Top Colonial Lake Hotel Reviews

The Vendue

10/10 Excellent

"The property was gorgeous! Our room was decorated in red, white, and black with unique pictures on the walls. There was a bag of pastries and fruit on the door handle every morning which was very nice. My only suggestion would be to change it up daily so it’s different pastries and fruit. We loved the hotel."

The Francis Marion Hotel

8/10 Good

"Bathroom was small but everything else was great!"

The Restoration

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic room, we were in the residence for our honeymoon and it felt like a home away from home. All the staff were super friendly and helpful, from taking us in the jeep to the waterfront, to helping us at 539"

The Palmetto Hotel

8/10 Good

"Overall, we enjoyed our stay, and there were many aspects of the hotel we appreciated. The lobby was beautiful and inviting, and the property consistently smelled wonderful. Our bed was exceptionally comfortable, and the peaceful atmosphere allowed us to sleep soundly. Breakfast was fresh and delicious, and the coffee was outstanding! The location was another highlight, with nearly everything we wanted to explore within walking distance. However, a few areas fell short of expectations, particularly considering the substantial nightly rate. While cleanliness was generally acceptable, certain details could have received more attention. We were also disappointed that several amenities required additional fees, making the experience feel less inclusive than anticipated. Although the staff was friendly and courteous, communication and follow-through could be improved. We reported that our room’s refrigerator wasn’t functioning and were assured maintenance would come, but no one arrived. After following up the next day, we learned it was actually a cooler (it did not look like a cooler). Clearer communication initially would have spared us the unnecessary wait. Despite these shortcomings, we genuinely enjoyed our stay. The beautiful atmosphere, comfortable accommodations, excellent breakfast, and convenient location were memorable. With greater attention to detail, more responsive service, and better value in its amenities, this hotel could easily provide a five-star experience."
