We had a great stay! Great customer service
Jaime Nicole
We stayed at the Spectator for a long weekend and loved it. It is centrally located within walking distance of many city highlights. The staff was courteous and helpful. The rooms were clean and the bed was so comfy. The complimentary refills of the minibar was a nice touch, too. Everything was great.
Jennifer
This was our first time in a luxury hotel like this. Arrival and check in was smooth with no issues. We were offered a welcome cocktail which was a nice touch after traveling on the highway all day in the heat of summer. We were assigned a butler. David was actually the main one to serve us for most of our stay. Helped get us and our luggage to our room. Explained how everything is at the hotel. He even gave us a good dinner suggestion on our first night in town. They offer free bicycle rentals, umbrellas to borrow if needed, complimentary in room beverages and snacks restocked as needed. Turn down service was nice with a sweet cordial. Gourmet Continental breakfast that you get to choose each day brought right to your room. The portions were exceptional. We also had the pleasure of having Michelle serve us a few times and one day she packed us extra snacks to take on our outing. We really enjoyed the speakeasy style bar and lounge in the hotel. The bar tender Alan makes some great cocktails and bar bites. The hospitality of all staff members was above and beyond. The cleanliness of our room was superb. Everything was so amazing that it was like the comfort of being in my own home. Made for a very romantic week for my husband and I. Highly recommend this hotel and we will definitely consider it again when we visit Charleston in the future.

I’ve stayed with my wife and children, and with my wife in pretty exceptional places in New York, Miami, LA, Chicago, Paris, Rome, you name it. This place is where the buck stops…service remarkable… people warm, kind, exceptional. Location cannot be beat if you’re looking for a one of a kind location in charlotte stay here….
Laurie
We stayed overnight at The Spectator for a quick trip to Charleston. Fantastic location just a few blocks from Waterfront Park, close to King Street and great shopping. Fast valet service, experienced butlers and comfortable, spacious rooms. The breakfast in bed was a lovely finish to our stay. Would definitely stay here again.
Kenneth
Wow! Excellence personified. 5 star service, Amazing staff, especially Michelle our butler and Wade, the valet crew, front desk welcome cocktail, the welcome bottle of wine and turn down service with the tiramisu and bushwhacker nightcap, the well thought out free snacks, and soft drinks. Great location. We love boutique hotels and Charleston is full of them. The Spectator exceeded our expectations and made it hard to try any place else the next time we visit…and we will be back. Thanks to everyone who made our trip very special. Continued success!
Lawrence
Staff were incredibly helpful
Michael

Amit
Amazing hospitality and staff. Breakfast in room was amazing especially for us who want to enjoy the last morning start.
Property is very clean and well kept. The location is perfectly situated for all kinds of activities.
We wish other hotels would offer the same

Great experience as always. Thank you!
Noel
Beautifully appointed room, clean and spacious bathroom with high end fittings and toiletries. A/C worked very well. Mini bar snacks and drinks were a plus, as was room service breakfast. We really enjoyed our stay and will be back!
Nancy
I stayed here last year and the staff and hotel could not have been any better. I came back a year later and, again, the staff was unbelievable. Friendly, helpful and professional. I did feel that the hotel showed wear since my last visit. It was still wonderful but if I’m being honest it went from pristine to very nice. Locations is Perfect.
Lucas
Amazing staff and service made our son's birthday celebration special and was unexpected as we'd mentioned the trip was for his birthday to our butler upon arrival and he asked what our visit entailed to help with reservations or directions to anything and they sent us a small birthday cake complete with balloons and a note from the hotel, which really surprised and delighted all of us in how they'd gone above and beyond here.
The breakfast delivery to the room that's included here was also wonderful and always on time and correct with the orders.
The device cleaner and noise machine were great perks as well.
Definitely recommend this hotel!

Heather
This is the 4th or 5th time staying here. The staff is always amazing. They go above and beyond. Girl’s trip, romantic trip - it is the perfect hotel and location. There are many wonderful options in CHS - this is one I will continue to return to and share with family and friends.
Evan
The Butler staff was amazing and we loved our stay. Highly recommend The Spectator to anyone visiting Charleston!
Ray
Great location and excellent breakfast!
Ryan
Top tier service from the front desk to the valet to the maintenance staff. One of the best overall experiences I've had from a service perspective and the hotel is within walking distance to all the restaurants and shopping in the downtown Charleston.
Carolin
The service was outstanding, the butler service is impeccable and the complementary breakfast service was amazing. The rooms are very well equipped and there are free snacks etc.
Regarding the amenities I did not feel though that this was a five start hotel. Outside of the small entry lobby/ bar there is no space to use. The gym can be utilized in a hotel around the corner, but it’s small. We were expecting some rooftop terrace or special experience for a five star. For a downtown city hotel it gives you what you need but seems too expensive for me with the sole focus on the room itself.

It's a spectacular hotel in all means. Location, cleanliness, staff, meals. Caring for all the smallest detail you can think of, one of my favorite hotels i have been to.
The butler touch was significantly special, thank you all at the hotel for your thoughtfulness, caring and hospitality. We enjoyed it so much. Highly recommended.

