When we decided to visit Charleston for a mother and three daughters trip we found this charming inn online. Once we arrived there, we were met with outstanding hospitality. The concierge was so kind and helpful. There were several different ones that helped us. The rooms were spacious, comfortable and very quiet. Breakfast that was brought each morning to our... More

From wonderfully comfortable beds to the breakfast brought to our room every morning, you could not ask for a better place to stay in beautiful Charleston. Our room faced the main street and we enjoyed watching people enjoy the quaint street filled with shops and restaurants. SuSu and Kesha helped us from where to eat to things to see. Charleston...

Our stay in Charleston was accented by The Fulton Inn. Clean, well maintained and located in the heart of the history and shopping on King Street. Convenient parking at rear of the hotel ($12.00/ day) and easy walking to the Market.

What a charming inn! Romantic -- get the fireplace!, close to everything, fantastically helpful staff. Oh, and we always got the breakfast delivered to our room -- just too nice to lounge and plan our day that much longer. Take the self-guided walking tours, and take advantage of the pedi-cabs.

The large canopy bed, fireplace, white armoire, wicker chair and large elegant bathroom made a comfy, lovely room. The staff was friendly and went out of their way to help a stranger to Charleston. The location is perfect. I loved it!

Susu and Kesha were extremely friendly and helpful with restaurants and sightseeing. The room we had was 317, it was lovely corner room with a fireplace.

Bathroom had mold in it in tub and floor. Beds were quite hard and run down. The hotel has a lot of potential but it appears no money is spent on upgrades. Continental breakfast ok but if you pick anything else off the menu they charge for it. Quite disappointed for what we paid. There has to be better.

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
A romantic hideaway in America’s most enchanting city, The Fulton Lane Inn is private, intimate and exceptionally accommodating. The Fulton Lane Inn surrounds you with the comfort and gracious ambiance of a bygone era. Many of our spacious rooms feature oversized whirlpool baths and luxurious canopied beds, draped with hand strung netting. Other rooms boast cathedral ceilings and several offer fireplaces.Throughout, soaring windows frame captivating vistas of the city's historic skyline, punctuated with the many trademark church spires. The charm and spirit of the Old South live on in this historic inn, built by the family of Confederate blockade runner John Rugheimer. Regarded as the most sophisticated city in America, antebellum Charleston was the cradle of Southern gentility. The proper Charleston home then welcomed summer's casual pace by covering formal furnishings in airy muslin, replacing wool carpets with sisal, and positioning shutters to admit fresh breezes and to provide gentle shade. At the Fulton Lane Inn, that spirit has been beautifully recaptured. Here, light filters softly through louvered shades, casting an inviting glow on lush plants. The patina of fine woods, natural textures and soft pastels invite you to indulge in the simple pleasures of a more gracious time. During your stay, you'll be pampered with complimentary continental breakfast delivered to your room each morning. Our traditional Southern hospitality continues with sherry in the lobby each evening. Of course, our concierge is always at hand to attend to your every need. You're just a mere stroll from the famous harbor, historic homes and attractions. The Fulton Lane Inn is situated just off King Street, tucked away on a pedestrian lane in the heart of the city's famous historic district. The inn is literally surrounded by countless fascinating boutiques, scores of antique shops and elegant restaurants. There are countless ways to enjoy the Fulton Lane Inn. ... more   less
