The hotel is very nice. Our room view was of the outside courtyard. All lit up in Christmas decor. Unfortunately we did not get to enjoy much of the property amenities as we just needed a place to stay after a work holiday party downtown. The only complaint is the parking. Valet is $55/night. On street is free only until 5am. Was not going to get up that early to move my car. And the parking garage a block away was not operating so we parked in another garage three blocks away.

Typical “instagram” hotel. Average at best
Average stay. Beware if you are allergic to animals. The property is very pet friendly (they’re everywhere), but I didn’t realize. Itchy red eyes throughout. They offered to move into another room, but could guarantee it would be any better. Staff is very friendly and welcoming. Free coffee is great. Loved the free bike rentals and coffee shop downstairs. Outdoor patio with the winter tents was cool until a rat walked right up to us then ran into the bushes, ahh!! Overall, pictures make it look much better than it really was. I’d look elsewhere in the future.

Very nice hotel with great dining at Frannie and Fox. The glass bottle sodas and little snacks in the room is a nice touch. We also received a free welcome cocktail. The room was nice, clean and the bed was comfortable.

Weekend away
Amazing location. Weddings were going on all weekend so the hotel was very loud. Music played until after 11 at night which was very loud and we could not sleep. Kitchen shut down on Saturday during the day for the entire afternoon to “get ready for wedding.” Bar was full of people getting drinks from the wedding and there was no room. Overall I loved the location and wanted to love this place but felt like they prioritized weddings over hotel guests so would not recommend this hotel during a weekend

Great energy in a prime location
We spent 4 nights at the Emeline and really enjoyed our stay. You are right next to the city market, carriage tours and many restaurants, bars and shopping as well as an easy stroll through historic neighborhoods. Our room was swanky with a turntable and plush velvet couch living room with separate kind bedroom. Loved it!

Amazing location and lovely hotel, but noisy
So many great aspects: free bike usage, location(!), employees, and water station. Unfortunately, our room was on the side above the restaurant and its outdoor seating. Loud music playing all day and the first night all night. We did ask that they turn it off by 11 and they were great about it for subsequent nights- but it as annoying nonetheless. Our room was very tiny too.

Pick Emeline!!!!!
Best hotel I’ve ever stayed in in my life! The small touches were incredible - the glass water bottles, the turn down service, the happy hour, the candles in the lobby, the little ice bags! I loved it

Ok and needs improvement given the price
Spotty service. Terrible room first night with view of parking lot thru wet paint doors and AC would not heat and door security deadbolt wouldn’t turn. And they upgraded me to a nice room on street//lots of partying. Restaurant ok, concierge a dragon. Could improve given the price.

This hotel has so much potential! It’s in the best part of Charleston; so close to the water, very walkable, a great restaurant inside (Frannie and the Fox). However it’s just not clean. Our room was cute, but gross. The toilet little plastic things that cover bolts on the back of toilet were broken off, there was noticeable dinginess on the baseboards, and we had 2 ROACHES in our room on the last day. We didn’t spend much time in the room the other days so I’m guessing there were more. We did mention it to the front desk, but they were just grossed out and didn’t offer any sort of accommodation. The workout is truly gross.. it looks like it hasn’t been cleaned in ages. If this place could get its cleaning act together it could be 5 star.

check in was great, concierge and valet were always friendly and nice. Frannies restaraunt was good once you were inside, but the greeting staff were not nice they were not welcoming and made you feel they were doing you a favour when they seated you. the bed, shower and room were very good.

The hotel was wonderful, I received a welcome cocktail at check-in, which was tasty. The food at the restaurant was pretty good. I ordered a pizza to the room and by time it arrived it was cold. The hotel did remove the charge at checkout. I also loved the record player in the room. The hotel was busy but also quiet. The only complaint I had, was being on the third floor near the gym, I could hear the weights being dropped on the floor. Other than that the hotel is near plenty of shops and eateries. Overall a great choice.
