What it is

Planters Inn is a quintessential Charleston hotel, capturing the essence of the city’s old-world charm while offering contemporary comforts. The property occupies a beautifully restored 19th-century building and features elegant rooms with antique furnishings, plush bedding, and modern touches.

What it isn't

Planters Inn is not a sprawling, high-rise hotel or a modern, minimalist property. It's a boutique experience that emphasizes personalized service and historic charm rather than sleek, contemporary design or large-scale amenities.
