“When you walk out of The Francis Marion Hotel early in the morning and turn toward the sea, all of Charleston looks like it could be a movie set for a documentary on gracious living.”
- Alex Watson, Birmingham, December 2006

The Francis Marion Hotel, located in the heart of historic Charleston, SC, was the largest and grandest in the Carolinas when it opened in 1924. Named for General Francis Marion, the "Swamp Fox" of the American Revolution, the Francis Marion Hotel in Charleston re-opened in 1996 after a $12 million National Trust award-winning restoration, and is once again Charleston's Grand Hotel.
