She knocked one time, lightly. We didn’t even get a chance to get up from bed, get decent and answer the door before she was already entering. This is not ok. Also, upon arrival the front desk staff and manager were conversations amongst themselves, not even greeting us or talking to us. Just amongst each other and getting us checked in. No welcome words or conversation. Like we were an inconvenience to their conversation.

Cons: Checking in did not go well. We arrived at 1:30 and were told the room was not ready and we should come back in an hour. We came back at 3:30 and the room was still not ready. Then when we got to our room, they lost our bag tag and it took over an hour to bring our bags to the room. We also didn't get the king size bed, but instead two doubles. They weren't very apologetic about it all either. They charged me $0.50 for a call to the 1-877 help number for wifi issues. Parking wasn't great either.

Cons: I couldn't stay longer. This is the best hotel I the peninsula .

Cons: Difficult to check in as no place to park.....rooms small for price.....no refrigerator......limited counter space in bathroom

Cons: Surprisingly the staff wasn't very friendly or helpful. They seems very aloof.

Cons: Small room with double beds, very loud

Cons: rooms too small; no counter space in bathroom

Cons: While the location is excellent, and the hotel lobby & courtyard are visually appealing, the rooms leave much to be desired. Even with a balcony view, the room was a bit dark and dreary. Our tub did not drain for several hours after each use (but was fixed by a friendly staff member a few hours after I called the problem in. They gave us a room down the hall to use in the meantime). The sink handle in the new room broke and the water ran constantly. The walls are thin and you can hear all conversations. The guest service is hit or miss. We had great interactions with some of the staff who were both pleasant and accommodating, and other experiences with staff who were quite the opposite. Overall, I’d choose this hotel again for location alone, but if you’re going to spend a lot of time in your room, your money would be best spent elsewhere.

Cons: Only small complaint I have was the pillows. They were fluffy until you laid on them, then they became flat and hard.

Cons: The ventilation in the room was poor. The bathroom smelled like cigarettes likely coming from a neighboring room or one below. The mattresses are worn out and requiring the guest to remember to schedule house keeping the night before doesn’t seem like much of a service. It was also disappointing to find out that the only place to park at the hotel was the parking garage behind the hotel which runs you about $20 per day and isn’t comped by the hotel. Overall the hotel seems very elegant when you enter the lobby, but other than the main floor everything else is worn out and in need of an update. The value of the suite level room didn’t match the price paid.

Cons: The pillows were too soft for me and all the same so there wasn't an option to switch out - that would be my only complaint!

Cons: Parking was limited and expensive. The price per night was a little on the high end for the size of the room.

Cons: As with a lot of nice hotels in the Charleston area, there was a big wedding party in the hotel lobby who occupied the entire area of the lobby and their one restaurant during the ceremony so it was difficult to get any food or refreshment at the hotel during that timeframe.

Cons: Would have preferred a fridge in room but not totally necessary. We had a great time so really nothing negative!

Cons: What I did NOT like was once a person booked through Kayak, the hotel would not help you with your room. I called the hotel prior to arrival to make sure I had a king sized bed as I requested but the hotel refused to assist me since I did not book directly with them. So although I again requested a king size bed for my wife and I, and for our married friends as well, through the Kayak booking agency - neither of us had a king sized bed but instead two double beds! And the beds were like marshmallows so you sink in them. While that may be fun for some but many of us like support under our backs. I informed the hotel of my displeasure and request for change; I was "yes'd" but received no change. So I now assume that the most undesireable rooms are avaialble on Kayak because it would lead to toomuch aggravation for the hotel to try to get the normal rate for them.

Cons: The bathroom doors are sliding & did not give the feeling of full privacy. The room was not spacious but very comfortable.

Cons: I hated the sliding door to the bathroom. It didn't offer much privacy but I find many boutique hotels favor them these days.

Cons: Renovation construction going on. Ask before booking to ensure completed.

Cons: Rooms are on the small side as are the bathrooms. Our room was on the second floor and all we could see was scaffolding outside our window. The valet staff was a little inattentive.

Cons: The room was not very comfortable or easy to move around in . Bath was very outdated and not easy to use. Not very competitive or modern

Cons: Breakfast and parking not included

Cons: There was nothing we didn't like. Great place!

Cons: The rooms are extremely small, which is typical in older hotels. Our room location was awful, which I didn't realize until it was too late (our kids were in bed and falling asleep). We were right next to the elevator bay, and we could hear people coming and going (very LOUDLY) all night long. Also, if you are given a room adjacent to King Street and you are staying over a weekend, you might want to switch to the other side of the hotel. There was a huge party (at the art museum, I think) and the DJ music was vibrating our room until past 10 p.m. This won't be a problem for you if you are out late and without kids, but it was a rough night for us.

Cons: Poor staff. Tried to charge me $100 for 8 place settings for the extra suite we paid for. We had paid for 5 rooms and a parlor suite and told front desk three times we needed place settings. We told no problem before I booked and the morning of the event. Then a hour before the event the banquet manager personally comes to the room and says he needs $100 before he can bring up the dishes.

Cons: The bathroom was a bit snug. Price was high, but comparable for other hotels in the historic area.

Cons: Breakfast, which includes buffet and fresh made omelettes, etc., is not included in price of not-inexpensive room, as one expects from a Holiday Inn.

Cons: Just a bit too far to walk to dinner in the evening but the trolley is easily accessible.

Cons: Lost my bags didn't comp my night free . Took over an hour to recover my lost bags

Cons: There was CONSTRUCTION that was not noted ANYWHERE on the website. I was awoken BEFORE am by the sounds of cranes and massive power drills. Then we tried to enjoy the pool where we were greeted by over 25 creepy construction workers who made us so uncomfortable as we attempted to tan amidst the ungodly loud sounds of construction. The staff couldn't care less! There had no water in the lobby in the morning only coffee, asked staff for water and they told me j could buy it!? So basically I paid almost $200 to have the WORST night EVERE

Cons: Shower was gross and in need of replacement. No microwave in rooms. Room HVAC inconsistent, Thermostat has bright display that stays on all night next to the bed.
