A boutique escape-meets-experience hotel in the heart of Charleston

Discover The Ryder Hotel, a boutique escape-meets-experience hotel in the heart of Charleston. The Ryder Hotel is a place to embrace your fun-loving, free-spirited side. A place where you can nurture genuine connections. A place where neighbors and explorers gather to celebrate what brings us all together. For us, fun is by design—and our spaces really show it. Our aesthetic is inspired by Charleston’s coastal beauty and features a style that’s sophisticated, but still relaxed. Earthy reds, organic hues, and hand-crafted furniture create a modern, laid-back bohemian experience that looks awesome from every angle.

Located in the heart of downtown Charleston, The Ryder’s central location makes this hotel the perfect home base for the Lowcountry explorer. Just steps from the shops on King Street and the French District, you are sure to keep busy during your stay. The Ryder also provides complimentary bikes, morning coffee, workout classes and a welcome cocktail upon check-in.

This 91-room boutique hotel embodies a laid-back coastal spirit and incorporates sustainability as a core pillar in everything we do. The Ryder’s famous pool will be sure to put you in a good time state of mind. Home to Little Palm, an award-winning breezy poolside café.  Enjoy poolside service from Little Palm while you lounge on comfy Sun Loungers with a drink in hand and soak in some chill vibes.

Coming this Autumn our newly imagined, highly anticipated 2,100 square foot outdoor venue, The Backyard. Centered around a fireplace and located in the heart of The Ryder Hotel, The Backyard offers open air sky views day or night. Open daily for casual dining, cocktails and conversation. The Backyard is also reservable for private events and gatherings.
