Disliked: Amenities
The room was fantastic - spacious and well appointed. The bed was not very comfortable. The hotel has virtually no amenities, and it is currently being renovated. To be fair, the hotel notified me in advance that it was being renovated and that its award winning restaurant would be closed. While there is a cafe and second bar in the hotel, it was closed early evening, The construction noise started before 8:00 am and there was debris and dust floating around the outdoor spaces and entryway. The staff was very professionals and nice. And the location is great. But while under construction there should have been a significant discount to comparable properties.

We had a wonderful stay at Planters Inn while celebrating my mom’s 80th birthday in Charleston. The staff was exceptional, our courtyard-facing suite was spacious and comfortable, and the location was perfect. Having a great restaurant on-site was an added bonus. We would definitely stay here again!
