Exceptional
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Our room was pleasant and a good size. We got the impression it wasn’t used often because the tv didn’t work and the clock wasn’t set properly. After notifying the staff, the problems were fixed. The two chairs in the room were stained and should also be reupholstered with better batting/cushion. Wood furniture pieces were scraped and could use some polish to hide the rough edges.
Great restaurant and excellent service from all staff. Great location.
Wonderful! Walkable to everything. We will return.

Booked the wrong night…my fault unquestionably…but neither Planters or Expedia would give me a refund or a least a credit or partial credit for a future trip…not good business in my money mind. Won’t use a third party to book like Expedia in the future…this would have been easier to navigate had I booked directly through Planters and I am a good repeat customer…oh well, lesson learned

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
This is a typical example of an upscale boutique hotel. My main complaint was the smell in our room. When walking in, you're hit with a mild sewage smell coupled with urinal cakes. We got nose-blind to the smell after a while, but each time we left and walked back in, boom, sewage. Otherwise, hotel was nice although some décor in the room was broken/chipped and the carpet was showing its age. I would probably choose elsewhere next time.
We had a lovely stay at the Planters Inn. Such a cute place and really enjoyed ourselves on our stay in Charleston. Love that they still have daily housekeeping! Hot coffee always available in the lounge was nice. Staff super friendly and accommodating.
Hotel aligns with the boutique old Charleston theme. However, I do think the reception staff and managerial staff need to smarten up for the price paid. E.G the receptionist could not help with any old town tours information, only a local bus service route.
