One year old hotel, spotless, gorgeous decor! A nice surprise was a coffee grinder for fresh coffee, full kitchenette, and a washer & dryer! Walking distance to great restaurants. Staff was really helpful. I would highly recommend.

Honestly? This is probably one of the best hotels I’ve stayed at and I’ve stayed a LOT. I didn’t expect a full ass kitchen with even a dishwasher, AND a in unit washer/dryer. I could live here ha! Everyone was super friendly and helpful, the bar was cool and the courtyard was so pretty.

The Nickel hotel is a pied a Terre concept… separate bedroom, bathroom, sitting area and kitchen. It is spacious, beautifully designed and comfortable. The location is great as you are on King and can get to restaurants and shopping but away from the loud night life. Will go again.

The Nickel was outstanding. We have stayed at numerous 5 star hotels around Charleston, (hotel Bennett, the dewberry etc) and the Nickel is by far our favorite. It’s beautifully designed and feels fresh and brand new. The kitchenette actually came in handy numerous times. We took advantage of the free bike rentals and really enjoyed it. The location is perfect. We will definitely be back.

Smaller location made the staff attentive and on point. Complimentary bikes and morning coffee spread a nice touch. Only downside was the room faced the central shared atrium where voices carried in the morning

Can't say enough great things about this property. The location is fantastic (as long as you want to be in the middle of a fun and busy area packed with lots of great bars, restaurants and shops), the rooftop bar has spectacular views, the rooms are very well appointed and feel huge because of the layout, and the service was very attentive. And it really wasn't that expensive, relative to some other more well-known properties on King Street. All around, we had a great experience and would highly recommend The Nickel!

The rooms was surprisingly spacious. I booked a courtyard room that walked out into the courtyard. So beautiful. The room was very comfortable. The staff was so welcoming at check in. I parked at the parking garage closest to the hotel. It was a short walk but if you have your arms full, better to unload at the lobby first. We were there to see a band play at charleston music hall just 2 blocks over. Not a long walk but you pass plenty of dining options along the route. Location is great for exploring shops and restaurants. I will definitely come back.
