Description:
Charleston's premier hostelry, an Orient Express Property, is an eight-story landmark in the Historic District that looks like a postmodern French château. It's big-time, uptown, glossy, and urban -- at least, one former visitor, Prince Charles, thought so. Governors and prime ministers from around the world, as well as members of Fortune 500 companies, even visiting celebs such as Mel Gibson, prefer to stay here instead of at one of the more intimate B&Bs. Guest rooms are among the most spacious and handsomely furnished in town -- stately, modern, and maintained in state-of-the-art condition. This hotel represents the New South at its most confident, a stylish giant in a district of B&Bs and small converted inns. Acres of Italian marble grace the place, leading to plush guest rooms with decor inspired by colonial Carolina. The deluxe restaurant, Charleston Grill, is recommended. A cafe provides a more casual option.

Not up to scratch

The hotel is really overdue for a complete makeover. Looks good on first sight but a closer inspection reveals a lot to be desired. The room on the concierge level was pokey, the bathroom...
