The Spectator Hotel

I have never been in a hotel with better service! Every possible need is anticipated by staff. The warm care of guests was extraordinary. The butler service was a delight. Rooms are comfortable, spacious and the facility is well located. Honestly, I’d come back to Charleston just to stay here! Well done!

From the moment we arrived at The Spectator Hotel, it was clear we were in for an exceptional stay. The location is perfect—everything is within walking distance, making it easy to explore Charleston. The experience started with a warm greeting upon arrival, where we were provided with great information to ensure our visit was seamless. The Butler team is absolutely outstanding! They truly go above and beyond to take care of all your needs, always with a smile. Whether it was offering expert recommendations, or handling special requests, they were always ready to help with genuine enthusiasm. The level of service they provide made us feel incredibly pampered and well taken care of. At The Spectator, you truly have no needs—everything is handled with perfection! We highly recommend having a drink at the Speakeasy Bar. The food was delicious, and the drinks were unique and fantastic. The atmosphere was unforgettable. Breakfast was another highlight of our stay! The convenience of having such a yummy breakfast with a variety of delicious options delivered every morning was a game changer, and it was always something we looked forward to. Every member of the team went above and beyond to make sure our stay was perfect. We’ll definitely be back and will recommend The Spectator to everyone. Truly a top-notch experience!

We loved The Spectator. The room was fantastic, large, very comfortable, and the bathroom was luxe, with great local products and a fabulous robe. Housekeeping was great, and the butler service, with breakfast in the room each morning was much nicer and more relaxing than a restaurant. Lovely chic bar in the lobby. Everyone was super personable and accommodating. Excellent location for walking around town and around the corner from top restaurants on E Bay Street. Seamless experience!

My wife and I had a spectacular stay at the Spectator for our babymoon. Everything was carefully curated to exceed our expectations and provide a world-class level of service and comfort. We stayed 4 nights and utilized the valet service each day. The valet team was prompt and efficient each time. The Spectator resides in the heart of downtown Charleston. We found it easily walkable to the Market, shopping, downtown sight seeing, and many restaurants and bars. The butlers at the spectator also make this hotel specifically stand out among the rest. David checked us into the hotel and often checked in on us during the stay to ensure we had what we needed. Both Jim and Will also were exemplary, offering travel recommendations and ensuring we were enjoying our stay. We specifically enjoyed our babymoon package complete with several comfort items including a body pillow and sparkling juice champagne toast. Additionally, we enjoyed 5 star breakfast dining in room each morning that was prompt and delicious. Our turn down service each night consisted of a night cap chocolate liquor that was an added bonus. The amenities included were very nice. We enjoyed live jazz music our first night in the hotel bar and often came back to have cocktails/mocktails before dinner. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and were blown away by the level of service and accommodations. We would love to come back for a stay at the Spectator for our next visit back.

For a five-day anniversary trip, ...... I couldn't have dreamed of a more pleasing, culinary experience satisfying, entertaining, relaxing and educational time than Charleston, South Carolina. Our stay in the French Quarter, at The Spectator Hotel was as we expected, with friendly and helpful Butlers, receptionists and maids, all making sure we had all we needed, as well as providing us with valued suggestions for nearby restaurants, distance to walk towards historical edifices, tours, etc. We were welcomed with a light cocktail and sparkling wine, key-lime cookies and other treats in our room. Our breakfast was brought to our room daily, and the downstairs bar had jazz music on Thursday night, as well as books to read, newspapers, etc. We are considering revisiting The Spectator hotel when in Charleston. The staff there is a living-proof of Southern hospitalilty.
