I booked the Loutrel for a little "me time" staycation in early August. I had looked at a number of hotels in the historic district and chose this one because of the photos and looks at the hotel online. It did NOT disappoint. From the first entrance to the lobby environment including the hotel's signature "scent" I knew it was just what I wanted. With its elegant amenities, comfortable room, great service, and the overall aesthetic, this hotel was definitely the escape I needed. I forgot a couple of times I was even in Charleston (as wonderful as it is to be here!). Thank you to all for a memorable and beyond refreshing stay.
The beautiful lobby mural.
Yummy breakfast.
Fresh flowers in the lobby.
That bar, though...

My wife and I stayed here while on our honeymoon in Charleston and we both loved it. Everything was clean and the staff always made sure to greet us when we left and once we returned. We will definitely be staying here again next time we return to Charleston.

We had an absolutely amazing stay at The Loutrel. From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond—welcoming, accommodating, and genuinely attentive to every detail. Their hospitality made a real difference in our experience. The breakfast each morning was delicious, and the evening happy hour was a perfect way to unwind. We especially appreciated the thoughtful touches like the nightly turndown service and the cookie left for us—it made the stay feel even more special. The atmosphere, service, and overall experience were exceptional. We’re already looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommend The Loutrel for anyone visiting Charleston!

My husband and I stayed here for our Charleston honeymoon and it was all wonderful! We loved our room, the lobby, and the amazing hospitality that we received during our stay. We have recommended this to our friends who wish to travel to Charleston because of how walkable everything is from the hotel and the kindness each staff member had. We couldn’t have been more satisfied with the Loutrel!
