What guests say
9.2 / 10 · Wonderful on Booking.com, from 528 guest reviews
The Market Pavilion Hotel earns overwhelmingly positive sentiment, with guests consistently celebrating its unbeatable central Charleston location, attentive staff, and the rooftop pool and bar as standout amenities. The complimentary floor-level coffee and pastry service is a much-loved touch, though some guests wish the in-house restaurant offered a fuller breakfast. A handful of guests flagged practical frustrations — no pool shade, poor room views that staff declined to address, and an inflexible cancellation policy — but these are minor voices against a largely delighted majority.
