This hotel was wonderful! One of the best I’ve ever stayed at in my travels. The bar was beautiful with delicious cocktails. A nightly aperitif was in our room every evening when we got back from our adventures. Chocolate “rocks” by the front door for snacking. Complementary snacks and non alcoholic drinks in the mini bar. Delicious breakfast in our room provided every day. And service was amazing! Do yourself a favor and stay here.

I would stay in this hotel over and over again. You will feel a bit pampered in the fact they have snacks in the room, turn down service with chocolates at night, a butler that is a wealth of information! The location is absolutely perfect. We debated on getting a car but we were able to walk everywhere. We took an u er yo folly beach for the day which was perfect. (2we heard they the Uber drivers don't like yo go to folly on the weekends but on a Tuesday morning there was no traffix

Great location and walkable to many great spots, dining and shopping. The only thing I didn’t love is we arrived after 11pm and the area was dead and the front door of hotel was locked - I thought I was in the wrong location. However I called the hotel and a lovely staff member seamlessly checked us in and valet parked our car. Tha hotel has wonder guest amenities like great snacks in room and I even noticed diapers in the lobby restrooom for families with children - super thoughtful!
