Absolutely a superb (5-Star) experience; from check-in to my one night’s stay to my check-out, The Pinch property has cornered the market on Par Excellence! I eagerly anticipate my next stay there … Highest Recommendation for The Pinch as a first-choice while staying in Charleston.

The Pinch is in the perfect location to walk around and get to know Charleston. It is a stunning property. It feels like a home away from home. Amazing restaurants. The service is wonderful. I look forward to staying here again.

Great location clean spacious room and bikes to borrow were just a few things I loved about this hotel.
Coreen, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

The location and service were excellent. There was no dresser in the room which was inconvenient. Lack of dining and refreshments until after 5:00 PM was inconvenient.
Steven, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

A wonderful property and the most friendly staff! Check-in and valet process were effortless; we even got a delicious welcome drink. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable …it was easy to relax and enjoy our vacation. The only negative was that the windows were not as soundproof, and noisy cars and people outside were audible at night. Overall a wonderful stay though; we’d definitely stay here again!
Carolin, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Beautiful hotel. Rooms were beyond average hotel rooms. Great staff and accommodations. Perfect location to downtown king street. Over all A stay
Camryn, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The pinch was amazing. The staff were so helpful and kind. The restaurants were also amazing. Avery and Ang were our servers abs they took great care of us.
Chi-Ante, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

We loved our dinner next door and the room was beautiful, albeit no view or balcony. The only real negative feedback we have was that, despite the noise machine they provide for you, we did not sleep at all. The traffic noise was horrible all night and there was screaming, loud motorcycles, and loud traffic noise coming at all hours of the night. Perhaps Friday night on and around King Street is too rowdy but we never had this problem at other hotels on the same road. We could hear EVERYTHING and was jolted out of bed multiple times with loud banging and motorcycles/motorbikes. Perhaps better insulted windows would solve this problem.
Megan, 1-night trip
