BY: Travis Platt Contributing writerThe right choice of hotel is essential to capturing the spirit of any city, and the Dewberry is our pick for a classic gateway into discovering Charleston’s unique charm. Inside is a “Reimagined Southern” approach; the hotel is finished with enough vintage marble, decorative metal, brass, and wood to link it to the former mid-century modern spirit the building contained during its sixties-era origin. Add in some diamond tile and arching palm branches and you would think you were on a Wes Anderson set.
Remember, even Paul Newman, the Budweiser-drinking race-car-driving actor/icon, was seen many times checking into the finest luxury hotel to escape the crowds
The Dewberry fills that yearning for dapperness and luxury that lives in every kind of man. Its attention to detail howls as loud as a wolf at a full moon. Remember, even Paul Newman, the Budweiser-drinking race-car-driving actor/icon, was seen many times checking into the finest luxury hotel to escape the crowds for a few golden-lit nights of solitude. This is where you escape to Charleston.
We spent most of our time in the Living Room, a lounge bar that serves at any time of day. The stirred classics are the perfect bridge to a night of hopping cobblestones on your way to Cyties staple The Cocktail Club.
Need a full reset? Hit the hotel spa modeled after John Dewberry’s own Charleston carriage house. The lifestyle to be lived with a Dewberry stay will be ingrained in your thoughts long after you check out, and its tasteful allure is as heavy as the humidity over the marsh that surrounds ol’ Chucktown.
