I just had a perfect trip to Charleston, part of which is due to the Harbour View Inn. What a wonderful hotel. The staff is exceptionally friendly and helpful. Without the assistance of one staff member, we would not have gotten our delayed luggage until the next day. There are so many special touches included: breakfast, which can be delivered to your room, wine/cheese reception in the evenings, warm cookies and milk at night, and tea/water and candy out in the lobby throughout the day. When they did not have the water out in the lobby, the staff at the desk gave us bottled water to take with us. The beds are Tempurpedic and are wonderful. This experience at this hotel is worth the extra cost.
Terrific visit

We just returned from a beautiful trip to Charleston. Can't say enough about the staff and the service we recieved. This vacation was everything that we had hoped for... and more. From the fresh breakfast, the wine and cheese evening reception, and warm cookies for the late night snack.... every was wonderful. Really enjoyed the evening on the roof terrace overlooking the city. Would definitely hope to make plans to return to Charleston ... and the Harbourview Inn.
Great Location and Staff

We were attracted to this hotel by the pictures of the historic rooms, so we got one of those - brick walls, view of the fountain. Large room, very clean with a comfortable king bed. We would recommend one of these rooms - very unique and inviting. We asked the concierge for a tour of some of the other rooms - some have fireplaces and balconies overlooking the harbor, but all are very well appointed. There are two sections, but the hotel is pretty new (a few years, I think). The historic section, where we stayed, was a converted cotton warehouse. Great location - short walking distance from the best restaraunts and shopping in town. They parked our car when we arrived, and we didn't touch it till we left. The staff was great. There are several 4 stars to choose from in Charleston, and they all try to make sure that their guests come back instead of trying a different one. For us, the Harbour View succeeded.
Great Choice

My husband and I recently stayed at HVI and we could not have asked for a better hotel. The staff, the facility, the amenities, and the location were all first rate. Every single member of the staff seem to do everything possible to make sure each guest has the best stay possible. As far as the rooms, the ones with a view of the harbour are street side and seem to be smaller than the ones on the backside. Some rooms have fireplaces and sunken tubs. The room we stayed in was in the back with a view of an electrical substation but we didn't come to Charleston to sit in our room and look out the window. Therefore, we chose a backside room as it was larger and quieter - not that any of them are noisy. If you want a "view", sit on the rooftop terrace or get outside and enjoy it in person!! The only downside was the breakfast packages. Not much to choose from but keep in mind this hotel is a hotel with no restaurant or cooking facilities. Taking that into consideration, what they do offer is quite good and they were creative with their packages. And all of the extra goodies throughout the day are added bonuses. HVI is the best choice in Charleston!!
A great Hotel
