The Spotlight on Hotel Bennett Charleston

Luxury Meets Live Music in the Heart of Charleston

Modern Southern elegance defines Hotel Bennett Charleston, a five-star hotel nestled right on King Street in the city’s vibrant downtown. Just a short stroll from top music venues and iconic attractions like Marion Square and the Charleston Museum, this upscale spot blends historic charm with contemporary comfort. With a rooftop pool, fine dining, and spacious rooms with city views, it’s a sophisticated home base for concert-goers wanting to experience Charleston in style.

Why Concert-goers love it

Location is everything, and Hotel Bennett nails it. Just a few blocks from major venues and walkable to many of the city’s nightlife hotspots, you’ll spend less time commuting and more time enjoying the show. The 24-hour front desk and late 12:00 PM checkout mean you can roll in late and rest easy. Despite being in the center of the action, guests often note the rooms are quiet and restful—ideal after a high-energy night.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends heading to a weekend music festival
  • Solo travelers checking off that bucket-list artist
  • Couples making a romantic concert weekend of it
  • Fans seeking peace and a plush space to unwind post-show
  • Budget-conscious music lovers willing to splurge a little for location and luxury

Food and Drink Options

After a late night, Hotel Bennett’s got you covered. There's a top-rated on-site restaurant serving American, French, and local cuisine, and they offer vegetarian, vegan, and dairy-free options. While 24/7 room service isn’t listed, the flexible dining options and nearby eateries more than make up for it. An American breakfast is available to help you bounce back after the encore.

Nightlife Options

Charleston’s nightlife unfolds just outside the lobby. Whether you're looking for a low-key bar with local craft cocktails or a buzzing lounge scene, you're within walking distance of it all. And while the hotel doesn’t host live music on-site, its central location makes it a breeze to bar-hop or head back post-show.

What People Say

Guest reviews frequently highlight the beautiful decor, attentive service, and unbeatable location. Many praise the spacious, well-appointed rooms and rooftop views. Travelers also love the refined yet relaxed vibe—perfect for decompressing after a night out.

Areas for Improvement

While the hotel is undeniably luxurious, some guests note that parking is pricey and valet service can be slow during peak times. Also, with so much nearby nightlife, it can get lively in the surrounding area—but that’s part of the charm for most concert-goers.

The Bottom Line

If you're looking for upscale comfort, walkable nightlife, and a stylish retreat after the show, Hotel Bennett Charleston hits all the right notes.

Decor and service amazing, pool...

Liked: Beautiful decor, prob prettiest hotel in Charleston. Amazing service and breakfast.
Disliked: Minuscule pool packed with people from the bar, not relaxing experience at all. Also not enough seating around pool or distance between seating.

Hotel Bennett far exceeds expectations...

Liked: I usually comment when I'm on vacation, "There's no place like home." But, not this time. Hotel Bennett exceeded my expectations from the moment I stepped through the door. Every staff person I encountered was professional, mannerly, and showered my daughter and I with an abundance of Southern hospitality. I immediately felt at home. All the amenities were first class. I was pleasantly surprised to see the room attendants did a turn down each night and left a sweet treat on the pillows. The linens are high quality and perfectly white and crisp. We also enjoyed breakfast at Virginia's on King and the roof top lounge for lunch. No disappointment at either restaurant as the food arrived hot, fresh, and plentiful. I can't say enough about how impressed we were. If I ever travel to Charleston again, the Hotel Bennett is my must stay location.
Disliked: I do wish the Hotel had been designed with a larger pool deck area. Ten available chairs for guests, not counting the cabanas, simply fall short for the number of guests anticipating to lounge at the pool.

A long-time bucket list historical...

Liked: Every morning of our stay we ate at La Pâtisserie on site and enjoyed fresh quiche and coffee. Delicious. Fresh. Beautiful pastries and baked goods. Hotel Bennett is conveniently located downtown and the staff was just uncomparable! Friendly, helpful, conversational, easy going, and just so nice.
Disliked: I though the room rates were a little high as compared to other large cities we have visited over Mother's day.
