Raines and RREAF Holdings have opened the DoubleTree by Hilton Charleston Riverview in Charleston, SC. This latest location marks Raines’ third DoubleTree property to join the portfolio this year, joining the Summerville and Greenville locations that opened in July in South Carolina.
The Charleston hotel is a conversion property with 126 keys. It features standard DoubleTree amenities, as well as a fitness center, outdoor pool, firepits and pet-friendly rooms. The on-site F&B options have been elevated and include a restaurant, lobby bar and lobby market.
The property is located two miles from Downtown Historic Charleston. Magnolia Plantation and Gardens and Charleston International Airport are both about 11 miles away, with Folly Beach and Isle of Palms Beach also nearby.
“We are thrilled to welcome yet another fantastic DoubleTree by Hilton property to our management portfolio,” said Grey Raines, managing partner, Raines. “Every hotel conversion is an opportunity to elevate. We’re also very excited to continue leveraging Hilton’s powerful distribution platform to deliver the exceptional, guest-focused experiences that our hospitality partners and travelers expect. We greatly enjoy the opportunity to work with such a trusted and globally recognized brand.”
Raines oversaw the hotel’s conversion.
“The conversion of this property to the DoubleTree by Hilton Charleston Riverview represents a strategic repositioning that enhances both the guest experience and the long-term value of the asset,” said Kip Sowden, CEO, RREAF Holdings, owner of the property. “We are excited to partner with Raines and Hilton to bring this iconic brand to one of the most sought-after vacation destinations. This transition allows us to leverage Hilton’s global platform while elevating amenities and services that meet the expectations of today’s travelers.”
