  • It was great - better than a resort hotel I just visited.
  • Lounge chair in room needed a pole lamp for reading. Seemed a bit short of parking spaces but it looked like a new parking lot is under construction.

“It was great - bright, well decorated, clean. Staff was most friendly. Especially liked the exercise room with towels, paper towels and bottled water. Food in restaurant was good. Gift shop had 2 good books on Revolutionary War and Civil War walking tours in Charleston.”

  • Gorgeous room, excellent, accommodating staff.
  • There was no microwave in the room.

“11 out of 10! We would give the Marriott Charleston an 11 if we could. My wife and I spent a week in Charleston - our hotel was a wonderful aspect of our trip. The staff were professional, friendly, and uber-helpful. The room was wonderful - warm, inviting colors; material patterns that evoked the local area; and a comfortable bed and chairs. This hotel felt like a home, and we were always happy to return to the room after a day out sightseeing. Other Priceline users have denigrated the size of the bathroom - my wife and I had no problem with it and appreciated the granite top and multiple shelves in the vanity. The location on Lockwood at highway 17 made travel downtown, to Kiawah and the plantations in the west and to Sullivan's in the east a snap. Highly recommended!”

  • Hotel was clean with nice decor. Staff friendly and helpful.
  • Renovation of parking lot caused limited parking. Hard to find a space each time we came in and out.

“We really enjoyed our stay. Hotel had nice decor and rooms were clean and bed was very comfortable. The pool was not very large and it was sometimes hard to find a lounge chair. We would stay here again.”

  • Loved the 3rd floor outdoor bar - has great view of the area.
  • Lighting in bathroom was somewhat dim.

“Upon arrival, the hotel staff were courteous and very helpful with directions to local attractions. The room was spacious, the bed very comfortable (lots of feather pillows). I enjoyed the use of the mini-fridge, great for keeping beverages and other food items over a 5-day stay. The grounds were well-kept, the pool was crystal clear and the exercise room was fabulous! I highly recommend the Marriott for any stay, be it for leisure or business.”

  • Nicely appointed, large clean rooms, nice atmosphere, good terrrace for cocktails and music

  • The gym was excellent
  • The bathroom tub was in poor condition and the shower barely worked and was extremely noisy.

“Although the lobby and gym are nice, the room and hallway did not live up to the standard I expect from a Marriott. The hallway felt as if it had no air conditioning (and it was very very hot) the the bathroom was tiny and in poor condition. It appeared as though it had been partially renovated - the sink and countertop were excellent, however the tub was in poor condition, the grout and caulking were dirty, and the shower barely functioned. The bathroom fan was noisy but I don't think it helped clear the room at all. The view was also horrible - view over an ugly rooftop with construction supplies.”

  • I loved the Bath and Beauty Works shampoo, etc.
  • There was not a continental breakfast. I could not use the hotel dollies to deliver my own luggage to my room.

“This hotel is upscale, elegant and clean.”

  • The hotel had a very clean and neat appearance.
  • There were no umbrella tables at the pool to shield the sun

“The hotel had a very clean and neat appearance, lobby, front desk, elevators, corridors and rooms. Everything was clean and orderly. Guests were cordial and polite. And the area of town the hotel is located appears to be crime free and safe.”

  • Very clean and well decorated.
  • I liked it.

“The hotel location was not far from the exit, however, I had to drive to see the colonial city which was not far. I did not see that many palms, since the name, Palmetto. The hotel was beautifully designed and nicely decorated in yellow tones. The room was comfortable although my room was near the elevator doors and I could hear people exiting and elevators door chimes.”

  • Beautiful hotel lobby, very comfortable and quiet room. Nice view and a roof top lounge was just lovely.
  • Drinks were pricey.

“We had a lovely time here. It was a much nicer hotel than I thought it was going to be. I wouldn't change a thing. I'd love to go again!”
