Concierge "If you want to be right in the historic district, this hotel in an old shipping warehouse is steps from the harbor, Old City Market, and Lower King Street's antique row."

Request one that overlooks the Waterfront Park along the Cooper River.
Fodor's "Calming earth tones and rattan furniture soothe; four-poster beds and sea-grass rugs complete the Lowcountry look." Full review

If you ask for a room facing the harbor, you can gaze out onto the kid-friendly fountain and 8 acres of Waterfront Park.

"Harbour View Inn is a historic landmark, and the only waterfront hotel downtown." Full review
Star Service "Across the street from Waterfront Park, next to the more florid Vendue Inn, this purpose-built, full-service hotel frequently pops up on popular lists of Charleston's Top 10 lodgings." Full review

Best choose a unit on the third floor to guarantee a water vista.
Michelin Guide "This historic district property overlooks Charleston Harbor. Low country-style guest rooms feature four-poster beds, wicker chests and seagrass rugs."
Gayot "Simple can either be stark or strikingly elegant---in the case of this hotel, its the latter. This stately brick building is well-located overlooking a pretty fountain plaza."
Jetsetter "Boutique inn with classic Charleston style just steps from the harbor and the city’s best sights." Full review

If you're looking for a little more luxury, then request the historic part of the hotel (the staff calls that location 1A).

Rough Guide "Appealing, very friendly hostel in a double-porched 1850 house on the northern edge of downtown."
Frommer's "This is an excellent bargain considering the Historic District is within walking distance (in fact, it’s the only hostel in the city)." Full review

"An affordable option in historic downtown Charleston that's popular with young budget travelers and backpackers... clean and simple rooms." Full review
Fodor's "A small enclave of 1840s-era buildings make up this homey, idyllic hostel." Full review
Lonely Planet "Housed mainly in a wonderful 1840 dwelling complete with atmospheric blue porches and an odd, twin-matching architecture setup, Charleston's one hostel is creaky and inviting." Full review
