The Palmetto Hotel, Charleston

East Bay Street boutique four minutes from the harbour promenade

This hotel is part of the Daisy Curated Collection. Its information has been researched and verified, but Daisy has not yet personally stayed here. When she does, this page will be upgraded to a full Daisy Verified inspection.

Daisy's Assessment
Researched and verified. Not yet personally stayed.
The Palmetto is a boutique hotel at 194 East Bay Street, on the corridor that runs between the City Market and the harbour, with the French Quarter galleries a block away. It's a smaller, more contemporary property than the historic inns around it. It suits travellers who want to be on the harbour side of the peninsula. Two dogs are taken and there's a grassy relief spot near the hotel.
