Are room was spotless and so was the rest of the property. Great location and there is a nice parking garage one block from the property that charges $24.00 per day. Breakfast was a bit underwhelming but sufficient. Coffee in the room was great and so were the free snacks and water. Room was also very quiet. Overall great experience. We would definitley stay here again.

I wish there was a Loutrel in every city I traveled to. Everything was wonderful. The beds and pillows were exceptional. Snacks and drinks in the room are included, unheard of in other hotels.

Super chic hotel located within walking distance of all things downtown Charleston! The added amenities, just enhanced the entire stay (wonderful drinks and appetizers every evening, cold water and iced tea station all day, amazing hot breakfast every morning); just awesome!
