Top Kanawha State Forest Hotel Reviews

Hampton Inn Charleston-Southridge

10/10 Excellent

"Hampton Inn's always come through. Clean, comfortable, nice front desk staff."

Days Inn by Wyndham Charleston WV

8/10 Good

"Had stayed here 7 years ago and had remembered it being really clean and nice for the price. Would stay again!"

Microtel Inn & Suites by Wyndham Charleston WV

8/10 Good

"Clean and very convenient to get to many locations. Breakfast was mid. Not many options. Hotel staff was friendly and helpful."

Comfort Inn Charleston South

8/10 Good

"Good place to stop for the night"

Holiday Inn Express Charleston-Kanawha City by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"We have stayed here twice in the last couple of years while traveling south. The staff have been great, and the hotel is very clean and comfortable. The air conditioning was super cold, just the way we like it at night!"

Charleston Marriott Town Center

10/10 Excellent

"All was good but the bar waitresses seemed a little rattles"

Embassy Suites Charleston

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms were very nice, and very clean! The staff were all so kind, a wonderful complimentary breakfast, and the rooms and beds were very cozy and comfortable! The only complaint we had was the elevators. 2/3 elevators were down, which things happen and that’s okay! But it turns out one elevator has been down for over a year, and the other had been down for 7 months. This is an incredibly busy hotel and it would turn to a 15-20 minute wait every time we had to change floors. This is not a reflection on staff but more on the owners who are not taking care of the property. It was very sad watching cleaning staff struggle to get everything done due to the elevators. They definitely need raises, they are working so incredibly hard."

Suburban Studios Charleston - Civic Center

10/10 Excellent

"Wow, this is an older hotel. The convenience of the location is wonderful. The staff is top-of-the-line breakfast outstanding. It would be nice if the pool could ever reopen they could increase the room value by 50%."

Hampton Inn Charleston-Downtown

8/10 Good

"Very convenient to highway for an overnight stay. Walkable to the downtown area."
