Planters Inn Review

Planters Inn
$$$$, Market Area
Fodor's Review:
Part of the Relais & Châteaux group, this boutique property is a stately sanctuary amid the bustle of Charleston's Market. Light streams into a front parlor with its velvets and Oriental antiques. It serves as the lobby for this exclusive inn that has both an historic side and a new building wrapped around a two-story piazza and overlooking a tranquil garden courtyard. Yet the rooms all look similar, and are beautifully maintained. Service is gentile and unobtrusive, and the hospitality is genuine. Best choice rooms are those with fireplaces, or verandas, four-poster canopy beds, and the newer "piazza" suites with whirlpool baths.

Underwhelmed
Posted by jazjaf from Cincinnati on 11/11/07
I think we must have gotten the 'value' room, because I can't fathom why this place is so highly rated. We booked online via there website for a last minute Sunday evening stay. While the rate was competitive with other nearby hotels, the hotel is just, well....boring. All the rave reviews must be for the more expensive suites. But, there's nothing to do in the hotel. The lobby is basically just an entryway and the 'common room' is just some worn and unattractive old chairs. I don't get it. The location is great, but that's about all the hotel offers....very dissapointing.
