Harbourview Inn

The location is great!

The bathroom needed a remodel.

Had a wonderful stay at the Harborview Inn in Charleston SC . The staff could not be friendlier and helpful throughout our stay. We loved the roof top area for views of the harbor and relaxing with easy music after a long day of either the beach or walking around. My favorite was breakfast in room or rooftop or wherever you want daily which was excellent and always hot included in your stay which I didn't realize. The endless water for hydration readily available was another favorite of our family with wine and cheese at 5 pm with either music or a history lesson. My daughter s favorite (who is 25 ) was the cookies and milk at 9 pm all which is included in your stay price. I already plan on returning. Best oysters which I am not a fan but husband is was at a restaurant called Amen right around the corner Best brisket and spare ribs was Lewis Barbecue. Can't say enough great things about my 5 day stay Will certainly return.

The HarbourView Inn is our base when we attend the WTA Charleston Open tennis tournament. The location is perfect for some sightseeing and for catcjing the ferry to Daniel Island for the tennis. We love everything about the hotel, the balcony rooms with the view on the park and Cooper river, the comfort of the rooms, the wonderful breakfast staff cheerfully delivering the complimentary breakfast every morning, the wine happy hour, the friendly valet service....We'll keep coming back!

We had a wonderful experience at HarbourView Inn. The location was perfect and we were able to walk to most places. The rooms were clean and comfortable and we loved the breakfast{which was included and delivered to our room} every morning. The candy bar in the lobby was great for a quick sweet treat and we really enjoyed the wine and cheese in the afternoon. We would definetly stay again. The staff was also very helpful and accomadating.

Lovely boutique hotel with great location, wonderful rooms, friendly and helpful staff everywhere. Great complementary amenities, including wine & charcuterie in evening; breakfast served in your room, the rooftop lounge (weather permitting), or lobby breakfast area; M & M's, Skittles, lemonade, iced tea, coffee/tea, and fresh fruit, plus bottled water; AND cookies & milk later in the evening. Good view of fountain, waterfront, and park from many rooms. AND, within a short walk from many sights, and 2 blocks of a dozen great restaurants, to boot!

We LOVED this place, so much fun. Julia and Jonathan were FANTASTIC!!!! Can't wait to visit again Peggy B - Chicago, IL

We've stayed in nice hotels during our four trips to Charleston, but by far the Harbourview Inn is our favorite. It's an inn with all the benefits of a B&B, but with the privacy of a small hotel. Luxury beds, linens, and contemporary decor done with a comfortable Southern flair--it's not a cookie-cutter chain. Breakfast was served in our room, in the atrium, or on nice days the rooftop terrace--your choice. Quiches, flakey buttery croissants, cinnamon rolls (the best), fruit, carafes of hot beverages served in your room on a table for two. You can even eat it in bed as you watch the sun rise over the Cooper River. At night there's wine, cheese, including Brie, hummus, fruit, and vegetables served at 5:00 pm in the lobby. There are also cookies and milk at 9:00 pm. Alas, we were in our jammies by then. Across the street is the waterfront park with its fountains including the landmark Pineapple Fountain, as well as a pier that features swings for adults. No car-no problem. Right across the street a local free bus that comes about every ten minutes. Its route takes you to all the main attractions in the historic district. Excellent restaurants, including our favorite Magnolia's, are around the corner on East Bay Street. There's an ice cream store next door as well as a funky dive pub. Unlimited coffee, tea, lemonade, and iced tea are served throughout the day in the atrium and there is a refrigerator in the lobby with free bottles of water. I almost forgot--the highlight of the trip for my husband--there are gum ball machines in the lobby that dispense plain and peanut M&Ms. We had tiny cups of M&Ms scattered all over our room. It was a close to being at home, yet away, as we've ever felt in Charleston.

We absolutely loved the Harbourview Inn. The room was very spacious with a large bathroom and walk in shower. Nice bedding, nice fixtures in the room. I think our favorite things were some of the extras like the evening wine and cheese reception, milk & cookies around and breakfast. For breakfast, each day you fill out a menu and choose a time for delivery to your room (or I believe to the lobby). There were a variety of breads, bagel, croissants, quiches, juices, cereals, fruits, coffee and tea, etc. Every evening from 5-6p there was a wine and cheese reception with a variety of wines, cheeses, meats (salami, prosciutto….) and fruits. Perhaps our favorite was the Milk and Cookies from 9-10p. Warm cookies (chocolate chip, sugar, chocolate-chocolate chip….) and really cold milk. Delicious. We thought this was the cutest touch. All day there was ice tea, lemonade and a flavored water available. I think there was coffee and tea too (I think this was all day, but I am not positive). The location is perfect for a first timers like we were. Beautiful view of the harbor, directly across the street from Waterfront Park - 2 minute walk to the Pineapple Fountain. Maybe 3-5 minutes from Rainbow Row, 5-10 to the Charleston City Market. A lot of the well-known restaurants were within a 5 minute walk too (Magnolia, SNOB, High Cotton, Ruby Sunshine, Revival). We loved walking around and seeing all the beautiful nearby houses and the waterfront. Valet was always really fast. Charleston is a wonderful city, very clean, very friendly. The Harbourview Inn will make your stay even better. I can’t wait to return. Note - the website mentions the construction across the street. I appreciated that this was pointed out, but honestly, we saw construction but couldn’t hear it from the room (3rd floor) and barely noticed it when outside.

We love staying at the HarbourView Inn in Charleston, SC. The staff is friendly and very helpful especially the front desk staff. There is no restaurant on site but who needs one with so many fabulous places within walking distance. Included in the room rate is breakfast delivered to your room, a daily wine and cheese reception and warm cookies at night. Our home away from home while we are in Charleston.
