Where does one begin to describe the epitome of customer service with a side of casual elegance and classic southern charm? With the staff, of course! Bob, Kristen, Jose, Kim and Tyler, all contributed to a memorable stay. We thank all of you for making our repeat, though all to brief, stay, a wonderful experience. We love this hotel. The rooms are beautiful and spacious. The tiny details, from the card that encases your room keys to the chocolates at turndown, thoughtfulness abounds. Breakfast is perfect, Tea Time is terrific and Cookies between 8-10pm is just adorable. We can’t wait to go back!!

From the moment I arrived at The French Quarter Inn I felt that this was a special hotel. Every single staff member I interacted with was amazing, they really are completely motivated to make sure your stay is incredible. Bob, Toby, and Kimberly were helpful, nice, and fun to talk to. Jose and Ben at valet were always a step ahead on service. The location is elite. Walking distance to some of the best restaurants in Charleston. Plus sites and things to do. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and quiet. Slept soundly each night. My favorite part of the stay was being in the lobby in the afternoon and evening to enjoy the wine/cheese and milk/cookies. It was very easy to chat with other guests and the staff which made the atmosphere extremely comfortable and inviting. There's no doubt we'll be back to this hotel and it's likely the meausuring stick that i'll compare future hotels to.

We all loved this Inn! I would go back there again if I visited Charleston. The decor, professional and feiendly staff were so refreshing. I slept like a baby on their mattress and got to choose the softness of my pillow. The Lobby was gorgeous and inviting. The candy bar made it even better. The complimentary breakfast was delicious. Coffee and tea all day long were available. Also, lemonade and ice tea. The Inn was immaculate. The Market and many restaurants were within walking distance. We all agreed we had one of the best vacations ever.

**⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Perfect Charleston Gem - French Quarter Inn** I just returned from an absolutely wonderful stay at the French Quarter Inn in Charleston, and I can't recommend it highly enough! This boutique hotel truly exceeded all my expectations. **Location & Accessibility**: The location is simply unbeatable - nestled right in the heart of Charleston's historic district, you're literally steps away from all the main attractions, incredible restaurants, and charming cobblestone streets. Getting around town was a breeze, and I loved that the hotel offers complimentary bike access. There's nothing quite like cycling through Charleston's tree-lined streets at your own pace! **Thoughtful Amenities**: The daily wine and cheese reception at 5 PM was such a delightful touch - it's the perfect way to unwind after a day of exploring and meet fellow travelers. And those warm cookies every evening? Pure magic! These little touches really made it feel like a home away from home. **Comfort & Atmosphere**: Despite being in the bustling heart of the city, my room was remarkably quiet and peaceful. The cleanliness was impeccable, and every detail was thoughtfully appointed. The hotel strikes that perfect balance between elegant sophistication and cozy comfort. **Outstanding Staff**: The staff deserves special recognition - they were genuinely lovely, attentive, and went out of their way to make sure every aspect of my stay was perfect. Their local recommendations were spot-on! The French Quarter Inn captures everything magical about Charleston hospitality. I'm already planning my return visit!

I am a former chef and am now a catering director at a private country club. Being extremely picky and wanting the best possible accommodations and food - we were nothing but happy with French Quarter Inn!

My wife and I stayed at the French Quarter Inn on a Monday and Tuesday evening. As our second visit to Charleston, we wanted to enjoy the Battery area history and restaurants for a couple days. French Quarter Inn was fantastic! The staff really set the stage for a memorable and rejuvenating visit. Charleston really is a unique and wonderful city, and I highly recommend the French Quarter Inn for helping us take a little of Charleston with us.
