I rented this room for my daughter, son in law and grandkids. The room was very clean and the pool was great. However, the ceiling leaked and they had to use their bath towels to soak up the water. When she asked the housekeeper for more towels, her supervisor wasn’t going to give them anymore. My daughter told her they used theirs to soak up the water and then she said , “ oh! We have floor tiles.”. Maybe fix the leak!?!

It's a great location and price is reasonable. The property is currently being renovated under new ownership after years of neglect apparently. It's quiet (on a Thursday night) and comfortable with a little harbor within walking distance with shops, restaurants, etc. I'd do it again.

We were there for one night. The room was very clean. Although the hotel uses contactless check in, our check in and code came about an hour early. They also provide information about the area restaurants and things to do. Our schedule did not afford us pool time, but pool looked very inviting.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. My room had nice new floors and new furniture. The bed was very comfortable. The Roku TV worked well. The bathroom and sink area were clean and very nice. I was pleased that the shower had plenty of hot water. Overall, I enjoyed my stay at the Hotel Carolina! I will stay there again the next time I visit Hilton head.

The staff was amazing it is no contact so we only saw one lady who was incredibly helpful! The bathroom door didn’t shut or lock in our room and the bathtub was clogged so the water wouldn’t drain very fast. They had towels and 2 little soap bars in the room but that’s it. Honestly though would stay here again the room isn’t that spacious but wasn’t terrible either!

I had a great stay at Hotel Carolina. The room was recently renovated, very clean, and extremely comfortable. You can tell a lot of care has gone into updating the property. The mid-island location is excellent—very convenient for getting around Hilton Head and close to everything you need. I did have to ask the front desk for a few extra towels, and they were incredibly helpful and quick to assist. Overall, the service was great. The contactless check-in and check-out process was also super easy and convenient, which made the whole stay very smooth. Overall, the room was nice, the location was great, and it felt like an excellent value for the price. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again. A++ 👍

We were pleased with our stay. I was concerned about the contactless, no hotel staff idea. The communications were a bit shaky, which caused a little concern. The property was clean and the hotel room was just fine. The bed was obviously new. Unfortunately, it was quite firm, which I did not like, but that's a personal preference. I had received an email in which I was asked for my verification information. I completed it. The night before, I received a text stating that if I didn't complete the information (which I had completed), I wouldn't get my code. I replied to the text and a while later received a note that it was all set. I was to get my code at 4. I replied to the previous text asking if there was anything missing, and why I hadn't received the code. I received the code at 4:20. So ... it caused a little anx, but was ok. I didn't realize until the next morning that there was a nice lobby (and a lady who came and went, not sure what here role was). They had a coffee pot and baskets of other amenities that you might need more of (shampoo, kleenex, etc). I was able to sit in the lobby, and then out by the pool, enjoying my coffee before my husband work up. The hotel was very convenient. We had reservations at Nectar Farm Kitchen (which was AMAZING!) and the Comedy Cabaret (which was fun), both of which were within a mile of this property. All in all, it was a good stay. I probably would not return because of the firm beds.

The cashier lady was very kind and helpful. The TV wasn't working, and she went to the room and fixed it. The room was very clean. The smoke detector was detached from the wall. The pool floor looked dirty or stained.

Nice hotel near Shelter Cove and Palmetto Dunes. Clean and comfortable. Check in is contact less and there was a awkward tech issue, but everything else made up for it. Clean pool area. Walking distance to Hilton Head Diner, Shelter Cove and a big Mini golf area if you have kids or like to mini golf. Good price for the location.

Our stay at Carolina Hotel Hilton was very nice. The room was clean, spacious and quiet. Parking was great. We were able to use a keyless entry for the very first time. After learning what to do it was nice. We were close to a-lot of conveniences. Thanks for a great two night stay!

The rooms have been redone since last we were here and they look great. We loved not having to carry a key card around, the new coded locks were a plus. We really enjoyed our quick pit stop on our way to Miami and look forward to coming back on our way back home next week.

Choosing this for price mainly, we thought it was a decent spot. Close to everything and set back a bit from the highway. Lobby not staffed overnight but innkeeper accessible. Undergoing renovation with courteous workers and minimal noise. No breakfast. Comfortable, clean room. No frills but a good choice.
