Really great hotel for a competitive price. Recieved an upgrade on the room and free valet parking is hard to beat. The staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel was clean, had a good restaurant and coffe shop within hotel. The gym was larger and better than most that I've been in. This is so far my favorite Charlston hote.

The Emeline was a beautiful hotel right in the heart of downtown. It was close to so many nice highlights like the Charleston market, the pineapple fountain and near great food like Hyman's seafood. My daughter and I had a great time at this lovely place.

Great location, loved the hotel. Only drawback was that the room opened to a courtyard for the bar/wedding venue and it was very loud during bedtime.
