Hotels in Charlestonan upscale 4-star boutique inn beside Charleston City Market
9.3/10
Exceptional hospitality and thoughtful extras make this a strong Charleston sightseeing base.
French Quarter Inn is an upscale 4-star boutique inn beside City Market, and a strong pick for travelers who prefer personal service to big-hotel spectacle. Tripadvisor and Expedia guests repeatedly praise the welcoming staff, spacious rooms, comfortable beds and meticulous housekeeping; Booking.com’s ratings reinforce that picture. Included breakfast, evening wine and cheese, and bedtime cookies add substance to the hospitality, while the location makes exploring historic Charleston on foot easy.
The trade-offs are mostly about the setting and scale: there’s no pool, valet parking costs extra, and the traditional interiors won’t suit everyone. A May 2026 Tripadvisor guest reported weekday construction across from the main entrance starting around 8 a.m.; confirm its current status and request a room facing away. We’d choose it for a service-led city break, but skip it if pool time or contemporary design is essential.
