Reviews for Planters Inn
Elegant old hotel with maintenance challenges
Our room was spacious and should have been quiet, but the heating sounded like a Boeing 737 every time it turned on. Ironically, it produced no heat (Charleston was cold during our stay). After we complained an employee showed up promptly to probe inside the ventilation grill. He turned off the chiller, generating welcome heat and unwelcome black stuff that soiled the rug and chair. He vacuumed it up and we went to dinner (at the mediocre, overpriced Peninsula Grill in the hotel). On our return we found more black and smeary effusions all over. Old hotels often have these problems...but the front desk staff were dismissive and nonresponsive and almost rude. BTW, the room also had its one closet very inconveniently located in the bathroom. Pluses were good wifi and Illy coffee in the room, but overall the hotel offered low value for the money.

A convenient and elegant hotel for a family or couples getaway.
The Planters Inn was a perfect location for my daughter and I to share a weekend getaway. The location was convenient to our activities. The hotel was clean and well-kept. The staff were polite and well-trained. The rooms were large and well-appointed.

A must stay in Charleston!
The personalized attention was great and the beds are so comfortable! Great location, we walked everywhere! There is plenty of restaurants and shopping around. We ate at their Peninsula Grill and Benne's restaurants which both my husband and I loved. After dinner at Peninsula Grill we had cake and coffee at Benne's and it was magical to sit in their courtyard, it was a beautiful stay. We were traveling with our 6 month old and everyone at the hotel was so lovely and I mean EVERYONE. Nicola, Ben and Cathleen did an amazing job and went above and beyond to make our trip unforgettable. Thank you Planters Inn for a very special Birthday weekend I'll always cherish. Can't wait for next time!

A great hotel with great staff.
The hotel was wonderful and in a good location. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive. The restaurant was nice and the food great. The room was very nice and quite, even though I was on the street level. My only complaint was the slow wifi.

Looking forward to a return visit!
Thoroughly enjoyed our 3 night stay at the Planters Inn. We had a great room with a sitting/work area, very comfy bed and nice bathroom. Can't beat the location, which is right next to the market, walking distance to the waterfront and shopping district, staff was super friendly. One very minor issue is the spotty wifi but didn't effect our stay at all. Can't wait to visit Charleston and The Planters Inn again.

Our visit to the Planters Inn last week was superb, as always. Thanks, Steve Boyd, for taking such good care of us when we arrived so early in the morning. Thanks, too, to everyone at the inn for making us feel at home. We're already looking forward to our next visit!
