Evaluate carefully what you want out of your hotel in Charleston: if a sense of history or place is important to you with regard to the overall ambiance a hotel exudes, you can do much better than the Market Pavilion, a fairly unremarkable city property. Although its location is superb, we were otherwise very underwhelmed, which I realize is contrary... More

Our stay was incredible from the moment our car door was opened until we left! The front desk personnel were friendly and helpful, our room was beautiful, comfortable and clean! I especially enjoyed the 2 wonderful balconies that overlooked the slave market and the Charleston Harbor. Our floor had wonderful pastries, fruit, and coffee out every morning. The roof top... More

This is my 2nd time in Charleston and my 1st stay at the Market Pavilion Hotel, but definitely not my last. The service was great by everyone (especially Susanne the concierge and Melissa and Amanda on the concierge floor). Susanne was very helpful getting reservations at the hard to get into restaurants (loved all of them). Thanks so much Susanne.... More

Our experience at the Market Pavilion was fantastic. The location was very central, the service was impeccable and the food was delightful. I traveled to this property with my Husband and another couple for our friend's 30th Birthday. We made sure to take advantage of the roof top pool bar and restaurant every day. It was comfortable and quaint. At... More

Just stayed for three days. The rooms were great as well as the food. The best part of the hotel was the service that was extended throughout our stay. From the concierge, Suzanne who was charming and most helpful with anything we asked her to do, to the bellman and front desk. I would stay at the Market Pavillion the... More

This hotel has a great location next to the slave market buildings (now an open-air arcade with many vendors), and with lots of restaurants within easy walking distance. Good, spacious rooms, but somewhat pricey. Their rooftop bar and restaurant is a nice place to unwind and is very enjoyable. The hotel has a pleasant and helpful staff.

Loved our stay, would stay here again. Concierge lounge excellent. Great location, roof top bar is a must see. Love the cucumber martini, called the Refreshtini. One problem, my daughter left a small bag of dirty clothing that no one ever was able to find??? We called later the afternoon after we checked out and again the next morning but... More

Hotel is very conveniently located to the market, lots of restaurants, King Strret, and the waterfront. We didn't need to use our car at all during our stay. Hotel was just shy of being truly a 4 star property. We had multiple issues with the tv. Maintenance came quickly, however, we had the same issue about 3 times. This was... More

Hadn't been to Charleston since I was stationed there on a Navy destroyer in the '60's. Needless to say this visit was much different, most especially thanks to the Market Pavilion Hotel. For starters, it has a great location near the most charming part of Charleston and within easy walking distance of some very nice restaurants. Rooms were very nice,... More
