"Opened in 2021, this 50-room boutique hotel marries modern comforts with immediate access to 18th-century Charleston: a short stroll puts you on the uneven brick of historic Philadelphia Alley lined with camellias, while the hotel itself offers crisp, minimal, and spacious rooms with floor-to-ceiling windows, double-paneled privacy sheers, and state-of-the-art soundproofing. Its standout feature is the rooftop terrace cresting the mature treeline of the French Quarter, where guests take morning coffee at sunrise, lounge on cushioned wicker with a book from the Clubroom library, sip sunset cocktails, or stargaze late at night." - CNT Editors
