Charleston’s hospitality industry is experiencing a significant growth spurt as new hotel developments and renovations progress in 2025. The city is witnessing a turnaround following years of stagnation, with major projects like the Drury Plaza Hotel and The Cooper adding hundreds of rooms. Additionally, ongoing renovations at Charleston Place Hotel are enhancing luxury accommodations. The influx of tourists eager to explore Charleston’s culture, alongside strategic investments in the hospitality sector, promises an exciting transformation in the local hotel landscape.
As Charleston shakes off the winter chill, the hospitality scene is heating up in a major way. January 6, 2025, brings windy conditions and rain to the historic city, with temperatures fluctuating between 64°F and a cool 55°F. With forecasts predicting a 70% chance of rainfall throughout the day, visitors may find indoor attractions especially appealing. Windy afternoons and clear nighttime skies may encourage more travelers to venture out to enjoy Charleston’s vibrant nightlife and burgeoning hotel offerings.
Charleston’s hotel sector is currently witnessing a remarkable turnaround, buoyed by an influx of visitors and strategic development initiatives. The recent boom in hotel construction is reminiscent of a phoenix rising from the ashes, as the area is finally breaking free from a nearly five-year plateau in new inventory. According to a report from the commercial real estate firm Colliers, the city is on the cusp of an exciting phase of growth, with strong activity predicted through 2026.
The spotlight shines on the ongoing construction of the Drury Plaza Hotel in North Charleston, which broke ground in March 2024. This is just one of several projects that demonstrate Charleston’s commitment to enhancing its tourism infrastructure. Currently, a total of 639 hotel rooms are under construction in the region, signaling a positive shift in the marketplace.
In addition to expanding hotel room inventory, there’s a wave of anticipated acquisitions as hotel owners aim to capitalize on the post-pandemic profitability of Charleston’s hospitality market. Colliers predicts an increase in hotel ownership changes, as prior stakeholders look to sell their thriving properties. Among the most eagerly awaited new developments is The Cooper, a sister property to The Charleston Place, which will add 209 rooms to the area.
Another thrilling project is on the horizon, with plans for a new 10-story hotel featuring 250 rooms along the bustling Morrison Drive. This ambitious development, still awaiting approval from the City of Charleston’s Technical Review Committee, promises a rooftop restaurant, bar, and pool, enhancing the waterfront experience.
The luxurious Charleston Place Hotel is also in the spotlight, having completed the first phase of a staggering $150 million renovation. These renovations focus on revamping banquet and event spaces and aim to elevate the guest experience. While renovations continue, the hotel remains open, catering to both locals and tourists alike, creating a refined environment for a variety of events.
The hospitality growth in Charleston is further fueled by the return of tourists eager to experience its rich culture. Key attractions, like the International African American Museum, are enhancing the visitor experience, participating in Bank of America’s Museums on Us program. This allows cardholders to access the museum for free on the first full weekend of every month, emphasizing the city’s commitment to cultural engagement.
As Charleston continues to push forward with new developments and ongoing renovations in its hotel sector, the city is poised for a remarkable transformation in its hospitality landscape. With ongoing investments and an optimistic outlook for the future, the historic city is ready to welcome more visitors than ever before.