Julie

Lou
What an amazing anniversary celebration we were treated to at the Spectator! So very conveniently located in historic Charleston!
Staff was incredibly kind and attentive. From a beautiful in room breakfast, turn down room service with wine and champagne, to romantic craft cocktails at the hotel bar at night, super butler services from lovely Michelle and David, we were so well cared for! And Toby!! Toby gave us a smile at the end of our stay. We will make this an annual trip to the Spectator!

Quality breakfast from a menu, not a typical hotel buffet. Great staff, comfortable room. Walkable to everything in the historic area; steps to the market. A go to place for us n Charleston.
Rachel
Fantastic stay at the Spectator. The front desk staff made check in very easy and the butler service was very helpful — our butler retrieved forgotten luggage and flowers from our car and brought it directly to our rooms.
Lisa
Very nice hotel. Walking distance to lots of shopping and restaurants. Breakfast in the room was great every morning. Very friendly staff. Would stay again.
Amy
Great location! Loved everything about it. From 1 to 10, give a 10 ranking. Recommend and will return.
Dayton
Breakfast ordered from menu delivered to room or lobby bar area. A real breakfast, not a standard buffet. Great location - walk to restaurants and attractions next to market area. Excellent staff, nice rooms. Go to place for us.
Sarah

Linda
The breakfasts were very nice. A variety of styles form full to fruit. The “butler” they push so hard just seems to be a normal hotels room service. Call the desk and they send someone up. Our bathroom was very minimal. A single sink with no vanity top space. We were giving an assisted room. No idea if that made a difference. The room was fairly plain. They have a bar they promote, but we normally ended up across the street at a very popular bar. The location is good. No one helped us bring in our luggage. We drug it up the steps ourselves. For the money, I could not recommend this hotel. I would not pick it next time. I’m surprised it is rated in the top 4 hotels in the city.
sandra
Exceptional stay. Very comfortable with outstanding service and amenities. Staff is incredible.
Bekir
Very friendly staff, in the middle of all attractions, close to everything, very spacious and luxury rooms. No restaurant at the hotel, the gym next door is average. But lots of great resturants around the hotel at walking distance..
Laurie
Beautiful boutique hotel with top notch service, comfortable well appointed rooms and excellent morning breakfast. We had to leave early one morning for a college visit and the staff had our breakfast ready by 6:30 am with our car waiting for us right outside the door. Another day, we headed to the beach and the staff put together beach gear for us that included towels, chairs and an umbrella. We loved the cereal area of the hotel as well. So much within a short walk.
Lisa
Amazing in every aspect!
Pamela
The hotel was clean. The room was spacious. We had a room with two double beds. The bathroom is nice, spa like with heated towels. The location was excellent by as it was in walking distance of notable restaurants, the marketplace and many other attractions. The only thing to note is that the hotel has a bar but no restaurant. Breakfast is delivered to the room each morning. You have to go out for lunch and dinner. The staff was very accommodating.

Breakfast was nice, complimentary and served at the desired time each morning. Each of the butlers had their own personality and were pleasurable.

I recently stayed at The Spectator Hotel and it was an absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish.
The hotel itself is lovely and full of charm. The décor feels timeless and elegant, and the smoky, mirrored bar creates a warm, masculine ambiance that’s both sophisticated and inviting. It’s the perfect place to unwind in the evening, and the drinks are truly delicious—expertly crafted and memorable.
What truly sets this hotel apart, however, is the staff. The butlers and front desk team go above and beyond to see to your every need. Their attention to detail and genuine warmth make you feel completely cared for. Each morning, breakfast is delivered to your room by a butler who is not only gracious and professional but also happy to regale you with details about the city or chat about your plans for the day. That personal touch makes all the difference.
Between the beautiful setting, exceptional service, and thoughtful hospitality, this was a standout stay. I would return in a heartbeat.

Chuck and Daryll were a breath of fresh air. They both went above and beyond to make sure my husband and I had what we needed. Chuck took the time to get to know what type of restaurant we were looking for and then made dining suggestions. I do not drink caffeinated beverages. They both made sure I had decaf tea choices in the room. Which was so thoughtful. During our stay we saw Daryll more and he was so friendly and pleasant. He definitely added to the enjoyment of our getaway. The room was kept immaculate and the staff in the lobby and bar were always very friendly and professional. We will both be recommending this establishment to others and hope to visit again in the future.

