The Ryder Hotel is such a cute hotel! It has a modern, beachy, Palm Springs vibe with a pink and green theme throughout. It was the perfect place to take my Mother-in-law! Little Palm (the in-hotel restaurant) has fantastic cocktails and great food that transports you to a tropical beach outside of the country. The Cuban sandwich, yucca fries, guacamole, and poke bowl were delicious and the service was very attentive and kind! Clayton, the valet, was also very nice and informative about the hotel and surrounding area. Highly recommend the Ryder Hotel and Little Palm! I can’t wait to return for a girl’s weekend with my best friend!

Our stay at the Ryder Hotel was a perfect getaway. The value and the extra touches really set it apart from other hotels in downtown Charleston. We loved the ability to check out a few complimentary beach chairs and paddle ball set for our day trip to Folly Beach. The bar offerings and staff were fantastic, also. The beds were comfy, the rooms were clean, and the ambience was uniquely retro yet modern. We will definitely be staying here again.

The bartender, didn’t get his name, John? Anyway, he was welcoming and professional. We had drink chips from sister property, the Emeline. Was very professional and helpful. Cool pool atmosphere for the younger crowd. We really enjoyed our visit. Thank you! Rory and Robert

This hotel is adorable in the online photos. Our group of girlfriends booked it because there was a cute pool scene. We didn’t get in the pool once. Why? It was tiny and packed with people- way too crowded. A couple of the people in our group tried calling the front desk prior to arrival. No one ever answers the phone! Check in staff was rude, restaurant staff (especially one day f the hosts) was rude. Bathrooms have poor lighting for makeup application. The time it took us to hwy from the check in to our room was ridiculous. Allow for 8-10 minutes to get to your room. The room rates are extremely expensive for this level of inconvenience. I’m will never stay here again.

We loved staying at The Ryder for a long girl’s weekend! The valet, Clayton, greeted us and was so friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The Hotel itself was so cute and they accommodated our request for a refrigerator for our room. The Gear Garage was great, too, as we borrowed chairs for the beach. The location was perfect as well! We will come again! Thank you for everything!
