The Emeline was a beautiful hotel right in the heart of downtown. It was close to so many nice highlights like the Charleston market, the pineapple fountain and near great food like Hyman's seafood. My daughter and I had a great time at this lovely place.

Great location, loved the hotel. Only drawback was that the room opened to a courtyard for the bar/wedding venue and it was very loud during bedtime.

Unique hotel, friendly staff and great location. Complementary water and fruit was a nice touch. The restaurant and coffee shop were both good and the restaurant had a beautiful patio area. On the negative side, our room faced the street and was quite noisy, even in the middle of the night.
