Absolutely perfect location. Easy to walk to historic district, French quarter, popular restaurants and shopping. Charleston market right next door. Loved our double balcony luxury room. A little noisy as they opened to the market side. Room was a little rough looking for being recently renovated. Great shower/bath. Wished the balconies were large enough for chairs but they allowed for lots of fresh air and views. Rooftop bar/pool provided stunning city and sunset views. Staff were awesome and really took time to ensure you had all you needed. Very thoughtful. Enjoyed the coffee and daily fresh pastries on each floor at breakfast.

The staff was very accommodating. The room was good. Only used their restaurant once. It was very pricey. I’ve never paid $63 for a steak and the sides were extra.

We stayed at the Market Pavilion Hotel for our honeymoon, and it was truly unforgettable! From the moment we arrived, the hospitality was outstanding. The staff was warm, attentive, and genuinely made us feel special throughout our stay. The hotel itself is beautiful and perfectly located—everything we wanted to see and do in Charleston was just a short walk away. One of the highlights was the rooftop bar and pool. The views were incredible, the drinks were fantastic, and it was the perfect spot to unwind and take in the city from above. Our room was elegant and comfortable, and every detail was thoughtfully taken care of. Between the luxury, the location, and the exceptional service, the Market Pavilion Hotel made our honeymoon absolutely perfect. We can’t wait to come back—highly recommended for a romantic getaway or special occasion!

Everything about our visit to this hotel was amazing. From the minute, we stepped inside till the minute we left. The staff were friendly and courteous, they would go above and beyond to make sure your stay was perfect. The rooftop bar was fun and lively seats on the first come first serve basis. I would definitely stay here again. Location was perfect.
