Overlooking the harbor, this historic district inn is beautifully decorated in a contemporary style. More than half of the rooms offer water views, some have balconies and operational fireplaces. Refreshments are provided all day, with cookies and milk capping off the nighttime snack.
Smoke free premises. 52 units. 4 stories, interior corridors. Accessibility (Call).
Pros: The wine & cheese at 5:00 each night was great. However, the young man who initially greeted us and made sure we were comfortable was without a doubt the best part of our stay!

Cons: The wife and I sleep with a fan on constantly, so no fan was a negative - however, the gentleman at the front desk hooked us up with one after I asked.

Pros: We were celebrating my husband's birthday and they brought Champagne and a card for my husband. That was very thoughtful and considerate which showed me that they pay attention. My husband loved the M & M's and we both loved the views from the rooftop. The staff were very helpful.
Cons: The Bed. I did not sleep well the entire time that I was there. By the third night, I was ready to go home. This is in comparison to other nearby such like hotels that I have visited often like French quarter and Charleston place. That is a deal breaker for me for any possible future stays. The breakfasts also became rather dull after the 2nd day. I would suggest more variety.

Would definitely stay here again.All of my lunch and dinner reservations were made a week in advance,guaranteeing me a spot at all the great restaurants. Arrived to awelcome cocktail and friendly faces. Coffee, iced tea and infused watersavailable all day. Wine and cheese reception was great...took our foodto the rooftop and enjoyed ourselves before heading out to dinner. Cameback to cookies at night and chocolate on the bed. Breakfast was timelyand delicious. Quiche was great, ham and cheese croissant was amazing,orange juice fresh. We can't say enough how much we enjoyedourselves. And the location was perfect! Nice and quiet but still in thethick of things.
We didn't have too much of a view because there was a tree in front of our balcony, but a very small observation.

Pros: The amenities and front desk staff at the HarborView are outstanding and the location couldn't be better. It is an easy walk to the tourist attractions. A wonderful breafast is included as is wine and cheese in the afternoon and along with milk and cookies in the evening. Coffee and both hot tea and cold are available 24 hours a day. The beds are very comfortable and the rooms are spacious. The front desk crew and the valets couldn't be more helpful. They were always able to answer our questions and make suggestions of things to make certain to see and of local places to eat. If I ever return to Charleston, I will try to stay here again.

Cons: Room not as charming as the photos, location not as convenient as some other hotels in historic downtown. Bathroom tacky, would not consider it 4 star. Breakfast pitiful for this price level (paid $360 a night) - hardboiled eggs, tasteless quiche, basic pastries. Attempted overcharge by laundry ($11.50 for an item clearly listed at $6.50), somewhat reluctantly corrected by bossy desk clerk.

Pros: Location! Location! Location! The view from our room was spectacular! We overlooked the waterfront and fountain. And the staff was welcoming, attentive, and extremely helpful. The breakfast was ok/sufficient/convenient but not great. The happy hour complimentary wine and cheese AND the 9pm fresh baked cookies and cold milk were delightful, unexpected treats. We heartily recommend the Harbourview Inn and hope to return!
Cons: The carpet needed to be (at the very least) shampooed but better yet replaced. The chairs in the room were "tired" and not very comfortable. However the bathroom was updated and terrific.
