Located within the French Quarter, this boutique hotel’s proximity to Charleston’s Waterfront Park and City Market makes it ideal for guests desiring a romantic stroll or seeking a variety of nearby shopping and dining options. The property consists of two hotels, 19 Vendue and 26 Vendue, opposite one another on Vendue Range. Each occupies multiple historic warehouse buildings and accordingly each guest room is unique. On-site dining is available at Revival, an upscale restaurant doing its bit to help revive old ingredients, such as Nostrale rice and Jimmy Red grits. Leah Burns of Avocet Hospitality Group, which owns The Vendue, noted that “the heated rooftop bar affords couples a perfect location to enjoy a cocktail while admiring the sunset amongst the church spires and historic Charleston skyline.” THE INN AT I’ON Nestled next to the main entrance of the I’On community, The Inn at I’On, is perfectly situated for couples who want to spend a romantic night or two away from home without leaving Mount Pleasant. The Inn, which offers 11 guest rooms, changed ownership early in 2018 and is now D.I.Y. Want the ultimate experience? 1. Grab a friend or 2! (Or come alone!) 2.
