The Dewberry Charleston

The Dewberry Charleston is the most design-celebrated and architecturally distinguished boutique luxury hotel in Charleston, a mid-century modern property in the restored 1964 Federal Building in the heart of downtown whose marble lobby, vintage furnishings sourced from across the American South, and culinary program have established it as the most visually and intellectually sophisticated hotel opening in the city's recent history. The Federal Building's clean mid-century lines and the property's commitment to an American design narrative rooted in the South give it a character and point of view that is genuinely unlike the antebellum-themed historic hotel alternatives that define the Charleston market, and the downtown location places groups within walking distance of the entire cultural and culinary geography of one of the most celebrated food and architecture cities in America. For planners booking Charleston programs for groups whose participants appreciate mid-century design, a curated American aesthetic, and a hotel with a genuine intellectual and visual identity, The Dewberry is the most design-distinguished and conceptually considered choice in the market. Similar properties worth benchmarking include Zero George Street and Emeline Charleston.
