ROOMS

Rooms are limited; please be timely in making your reservations.  Due to the busy time of year and all of the wonderful events taking place in Charleston, additional rooms will not be requested as only a specific number of rooms at the group rate were contracted with each hotel. Once the group blocks have all been reserved, you may be able to reserve rooms outside of the group rate block depending on room availability. Thank you for your attention to this detail and your understanding. 

There are many other hotels in the Charleston area.  However, we cannot guarantee their availability or their quoted rates.  To view other local lodging options, please visit https://charlestonwv.com/places-to-stay/.
