Top Washington Square Hotel Reviews

The Restoration

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is fabulous! We ended up booking it last minute because we left the original one we booked; it was in awful condition, and we walked into The Restoration and felt like we were at home. We were greeted by the most amazing woman (I am so sorry, her name slipped my memory); she gave us compassion and understanding for what my daughter and I just went through and reassured us our stay at The Restortation would be wonderful. It sure was! The room is so clean, the decor is very well done, the bed is so comfortable (the kind of comfort that you don't want to get out of bed!), and the best part is you wake up to the most adorable basket of yummy breakfast treats to help you get motivated for your day. Everyone working there is helpful, friendly, and makes you feel welcomed and at home. It is walking distance to the college, so I plan on making this my home away from home for the next 4 years when I visit my daughter at school. I cannot say enough great things about this hotel; book it! You will fall in love!"

Emeline

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed at Hotel Emeline to celebrate our anniversary, and it exceeded every expectation. The hotel is beautiful, impeccably clean, and perfectly located for exploring Charleston on foot. Our room was elegant, the bathroom was gorgeous (even down to the Kohler fixtures), and the bed was one of the most comfortable we’ve ever slept in—we looked forward to coming back to it every evening after exploring the city. What truly sets this hotel apart, though, is the people. Every employee we encountered embodied genuine Southern hospitality. From the thoughtful check-in experience to the friendly housekeeping staff and bartenders who made us feel like regulars, the service was consistently exceptional. The hotel even provides thoughtful touches like complimentary reusable glass water bottles for guests to take while exploring the city and drink vouchers for their sister property. The moment that made us lifelong fans happened after checkout. I accidentally left my jacket in the lobby and didn’t realize it until we were already at the airport. We called expecting to pay to have it shipped home, but instead, a staff member personally drove my jacket to the airport—nearly a 30-minute drive—so I could have it before our flight. She even refused to accept a tip. That level of kindness and care is something you simply don’t see anymore. Hotel Emeline made our anniversary feel truly special, and we’ll absolutely stay here again the next time we’re in Charleston."

The Palmetto Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The Palmetto is a beautiful hotel. Our room was comfortable, the bathroom had an amazing shower and was spacious. The staff were friendly and attentive. The Continental breakfast was delicious. The location is perfect. Within walking distance to many attractions, restaurants and retail shops. Things to be aware of are there is not a dresser for clothes in the room, but there is an armoire for hanging clothes. Also, there is not pool or fitness center in the hotel. They do offer free passes to a gym a few blocks away, which was nice. Overall a wonderful hotel and I would definitely recommend it."
