Across the reviews, The Iris stands out for its clean, modern, apartment‑style suites with thoughtful extras, a friendly, responsive team, and a walkable location near King Street that feels secure with keyless entry and on‑site parking options.
Guests praise in‑room amenities like full kitchens, washer/dryer combos, espresso and coffee machines, sound machines, and welcome gifts. Common caveats include paid carousel parking that can be confusing or size‑limited, occasional thermostat restrictions, rare noise or water/comfort issues, and uneven clarity around fees or EV charging. Expect a comfortable, well‑equipped base for exploring Charleston on foot.

Outstanding amenities, the apartment is thoughtfully designed, the staff even left a welcome gift 💝! Quite needed, after a long drive! Parking instructions are very clear and even though it was the first time using the carousel parking, it all seemed pretty intuitive. Check-in was seamless, and staff extremely patient in explaining all the functionalities available at THE IRIS

I had an excellent stay at The Iris. The suits are well appointed and clean. Beds and pillows are very comfortable, towels are plush, kitchenette is well equipped and basics as oil spray, sugar, creamer and coffee are provided. The Dyson hair dryer is a plus. There’s plenty closet space, a TV in the sleeping area and another on the sitting area. For $25 a night they provide carrousel parking onsite which is very convenient. The area feels safe and very convenient to dining and shopping yet quiet enough to not bother you at night. The only thing I would like to see different is the washer/dryer combo to be replaced by washer & dryer as it takes a long time to complete a cycle (the shorter cycle being 2:08 hours but I understand that for space purposes it may not be possible. Toiletries are above average as well. Communication was excellent. I’d stay again in a heartbeat. I forgot to take photos of the inside but here are some of the outdoor space on the second floor.

expecting EV charger available hotel but instead lost easy access to the car and no access to charger at all. both caused huge convenience. I appreciated the cleanliness of hotel and management trying their best, however the inconvenience is beyond on top of hotel and parking expense.

We loved The Iris for our week in Charleston. Great location just a short walk from King Street and situated in a cool neighborhood within walking distance to fun restaurants and bars. We walked all over town from here. Our unit was super clean and well-appointed for the two of us. The bed was comfy, the kitchen and bath very modern and the living space was cozy but big enough to watch TV, snack and relax. We loved the "patio" space just outside our door as we chatted with other guests coming and going. The staff was VERY accommodating, helping us with our EV charger parking space. If you have a car, I recommend paying the extra parking fee as the on-site carousel is easy to use and safe. We will certainly stay here again and recommend to friends.

Our vehicle was too big to use the carousel so we had to park about a half mile away, which was inconvenient with two young children. Next time we'll get a smaller car.

This is a cute property in a great location! It was modern and clean. It even had a washer/ dryer if you need it. Everything is done via technology, from check in to parking, to check out. They did have staff on site to help navigate all of it and she was super helpful. The one lane entrance/ exit was the only downfall.

We had a fantastic weekend at this hotel. The parking carousel made parking easy, and the room had a Dyson hair dryer and a fully functioning kitchen— way better than your typical hotels. The sound machine by the bed ensured a peaceful sleep, and the Halloween decor added a fun, festive touch. Highly recommend it for a comfortable and enjoyable stay!

The Iris is a wonderful place to stay if you are looking to experience downtown Charleston. Just a block off of King Street, the property is within walking distance of the many shops, restaurants, bars, and entertainment venues of Charleston's Historic District. The property and room themselves are clean, modern, and inviting. Absolutely loved our stay here and will come back!

We had a great stay at the Iris. Inside and outside of the property was very nice and clean. It seemed like a quiet area yet it was a walkable distance to downtown. The apartment itself had everything we needed and a few nice little touches like the white noise machine and bottle of wine/waters. Our only issue was not being able to adjust the thermostat lower than the specific temp they set which made the unit feel a bit warm at times. However, I’d love to stay here again and would recommend it. Thanks!

Great location for walking down King Street, and when we were tired, there were free shuttles that brought us back within a couple of blocks. The hotel staff were very attentive. The rooms were spacious and comfortable. And the price was in a range that I felt we could afford, unlike most of the hotels in central Charleston.

