The Ryder

Rooms are bright, breezy, and designed with a mid-century nod—think rattan accents, whimsical art, and a palette of earthy pinks and aqua greens. Reusable glass carafes, Italian-embroidered robes, and yoga mats add thoughtful touches, while select accommodations offer extra space with cozy lounge furniture for resting between jaunts around town.

Little Palm, the hotel’s poolside restaurant and cocktail bar, brings a splash of island ease to the Lowcountry. From coastal-inspired bites like Caribbean salad and grilled octopus to playful sips like frozen piña coladas and spritzes, it’s the perfect spot to linger under the palms or toast to the day’s discoveries.

The Coffee Counter is the perfect morning gathering spot to enjoy breakfast, specialty coffee or cappuccino, then lounge by the palm-lined pool with a book or cocktail in hand. Adjacent to the pool, Little Palm provides a breezy, coastal inspired setting for relaxation.

Cruise the city with complimentary bike rentals, or picnic like a local with beach blankets and cooler rentals. For low-key fun, head outdoors for bocce, paddle ball, or spike ball on the hotel grounds. You’re right in the heart of historic attractions like Charleston City Market. Go shopping on nearby King Street or take a scenic carriage ride through the Historic District.
