Top Tips
- During major events like Spoleto Festival (late May-early June), secure your Charleston hotel reservation 60-90 days ahead to avoid rate increases and limited room options. Rates often rise within 48 hours prior to such events.
- Expect nightly parking rates of $25-$45 at most downtown Charleston hotels. A rideshare from Charleston International Airport (CHS) to downtown averages $15-$30 one way and may be more cost-effective for stays of two nights or longer.
- If staying during hurricane season (June 1-November 30), verify your hotel’s cancellation and severe weather policies. Check National Hurricane Center updates 72 hours before arrival for local advisories.
- Historic Charleston inns may lack step-free access and elevators. Request accessible room specifics in writing, confirming step-free routes and door widths, especially in 18th- or 19th-century buildings.
- Rooms facing away from Upper King Street and Market Street, or on higher floors, can reduce street noise on busy weekend evenings. Specify your preference when booking to help ensure a quieter stay.
- Charleston tap water meets potable standards, but check local government or county websites for boil-water advisories on arrival, especially if there has been severe weather.
- Most boutique hotels in Charleston do not include breakfast in the nightly rate. Plan to spend $12-$20 per person at a local café or the hotel restaurant.
- Confirm Wi-Fi speed (in Mbps) with your hotel before relying on it for remote work. Pack a 4G or 5G hotspot as a backup, especially in smaller or historic inns where business-grade connectivity is not guaranteed.
- Contact independent and boutique hotels directly to inquire about possible waivers for parking, breakfast, or other fees with direct booking. Obtain written confirmation of any waived fees before your arrival.
