Holiday Inn Express Charleston Ashley River

This reinvented downtown hotel opened with the highest amount of pre-booked business of any IHG-branded property and has had 97% average occupancy

This former 1950’s era, Best Western hotel with a burned out kitchen was transformed into a Holiday Inn Express reflecting IHG’s new brand standards.  The 8-story hotel features 153 rooms, meeting rooms, and restaurant / dining facilities seating 65.  Working with the city’s Board of Architectural Review, the design team gave the hotel a new street presence and front door with welcoming street-side patios and terraces as well as a Great Room taking advantage of its Ashley River views.  Unanimously approved by the BAR, it has become the gateway and quality standard for the Gateway Redevelopment District in Charleston, SC and supports its Citadel / Medical Center area.