My daughter and I stayed here when we toured the College of Charleston and loved it! It was only a 10-15 minute walk there and our room was like a studio apartment! So cute and savvy use of the space. Super clean and bright. Huge shower and the most comfortable bed I’ve slept on in a hotel. So many extras too- we loved the white noise machine and large TVs and tons of closet space. We cooked one of our meals there and all the cookware, dishes, utensils were there- easy peasy! The car carousel was a cool ingenious way to “park” so many cars. They give easy directions on how to use. I watched the video once and my 16 year old parked the car! The only thing I would mention is it is a 30 minute walk to the popular spots on King’s street- no problem with comfy tennis shoes, otherwise get Uber or there are bike taxis as well. We would definitely stay again. Easy check in and out.

PROS - Great location, interesting bars and restaurants close by. - Big city loft-like environment, entered straight from the sidewalk. Spacious, double-height ceilings. Bright white-washed walls & electronic roller blinds for the floor-to-ceiling, wrap-around windows (previously must have been a shop front). - Well stocked kitchen. Just missing a tea kettle! - Lovely welcome gifts. - Modern, sleek bathroom. - Incredibly clean throughout. CONS - The apartment felt big and airy, but it was not cosy and felt very impersonal. Need more soft furnishings (& blankets) to absorb noise & art on the walls. - Small bedroom space. - The sofa and bed were uncomfortable - far, far too hard. - The apartment is advertised to sleep four people, however, with the amount of light coming into the living area & the hard sofa, I do not agree. - We couldn’t change the thermostat. - Water pressure and temperature in the shower was poor/too cold. - The edges of the window blinds don’t fully cover the windows - gaps at the sides - so if this might bother you, I’d opt for one of the internal apartments instead. - The parking is too expensive - $25/day. We parked round the corner (five min walk) and three days cost us around $42, not $75! - The check in is 4pm (at which point the day is pretty much done!) and the check out is 11am. When I enquired if we could get half an hour grace on checking out, I was told it would be a $75 surcharge!

We loved The Iris for our week in Charleston. Great location just a short walk from King Street and situated in a cool neighborhood within walking distance to fun restaurants and bars. We walked all over town from here. Our unit was super clean and well-appointed for the two of us. The bed was comfy, the kitchen and bath very modern and the living space was cozy but big enough to watch TV, snack and relax. We loved the "patio" space just outside our door as we chatted with other guests coming and going. The staff was VERY accommodating, helping us with our EV charger parking space. If you have a car, I recommend paying the extra parking fee as the on-site carousel is easy to use and safe. We will certainly stay here again and recommend to friends.

My sister and I took a trip to Charleston and stayed here and absolutely loved it! It is walking distance to so many things and the rooms are beautiful! They provided everything that is needed (even a step stool to reach the high cabinets for us short people!) We had a problem with our shower drain, but maintenance was very prompt and efficient. The staff was also very responsive and apologetic for the situation. The parking carousel seemed very scary at first, but once you got the hang of it, it wasn’t bad at all! We loved staying here and will be staying here again on our next trip!

lovely stay - weird that there wasn't a front desk to check in with and lots of hidden costs. Communication about costs was not clear and then I was locked in to a reservation I could not change

Great location for walking down King Street, and when we were tired, there were free shuttles that brought us back within a couple of blocks. The hotel staff were very attentive. The rooms were spacious and comfortable. And the price was in a range that I felt we could afford, unlike most of the hotels in central Charleston.

Location
Walkable to King Street and numerous restaurants and bars, with several guests noting a generally safe, quieter neighborhood just outside the busiest core. Some mention college‑area noise, longer walks to the waterfront, or a nearby block that feels less polished.

I stayed here with my two teenage daughters for a mom and daughter trip. They loved the location for walking and it’s not directly in the downtown area so the night was much quieter. We felt very safe as the building was super secure.

Nice, very clean and had all necessary items for a stay. Would have given a five but the location was a block away from a somewhat shady area. The hotel itself was very protected and safe though, gated etc… pleasant stay.

My daughter and I stayed here when we toured the College of Charleston and loved it! It was only a 10-15 minute walk there and our room was like a studio apartment! So cute and savvy use of the space. Super clean and bright. Huge shower and the most comfortable bed I’ve slept on in a hotel. So many extras too- we loved the white noise machine and large TVs and tons of closet space. We cooked one of our meals there and all the cookware, dishes, utensils were there- easy peasy! The car carousel was a cool ingenious way to “park” so many cars. They give easy directions on how to use. I watched the video once and my 16 year old parked the car! The only thing I would mention is it is a 30 minute walk to the popular spots on King’s street- no problem with comfy tennis shoes, otherwise get Uber or there are bike taxis as well. We would definitely stay again. Easy check in and out.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Iris! The room was beautiful, clean, and the staff was very welcoming. The area was a little noisy- to be expected so close to the college area though. Overall for what you get; being walking distance to King St, the room, and the staff; the price is unbeatable.

