Did I just stumble up on the best hotel in town?
This little hidden gem of an historic hotel is tucked away in THE PERFECT location. Out the front door is King Street, with all the big name shops. Out the back door, across the small lot where your car is parked, the Charleston market is only a short two minutes away. You are truly in the middle of everything, with no need to move your car unless you want to go to the beach or leave the historic district. The hotel itself is stunning. Hospitality is as Southern as it gets, with breakfast in the morning, wine and cheese reception in the evening, and a sherry night cap before bed, all complimentary. The room was unbelievably spacious and comfortable. The option to light the gas fire place was a nice touch. Every employee we spoke to was so kind and helpful. I'd stay here again in a heartbeat.

Perfect Charming Stay for a Mother/Daughter trip.
We took this trip to Charleston as a mother daughter senior trip. After being indecisive in choosing an inn or hotel, we finally decided on the Kings Courtyard Inn. We ended up being so happy with our decision. The whole place was so charming. The staff was very welcoming and friendly. We had a couple of extra little “wishes” and they made them happen. The room (2 double beds) was perfect and larger than I felt like the photos made them seem. Very clean. We were very pleasantly surprised by the warm breakfast options that were brought to us each morning with no extra charge. We will definitely be back. 👌

Amazing location, clean rooms, helpful staff. Our favorite was the free wine and cheese hour, room service, and they even had umbrellas when it was raining. Parking is just in the back of the inn. Will stay again!

Our room was lovely but faced King Street. Noise from the street, especially music from the oyster bar across the street, was excessive. Hotel staff were very nice but offered nothing to compensate for our inability to sleep and my having to cross the street to bar, at night, and personnaly ask manager to turn the music down.

arking was convenient at $17 for the overnight rate. The hotel is a historic property, so don't expect modern amenities, but it's well-maintained and very clean. I would definitely recommend staying here. The location is fantastic, right on King Street.

The property was charming with a lot of character. Very convenient to all shopping and dining options in the heart of the historic district. Surrounding area, streets were clean and felt safe at night walking to and from hotel. Loved the hour of wine and cheese in the evening and sherry at night! The only negative we had was lobby smelled musty and our first room offered on the first floor right outside of courtyard as well and the carpet in the first room looked dirty and may have been damp. They had a small dehumidifier/air purifier running in the room. We were able to change our room to second floor and had a room with hardwood floors which was much better. Still had somewhat of a musty smell but we bought a candle and that really helped. Overall, we would stay again.

It was great! The pillows were kind of flat but that was the only downside to this wonderful hotel!

The facility was aged but okay. Some things were in need of repair like shower door and blinds. Personnel were always kind. The complimentary wine and breakfast options were a plus. L
