Breeze past a lush line of live oaks and pretty seasonal blooms to reach the elegantly accommodating Residence Inn Charleston Downtown/Riverview. Located just a shell’s throw away from the Ashley River, this posh hotel has a surprisingly quiet setting that feels worlds away, but which is actually just a few minutes’ drive from some of the city’s top attractions.

The Residence Inn Charleston Downtown/Riverview is located on the western edge of the riverfront, and is nicely close to the James Island Parkway and US Highway 17 for easy trips into the heart of the downtown area. A host of marinas, fishing charter businesses, and other maritime services are also found in the immediate neighborhood, and guests will find plenty of reasons to relax without leaving the premises, thanks to a daily hot breakfast and weeknight drinks, an on-site restaurant and lounge, an outdoor swimming pool, a hot tub, and a fitness center. The rooms are modern and inviting, with extra perks that include free wireless internet access, flat screen TVs, full kitchens, and even fireplaces and sleeper sofas. With elegant surroundings inside and out, the Residence Inn Charleston Downtown/Riverview is a fine spot for a deliciously lingering stay on the fringes of Downtown Charleston.
