lindanick Posted May 7, 2007 #1 Share Posted May 7, 2007 I am looking for a hotel or motel in the Charleston area that we can stay pre cruise and maybe even park the car there. Any options? Linda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wraithe Posted May 8, 2007 #2 Share Posted May 8, 2007 Here's a link to Choice Hotel options starting in the Charleston peninsula and working up toward Goose Creek. If you've never been to Charleston, it's basically 4 seperate areas, starting with the Charleston peninsula, then N. Charleston, then Goose Creek and Summerville. The Charleston Port Authority cruise terminal is in donwtown Charleston, Patriots Point (nice museum, hotels and golf) is in Mt. Pleasant, across the river from Charleston, the airport/AFB is in N. Charleston. You'll have to call the individual hotels to find out about Park & Cruise, and I doubt that there are shuttles to the pier, but you never know. If you're military, there's an option to try and get lodging at the AFB Inns of Charleston or at Foster Creek Villa's on the Naval Weapons Station.

BlueHerons Posted May 8, 2007 #4 Share Posted May 8, 2007 I am looking for a hotel or motel in the Charleston area that we can stay pre cruise and maybe even park the car there. Any options? Linda Linda, if you are spending any time at all I highly suggest staying downtown. You will not find free parking but there is parking at the cruise terminal. All of downtown Charleston is walkable and it is the prettiest city in the US! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lulachick Posted May 22, 2007 #5 Share Posted May 22, 2007 I am staying in Charleston on May 27, 2007 at Springhill Suites in downtown Charleston. I just talked to them and they are willing to let us leave our vehicle there without any additional cost. I did not ask if there was a shuttle or not. Hope this helps.

SueF Posted May 25, 2007 #6 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Lula, How much did it end up costing you to stay there? Just curious! :) Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richkinkade Posted May 25, 2007 #7 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Last year I stayed and parked at the Radisson Hotel Charleston Airport in north Charleston. It included breakfast and a shuttle and was cheaper than parking for 7 days at the pier. You'd have to call to get the current rate. http://www.radisson.com/webExtra.do?key=&hotelCode=SCCHARNO&rmcCode=LOWESTWB&promotionalCode=HOTDEAL&selectedBrandCodes=&numberChildren=&hotelBrandCode=RAD&corporateAccountID=&backUri=%252Freservation%252FrateSearch.do%253FcheckoutDate%253D10%25252F16%25252F2007%2526hotelsWithin%253D25.0%2526selectedCrossBrandSearchCodes%253DRAD%2526occupancyForm%25255B0%25255D.numberChildren%253D0%2526rmcCode%253DLOWESTWB%2526attractionId%253D769%2526corporateAccountID%253D%2526currencyCode%253D%2526numberRooms%253D1%2526rateType%253D%2526checkinDate%253D10%25252F15%25252F2007%2526crossBrandSearch%253D%2526occupancyForm%25255B0%25255D.numberAdults%253D2%2526hotelCode%253DSCCHARNO%2526promotionalCode%253DHOTDEAL%2526sortBy%253Ddistance%2526cityId%253D268%2526goldRewardsNumber%253D%2526viewAllHotelRates%253Dtrue%2526travelAgentID%253D&numberAdults=&travelAgentID== Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
have fun now Posted July 3, 2007 #8 Share Posted July 3, 2007 We stayed at the Wingate Inn, in North Charleston, the night before departure. New, clean, easy access in safe location near Tanger Mall. Nice deal from them: free parking, 2 queen beds, complimentary cocktails 5-7, free round-trip shuttle to port, free breakfast............all for 99.00. Susan was our contact. You have to book thru their local phone number. The 800 number won't be able to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCmom Posted July 3, 2007 #9 Share Posted July 3, 2007 We also stayed at the Radisson North Charleston, and do NOT recommend it. OUr shuttle to the port was late (our reservation was for 11:30, we actually got on the shuttle at 1:30). Coming back, we would have had to wait over 1 hour in the sun, on the street with our luggage to get back to the hotel. We gave up and paid for a taxi.
