Bella is a nice, newer hotel with contemporary room decor, nice beds, bathrooms etc. The valet is, almost mandatory garage parking. Our walk to the center of the French Quarter was about 1/2 mile. The staff was super helpful.

Our view was a brick wall and the sink was incredibly small making it impossible for 2 women to get ready and put toiletries. There are no amenities and the price was rather high given all these factors.

Hotel Bella Grace is walking distance to the main shops on King Street. There's a nice park to hang out (play catch or frisbee) nearby. Also, it's walking distance to the Children's museum and the Best Friend Train Museum. There was a lot do within walking distance, but we also took our car and drove to other places for other activities.

Checking in and out of the hotel felt a bit awkward - I did not feel welcome. The valet was wonderful and helped me find a place to park my oversized van. The room was well-designed.

This is my fourth stay at Hotel Bella Grace and this experience did not meet my expectations in terms of the cleanliness and quality of furnishings in my room. Luckily, I travel with sanitizing wipes and spray but I should not have to clean obvious stains or marks off of the toilet, walls, and shower upon arrival.

The hotel was very clean and the rooms were large and comfortable. It’s about 10 minutes walking distance to Charleston market, king’s street night life and Charleston museum. What we didn’t like about the hotel was the lack of information. The staff didn’t seem either helpful or knowledgeable. In addition to that, when we called the reception desk to let them know it takes for ever for the shower to get warm or there is no shampoo in the container, no body answered the phone. The rooms are not very quiet. You can hear elevator and people’s talk in the hallway.

Property was clean. Valet/bellman was very nice. Room was very a loud noisy due to a vibrating sound coming from the walls and ceiling all night like someone was parked outside my window with a subwoofer in their car turned up. I got 2 hours sleep with earplugs in. I spoke to front desk 2X the next morning and was brushed of with I will let my manger know - sorry. Then I followed up with same person (2 hours later) and asked if she had talked with the manager and the response was “she is going to check on it” It has been 24 hours and I have not heard anything. Room was nice and clean and the in room amenities were nice.

Beautiful, modern property and the staff were all very helpful! Easy walk through the park to upper King St. shops and restaurants. It’s a further 10-15 minute walk to the waterfront, City Market and museums. The parking valet was a bit much so we used the Marion Sq. garage just few blocks away.

The Bella Grace is a beautiful, new hotel. The restaurant next door, The Delaney Oyster House is a great spot for brunch on the porch, dinner or just drinks at the lovely bar. There is a great park on the next block where there’s a market on Saturdays. The room was newly Redon and super clean. The bed was very comfortable and there were actually channels to watch. We loved having the “living room/kitchen” area. The room was extremely loud though, at first we thought it was the refrigerator, then the air conditioning, but later realized we were next to a closet making all the noise. Loved the walk to King St and Meeting St. It was just a great place in a great location. The valet guys were actually super helpful.

This may be the worst hotel I have ever stayed at. The price was outrageous for the poor quality of service and amenities. The a/c system was so loud it was unbearable. When I called I was to that was just the way it was. No fix, no suggestions to make it more tolerable. The vinyl flooring was peeling up in several places. There were not enough towels and they had to wash more (while we waited to shower) before they could deliver more. We were in a handicapped accessible room with a roll-in shower. The water leaked halfway across the bathroom. No bath mats and not enough towels to clean up to make safe to walk in the bathroom. The coffee maker didn’t work (so loud it would wake the dead and only made a teaspoon of coffee). I brought all these issues to the attention of the front desk and NOTHING was done. No offer of compensation. Nothing. There were no amenities. For $800 per night it was outrageous. Front desk staff was rude. The only staff that were terrific were the valets. Save your money and stay ANYWHERE but here

The hotel is relatively small and quiet, but the rooms are big with a small kitchenette. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The location was excellent, with easy walking distance to everything! The hotel also offered many suggestions for where to go to eat and for entertainment. Charleston is a wonderful city, and I loved staying at the Hotel Bella Grace. I’d highly recommend it, and would stay there again.
