The Nickel Hotel

Tucked into Charleston's vibrant Cannonborough neighborhood, The Nickel Hotel is a stylish new addition to Upper King Street. Designed in collaboration with Morris Adjmi Architects, this five-story boutique hotel blends old-world charm with modern elegance, offering 50 residential-style rooms and suites, each with full kitchens, in-room laundry, and thoughtful design touches.

Inside, guests can unwind in the lush central courtyard, sip espresso or evening cocktails at Bar Daniel, or soak up skyline views from the soon-to-open Rosemary Rose rooftop bar. A refined mix of vintage decor and contemporary comfort runs throughout the property, from antique-inspired ironwork and French tapestries to marble countertops and oak flooring.

Whether you are here for a weekend getaway or a longer stay, The Nickel delivers a polished, welcoming experience that feels right at home in Charleston's evolving cultural landscape.
