The Cooper
Charleston, United States · ★★★★★ · 9.8/10 Exceptional · guest rating
New luxury hotel in Charleston, with a marina, spa, pool and three restaurants, a minute from Waterfront Park and near the market and Rainbow Row.
The Cooper is at 176 Concord Street, in Charleston's historic district, beside the river and facing the marina. It is a new hotel, so it has few reviews, and those it has rate it very highly. Wide hallways with geometric floors, guest rooms with balconies and gardens with tree-lined paths show careful design. Its location, a minute from Waterfront Park, lets you explore much of the historic district on foot.
On site are three restaurants, including Mediterranean cuisine, a cafe, shops, a spa with aromatherapy and hydrotherapy, and a 24-hour gym with fitness classes. Boat outings are also available. Bicycles can be rented, and the hotel lists airport transfers on request; ask how to arrange one. It also has an event hall and conference center, useful for business travelers and for guests attending weddings or other events.