Sooo excellent. Best service hotel in the industry. 5 stars

The butler service staff were all absolutely wonderful and no detail went unnoticed by the team. The staff, amenities, aesthetics, the “5 star” Craft Bar, and drink mixologists all make this hotel one of my favorite!
Carole
Everything about this hotel was fabulous. Staff, rooms, beds,cleanliness,breakfast and turn down service were top notch.
Melissa
I really can’t shut up about how great this hotel is. All staff at every level was superior. All the extras and butler service were amazing.
John
Excellent 5 star hotel
Erica L
Outstanding in every way. Service better than in the Four Seasons, Montage, etc. They even proactively made us snack bags for a day out! Jim is the absolute best. Bar is great too! Don’t miss the Silence of the Yams cocktail. Sounds weird, but is so fantastic we went back twice! Very well balanced and not overly sweet.
Anthony
The service was perfect. I truly enjoyed this hotel and its location. The butlers were more than helpful and the front staff was pleasant and so accommodating. The bar was fun and the man who runs it is such a pleasant and skilled drink maker. Loved this trip.
Stephanie
From the moment we arrived until we departed, the staff and service were impeccable. Every extra detail made to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable was greatly appreciated. The bed was extremely comfortable! Having a complimentary mini-bar was very nice after a long day of touring Charleston. Couldn’t have asked for a more pleasant experience.
Mary L
Staff and amenities were perfect for us. My only negative comment, is that there were a few places in the shower that had small amounts of mildew. Those need to be taken care of.
Maria
The breakfast and the bed mattress could be better. The hotel is beautiful and service was outstanding.
SARAH
Public rooms are very impressive with lots of marble and comfotable seating. Staff at the front desk is super nice and helpful. Breakfast is well stocked with good hours. Parking was free, which was a nice perk. The location is convenient to Plaza Independecia which is a great public space to visit. Good restaurant selection nearby and it all feels very safe. To get into your room requires downloading an app. There are no room keys. Communicating with the hotel staff is easiest using WhatsApp.
The room was pretty bare bones for $250 a night. Towels were thin and did not include washcloths. Getting fresh towels was not easy. No Kleenex in the room except a tiny 3-tissue pack that was not replaced after we used the first one on Day 1. I couldn't get an iron brought to the room. Only option was to pay for the staff to press my clothes. I never did find the price schedule for that and just went out wrinkled. Pillows were very hard and uncomfortable but the bed was fine and the linens were decent and clean.
This hotel was overall adequate and clean, which is my top priority. Public spaces are luxurious but the standard rooms aren't anything special. Elevators are super fast which was really nice as we have stayed at far more expensive places that had terrible elevator service. This seems like a convention hotel with lots of groups staying here.

This “boutique” hotel was spectacular, all around! The staff went out of their way on so many levels. Immaculate room, over-the-top amenities, concierge was great, and with a great location . . . Book it!
Mark
Great location, service and hotel. This was our first time in Charleston and I would recommend staying here to anyone visiting town. The hotel decor is welcoming and the rooms are very clean. The standout was the personalized service and attention to detail the staff made during each interaction. Standouts were the reception with Wade and breakfast service in the bar with Darrel! Thank you for making us feel so welcomed.
Lisa
Wonderful staff, great bar, good location
Jeffrey

Wonderful stay. Amazing staff, butler service was a nice bonus, nice touches in room with snacks and drinks , walkable all over, comfortable beds. Breakfast straight to room every morning included! Would 100% stay again
Greg
Our first time to Charleston and loved our stay at The Spectator. The staff is excellent here and the room and bath were large and stocked with complimentary extras daily from snacks to coffee and soft drinks you don't see in high end hotels or most anywhere for that matter. The bar is lively and fun for that nightcap.
Patricia
Lobby bar was wonderful. Room was generously sized and the amenities were thoughtful and of a good variety
Jonathan
Staff was exceptional, friendly…like staying at a friends house!

Very impressed with the Southern hospitality at The Spectator hotel. Our butler Jim was very attentive to detail and our needs. He was always willing to assist and recommend. The staff and other butlers were very hospitable and welcoming. The hotel was close to the Market and various scenic sites and restaurants in the area. The 20's cocktail bar was always the place to be to have a drink before your night out !!!!
Thank you Spectator Team !!!!

Treated like royalty from the moment you pull up to the door. Professional , warm staff in every department. As an avid travelers very few places make you feel the way The Spectator Hotel does . If you want an incredible experience visiting Charleston, SC , I advise you to place yourself in the professional hands of The Spectator. Every staff member has unlimited ideas of must sees through the city and all the inside on hidden gems to visit. Clean , professional, and inviting. We will be returning.

Kimberly
This hotel is just stunning, from check in to check out, everything was just perfect. So many little extras, absolutely seen and loved. Was a wonderful stay.
Melody
Luxe family retreat in the heart of Charleston
The Spectator was probably the best hotel I have stayed at, even better than The Broadmoor. The service was on point...we were greeted by a butler (Wil) who gave us every bit of information we could want about our stay in Charleston, and his suggestions did not disappoint. We were greeted with a cocktail for my husband and I, mocktails for the girls, plus chocolates, and there was a bottle of wine AND a full, complimentary mini bar with local snacks and sodas and water.
The beds were very comfortable, the room was clean and they had umbrellas available at the door, which were definitely needed. It's located in the French Quarter. Tons of restaurants and attractions around. We liked Magnolias and O Bar.
If we come back to Charleston I would be thrilled to stay there again. The VIP deal Hotels.com offered ended up being way more generous than I had expected. The wonderful Spectator staff members are why.
