Planters Inn - Charleston - A 4-star Relais & Châteaux hotel with award-winning dining and a garden courtyard in Charleston's Historic District
Located at the intersection of Market and Meeting Streets in Downtown Charleston's Historic District, this 64-room Relais & Châteaux Charleston hotel features Baker Historic Charleston Collection furnishings throughout, including four-poster beds with Italian linens. The property centers around a hidden garden courtyard illuminated by copper carriage lanterns, accessible through wrought-iron gates. Peninsula Grill, the hotel's fine-dining restaurant, has earned Forbes Four Stars and AAA Four Diamonds for over 20 years, known for its 12-layer Ultimate Coconut Cake. Guest rooms offer 10-foot ceilings, custom crown molding, and Molton Brown bath amenities. The Champagne Bar opens daily at 4 PM for cocktails and desserts. White-jacketed bellmen and a concierge team provide personalized service. The hotel overlooks Charleston City Market, with King Street shopping one block away.
Pros
The courtyard features handlit copper lanterns and palmetto trees for an authentic Charleston atmosphere
The Peninsula Grill restaurant has earned national acclaim from publications including The New York Times and Vogue
Located within walking distance of Rainbow Row, High Battery, and Waterfront Park
Exclusive furnishings from Baker's Historic Charleston Collection throughout all rooms
Cons
The Champagne Bar doesn't open until 4:00 PM daily
Some rooms face busy Market Street which can be noisy during peak hours
“Planters Inn stands out as the only Relais & Châteaux property in South Carolina, placing a firm emphasis on elevated hospitality, though some rooms show signs of wear. Its location in Charleston's Historic District ensures immediate access to key attractions, while the acclaimed Peninsula Grill, known especially for its coconut cake, underscores the hotel's dedication to culinary excellence. I see this as a property trading on its reputation but needing to refocus on consistent upkeep to justify its premium positioning.”
