Courtyard By Marriott Charleston Historic District, SC [Master Thread]
Don't see a master thread on this property. Any recent stays?
Back when I lived in Charleston, this was a Holiday Inn (with decent reviews).
Haven't been back since it went Marriott.
Cheapest Historic District option, pretty good TripAdvisor reviews.
Looking for a FT take.

If you end up staying there, please do a 'trip report' in this thread, as it would then pop up in search if others are looking to stay at the property in the future.
Cheers.
Cheers.

I'll definitely do a trip report.
FWIW, the TA reviews on this property seem to be, across the board, superior to the Renaissance HD.
It was a good hotel under IHG, and I look forward to seeing what (if any) changes Marriott has made.

I've posted to TA on the hotel. A good value, if a middle of the road hotel is what you want. It's not the 'Charleston' type experience of a fine BnB. Good solid rooms, some showing ware and age but overall 'OK'. Typical Courtyard food service, but a better as that all is fresh, not frozen. Parking at the hotel or across the street in a church lot. A nice central location as that lots of restaurants, etc. have opened uptown. It is also on the free trolly line for both the uptown/downtown service and the cross town service. There's a farmers market in the park across the street Sat. mornings.

I haven't stayed here but I've hosted a few out of town people who stayed here. Everyone likes it. If you're ok with a CY in general, this is probably the second best Marriott option in Charleston. The Renaissance is great (location), but IMO rooms are a little small and it's pricey. The CY is very convenient for walking to many attractions and restaurants.

Thank you all, very helpful. I think I will upgrade my Cat. 5 to a Cat 8 and stay at the Renaissance and do a day trip to Savannah. Cost to go from a Cat. 5 to a Cat. 8 travel package upgrade was 65K MRP's.
