“Hilton Garden Inn Charleston Waterfront/Downtown earns praise for its enviable location along the Ashley River and proximity to MUSC and the VA. I appreciate that the rooftop bar and lounge provide a unique vantage point, while secure, free parking adds considerable value. It's a solid choice, particularly for those who prioritize convenience and views without being directly in the downtown bustle.”
