I would 100% recommend this hotel to anyone staying in Charleston. The service was amazing and the amenities were great. My daughter and I went to Charleston for a 3 day vacay and the Spectator was a gem. Staff and breakfast were great. Lobby and lounge was very pretty. I liked that you needed key to use elevator, not everyone does this today and it def is a bit more security for guests. Close to king street and walkable to college, rainbow row and many other attractions. We chose to park our rental car less than a block away which was half the price of hotel valet just an fyi…I will def be staying here again asap.
