Southern Charm – Travel Charleston, South Carolina
Charleston, South Carolina. The name alone exudes history and southern charm. It finds
its way on the top ten and top twenty five city lists both nationally and internationally. Condé Nast Traveler magazine designated Charleston a “Top 10” travel destination in the United States.

The southern lifestyle and pace is awaiting around every corner.

I was able to unwind in the Signature Lounge and delight in a dish prepared at Trade Restaurant & Bar. Offering an ideal location, inviting atmosphere, and attentive service, The Omni stood out as a quality hotel with luxuries worth sharing with others. Continue reading
