Holiday Inn Hotel & Suites Charleston West by IHG

8/10 Good

"Went for the indoor pool for our kids and it was great! Loved the fountains and the hot tub too. The overall hotel is average but the pool is reason enough to go again if we are passing thru that area again. I’d recommend for families as a nice option of something to do."

Microtel Inn & Suites by Wyndham Charleston WV

10/10 Excellent

"Room was clean, comfortable and very quiet. Great bed and excellent shower. Continental breakfast only, but it included hard boiled eggs, which I loved. Gracious staff and well maintained building. A perfect stopover."

Sleep Inn Charleston North

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay. Clean, recently renovated, bright and well decorated rooms. Super friendly staff and a nice breakfast in the morning. We only stayed one night when passing through town to split up a long drive. Very glad we chose this hotel. Highly recommended."

Mardi Gras Casino & Resort

8/10 Good

"The staff was very helpful, the hotel was very clean and spacious. The casino could have had some glasswear instead of plastic glasses ,very tacky if you ask me. But overall a good experience."

Sleep Inn & Suites Cross Lanes - South Charleston

8/10 Good

"The front lobby and room was very clean. The check in staff was very nice. The tissue box in the room was empty and hadn’t been replaced. The morning staff was a different story. There were no cups for the juices, the trash can was overflowing, and the front desk staff was outside smoking. There was no one checking on the breakfast area. When we left, there was no one at the front desk and there was not a note telling what to do with the keys. We walked out to the car and saw the staff outside again smoking. Very disappointed."
