“Nice place, plenty of room and close to downtown attractions.”

Reviewed 21 May 2013 via mobile

Very nice and within walking distance to many downtown attractions. Parking is a half block away but that is very typical for Charleston. Not like a typical hotel in that there is no onsite staff so it helps to bring anything you need for your refrigerator or your room. Very nice. I would stay there again.

“Great space; Mixed review”

Reviewed 19 May 2013

Overall, we enjoyed our stay here but would likely choose another area of Charleston for our next stay. This is a review of #201. Pros: - Great space - Loved the 1.5 bathrooms as it is nice to have an extra and they had plenty of room and counter space. - Nice finishings and great kitchen. Nice appliances. - Bed... More

Thank you for your review. I’m especially happy to see that the unit was furnished to your liking. As you can imagine for our great location in the HEART of downtown comes unwanted city noise. I wish we could control this for you. We understand that we are not your “basic” hotel and may not be a good fit for... More

“Too Much Money for Too Little”

My husband, sister, nephew, and I have just returned from a two-night stay in The Society House Unit #303 in Charleston, South Carolina. I would not recommend the property. As stated above, unit 303 was a two bedroom, 1 bath condo. The above mentioned bedrooms and bathroom were all on the second floor. There was 1 waste paper basket in... More

“location is excellent, but not so if light-sleeper”

Reviewed 7 May 2013

This review is specific to room #201. Located on the second floor with a view of King Street, the apartment offers lots of natural light and opportunities for people watching. The modern kitchen is very nice and the living area better than most. The closet space was ample and the access of building and apartment very easy. The location was... More

Thank you for your feedback regarding your recent stay with us. Our wi-fi continues to be an issue that we are constantly working on. With this particular old building and the layout of all the guest rooms, it can be difficult to provide a constant and strong signal to every room. We find this unacceptable and continuing to work with... More

“Perfect place to stay for a girls weekend”

We loved the location of the Society House! Right on the corner of King with all the shopping just steps away. You can park your car and walk everywhere from this location. The condo itself was beautiful. Pleanty of room for all of us to hang out and be social. I would highly recommend it. The only complaint I have... More

“So much better than a hotel”

Reviewed 26 March 2013

Being able to stay in a room with a kitchen, separate rooms and bathrooms, and in the heart of the city was so convenient. We were able to park on arrival and walk wherever we needed, and had a great experience. Clean, convenient, and perfect for someone wanting more than two queens and a coffee maker.
