The Francis Marion Hotel

The Francis Marion Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"This hotel is one of my favorites. It is the perfect spot to see all of downtown Charlestown. The food is amazing!! We had room service two nights and the food was top notch and the staff who brought our food were the nicest. We used the valet parking and the young kid that helped us was just the sweetest. We needed extra shampoo one night and within five minutes of calling we had shampoo. Love everything about this hotel and would never stay anywhere else."
