The best night sleep I had on my whole vacation. Wake up to a beautiful view, walk to a great breakfast. Take your own walking tour of Charelston (follow a book from the gift shope) All in all a great place, very very nice.

I love history and for my birthday I was treated to a night in the presidential suite...
if this is the BEST that they have to offer, they should close their doors.
The room was HUGE, but the bathrooms were so small you could barely turn around. The carpets were terribly stained and threadbare, the wallpaper was peeling the the paint was ...

I booked this hotel based on the photos posted. It looked upscale. I'm not sure if the room photos posted for this hotel actually came from inside the hotel. The lobby was lovely. The room was horrendous. The wallpaper was peeling, the ceiling was stained, there was so much dust behind the nightstand (which was in plain view from the bed) ...

Romm was not ready upon arrival
Room very Plain, no views.
Bathroom- was so tiny there was no room to get dressed. Tub and shower just awful/all the lamps did not work. Waited so long (2 mornings) for Breakfast at the Swamp fox restaurant that we ended up leaving before the hostess even achknowledged our presence. This while being the only folks ...

I felt I owed this to Lucas and the rest of the staff at the Francis Marion. I spoke to the manager in person and explained my idea to stay there in a room with a view the night I popped the question. I'm a firm believer that when you rely on others you often get let down. Not this time! Lucas set me up in a great room that night. Yeah the ...

I stayed there several years ago, and I found it to be very "Grand." Stately decor, very tastefully decorated rooms. Comfortable. Great Staff. I found that a visit to the lobby was quiet, comfortable, and a very pleasant place to sit and relax. I absolutely loved the hotel, and I give it top marks, but there was one little thing (or ...

A brief chronicle of our Francis Marion experience for a regional conference of 405 persons: a reasssigned room, since the first one had sneakers near the entrance- snores that we heard confirmed that the sneakers were not part of the room package. The reassigned room was comparable and the registration staff honored our request not to be asigned ...

Overall aesthetically nice on the inside with the exception of the cramped bathroom and closet. The heat/ac unit was unreasonably loud in my opinion. The attached restaurant was a delicious plus. In addition, if you are in a hurry to get somewhere the elevators will drive you mad.

I had always wanted to stay here because of the hotel's history, but was very disappointed. Our first assigned room had a broken a/c. The second was very small and the bathroom was tiny to say the least. I suppose this comes with such an old building. The best things about it were the location and the bed was really comfortable. I was glad to stay there once, but will not again.