This is such a fantastic property! It's rare to read so many glowing reviews and not be a little skeptical, but The Iris is truly the real deal. The apartment is a great use of space with adorable furnishings and decor, lots of amenities (welcome wine and chocolate, sound machine, Nespresso and Keurig machine, extra pillows), and thorough communication. The welcome email/text was very detailed and included everything we needed for check in. The parking carousel was new to us, but the welcome info included detailed instructions and a YouTube link to make it easy to use. A welcome binder in the apartment was also very helpful, and we enjoyed restaurant suggestions! The neighborhood is super walkable and has lots of "off the beaten path" coffee shops, brunch, dining options, and beautiful architecture. It is walkable to King St for shopping but a pretty long walk to the Charleston waterfront and market. It was about $7-8 for Uber to those areas, though. Truly, this is such a great property and we had no complaints. Will stay here again if we get the chance!

Outstanding amenities, the apartment is thoughtfully designed, the staff even left a welcome gift 💝! Quite needed, after a long drive! Parking instructions are very clear and even though it was the first time using the carousel parking, it all seemed pretty intuitive.

I had an excellent stay at The Iris. The suits are well appointed and clean. Beds and pillows are very comfortable, towels are plush, kitchenette is well equipped and basics as oil spray, sugar, creamer and coffee are provided. The Dyson hair dryer is a plus. There’s plenty closet space, a TV in the sleeping area and another on the sitting area. For $25 a night they provide carrousel parking onsite which is very convenient. The area feels safe and very convenient to dining and shopping yet quiet enough to not bother you at night. The only thing I would like to see different is the washer/dryer combo to be replaced by washer & dryer as it takes a long time to complete a cycle (the shorter cycle being 2:08 hours but I understand that for space purposes it may not be possible. Toiletries are above average as well. Communication was excellent. I’d stay again in a heartbeat. I forgot to take photos of the inside but here are some of the outdoor space on the second floor.

The keyless entry worked flawlessly. The property was secure and well lite. We entered the first floor condo to be greeted by a handwritten note and gift bag, which included a bottle of wine and chocolate. Nice touch! The condo was clean and the furniture was comfortable. Loved the dual-showerhead action. I didn't care for the shampoo/conditioner product - left my hair feeling dry so I was glad I brought backup. The body wash was fine. I didn't use the washer/dryer, but they provided everything you need in case you wanted to do laundry. I especially loved that they didn't expect you to take out the trash or load the dishwasher!! Bonus touch! Appreciated the keurig coffee and espresso machines with multiple choices of pods, sugar & creamer on site! Walking distance (1/2 mile) to Leon's Poultry & Oysters!! Delish!!! There is construction going on in the neighborhood, but once you're in the condo it is peaceful, quiet and relaxing. We didn't need it, but they do have a parking "tower" on the property. We loved our stay and would recommend The Iris

Loved this little gem!! Upon entering, we met a wonderful young woman who works at the property and was happy to hear we were from the same neck of the woods. We were treated with a bottle of wine, chocolate and coffee so what could go wrong?! Our room was on the ground floor and it was cozy, and super clean! Loved all the amenities that were included. It was a quick walk to King Street and they had everything you could imagine as far as coffee shops, lovely stores, restaurants, and bars. Would definitely stay again if we are back to Charleston.

Of the hotels we’ve stayed at this was definitely one of the cleanest. There was a very sweet handwritten note with a bottle of wine and some goodie’s for our stay. We loved the noise machine—it’s hardly noticeable—and having both a nespresso and keurig brought my husband joy, we just needed more pods for his twice daily cups. The location is just a few blocks from the busiest road, King Street, but be prepared for lots of walking! It was a joy to stay at Hotel Iris!

Great place to stay and we would stay there again! Loved the location and the super communicative hosts. Don't be intimidated by the parking carousel; it was very easy to use. The only time it was inconvenient was when multiple cars needed to come and go at the same time, but that only happened one or two times during our stay and didn't affect our time too much. Our only complaint was the lack of a door to the bedroom; it was just a curtain. If it were just me and my husband staying there, it wouldn't have been an issue but we were traveling with our daughter and it would have been nice to have a door to shut out the light from the living area more and additional privacy.

The room was fabulous! My only complaint would be the parking situation. My car was 1 inch too big to park at the hotel carousel, so we had to park at a nearby parking garage. That ended up being very expensive!! And I was afraid to walk back to the hotel from the parking garage by myself in the dark.
