If you ask for a room facing the harbor, you can gaze out onto the kid-friendly fountain and 8 acres of Waterfront Park.

"A sleek hotel just south of Charleston's historic city market, The Spectator channels 1920s glam with accents like hand painted wallpaper, a gilded elevator, and mirrored ceilings." Full review

Be sure to do cocktails at the bar in the darkly paneled, book-lined lounge just off the lobby.
