Crowne Plaza Charleston By IHG

Modern Comfort Minutes from the Music

Modern and welcoming, Crowne Plaza Charleston By IHG blends Southern hospitality with contemporary style in the heart of North Charleston. Located just six blocks from the North Charleston Performing Arts Center and Charleston Convention Center, and under 6 miles from the airport, this hotel is a convenient base for music fans flying in or driving up for the show.

Why Concert-goers love it

The location is hard to beat—within walking distance or a quick ride to major venues. Despite being so close to the action, the hotel offers a peaceful atmosphere for winding down after the encore.

On-site parking and proximity to the airport make it ideal for out-of-town fans, and the 24-hour fitness center means you can burn off that post-show adrenaline.
