Offering proximity to Shutes Folly Island, which is approximately a 20-minute walk away, the 3-star King Charles Inn Charleston also provides guests with a private parking garage on site. Boasting an outdoor swimming pool, this Charleston hotel is nestled at a 1 km distance from natural attractions like the eight-acre Joe Riley Waterfront Park.
