Cramped room and "balcony" which is really a chair outside of the door to your room on a shared balcony/path surrounding the hotel. We both got bruised up from hitting the bed when trying to come in and out of the room. Could have been better kept. Coffe maker was dirty with old coffee in it and no new packets.... More

We had never been to Isle of Palms, or the Seaside Inn before. But we will definitely be back! The hotel was gorgeous, and the rooms were delicately decorative in island fashion. The bathroom was definitely something u would see in a magazine! The entire staff was accommodating and attentive to all our needs. The assistant general manager, Ms. Shauna... More

My wife and I stayed for 4 nights in mid-April and had a great time. The location is terrific...on the beach and easy walking distance to some restaurants / bars. The room was a tad on the small side we were generally out and about most of the days so this wasn't an issue. The only negative is the parking...there... More

We had a wonderful stay. Very affordable! Located right on the beach. Parking was included. Service was exceptional. Continential breakfast was perfect to start the morning. Located withing walking distance to little shops and restaurants. The room was small, however for sleeping it was perfect--we chose an economy sized room specifically for this purpose. I would and do recommend this... More

The location was great. It was nice to be able to hit the beach for a while, then walk to any of the restraurants/bars on the IOP strip. This property is directly next door to the Windjammer beach bar, a great little live music venue. Downtown, historic Charleston was only about 15-20 minutes away. The room was a bit nicer... More

My husband and I recently stayed at the Seaside Inn while touring Charleston. I was a bit apprehensive after reading some of the reviews, but we wanted to stay oceanfront, directly on the beach, so I decided to give it a try. We had a third floor room, oceanfront, and it was indeed that - we had a wonderful view... More

The location is great and if you are lucky to have one of the few ocean front rooms you maybe could overlook the lack of cleanliness. We had no view however so it made it hard to overlook. We had dirty sheets and blankets which made me question if the whole room was dirty. Sand in the sheets and top... More

We had a great experience staying at this property. I can't say enough about the location of this property. The beach was just steps away and was just perfect. Shops and restaurants were in walking distance. You really don't have to get in the car for your entire stay unless making the short drive to downtown to do some sightseeing.... More

We were not expecting the Ritz, and we didn't receive the Ritz. What we did receive was a clean, somewhat basic hotel in the heart of Isle of Palms, close to shops and restaurants.

This is a wonderful location, loved that it was right on the beach, great shops and food(pizza @ Luke and Ollies) in the area...The beds were so comfortable, staff was amazing and friendly. If you are looking for a 4 Star Hotel then you should stay somewhere in Charleston.... This Hotel is small and comfortable.
