How can I get cheap hotels in Charleston?

Best tips to find a cheap hotel in Charleston

If you're looking to travel to Charleston on a budget, you'll be happy to know that you can find hotels for as low as $68. Of course, that price is affected by amenities, star rating, and even the time of year you visit. At most, hotel prices can be as high as $167. Staying a short amount of time in Charleston is an effective way to reduce hotel costs.
When you cut your vacation down to just a few days, you don't have to worry as much about hotel prices since you don't have that many nights to stay. For budget hotels in Charleston, 3 to 4 days should be all the nights you need. That's generally enough to enjoy the city's top attractions, though there's certainly enough to do to warrant a week-long trip.
When booking cheap hotel rooms in Charleston, it's typically best to book about 3 weeks in advance. Book further in advance than that and you could be paying too much for your room, as hotels will often overestimate future demand. However, if you wait too long, you might find that the hotel has been completely booked.
When you utilize search filters on Expedia, you'll be able to narrow down your results in a flash. These search filters cover a wide variety of factors you may be interested in when it comes to finding a cheap hotel in Charleston, including amenities such as Free Breakfast, 2-star rating, or proximity to local attractions. You can even set filters for price limits to ensure that all the displayed results are within your budget.

Top Charleston Hotel Reviews

Global INN

8/10 Good

"Staff are very helpful and they are very helpful"

Quality Inn & Suites at Coos Bay

10/10 Excellent

"I made a mistake in a non-refundable booking, but the hotel staff helped me fix it without losing my money. So I'm very impressed with the staff!! Hotel is nice and clean; breakfast was plentiful and tasty. We stayed one night during a road trip but it's a nice place for multiple days too."

Bay Bridge Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful place to stop amongst your travels and lay your sleepy heads! The staff running the place are FANTASTIC, very kind and helpful. The place is clean and has all the essentials needed. The only recommendation I do have for them is to make a key drop off box available for those who would like to check out early, before open office hours at 8. That way early risers can set out on their next adventure as soon as they'd like :) Thank you for the great stay!"

Frequently asked questions

How much does a budget hotel in Charleston cost?

Budget hotel prices in Charleston vary, but you can find a great deal from $68 on Expedia. To find the cheapest budget hotels, be flexible with your dates—off-peak and mid-week stays are typically cheaper. Stretch your budget further by looking for hotels with free breakfast, free parking or free airport shuttles. Sort your search results by "Price: low to high" to see our lowest rates.

Which area of Charleston is best to stay in for cheap hotels?

For travellers seeking cheap hotels in Charleston, Oregon, focusing on areas slightly outside the immediate harborfront or exploring nearby towns offers the best value. While Charleston itself is a small fishing village, its limited accommodation options can sometimes be pricier due to demand, especially during peak season.

Solo travellers might find more affordable guesthouses or independent motels along Cape Arago Highway, leading into Charleston. These options often provide a quieter stay with easy access to the village's attractions, like Shore Acres State Park and the Oregon Coast Aquarium, just a short drive away.

Families looking for more budget-friendly lodging might consider staying in the larger neighbouring city of Coos Bay, just a 15-20 minute drive from Charleston. Coos Bay offers a wider selection of motels and hotels, many with amenities like swimming pools, at a lower price point. The city also provides a variety of dining options and larger grocery stores, making it convenient for families to stock up on supplies.

When is the most affordable time to visit Charleston?

The most affordable time to visit Charleston, Oregon, is typically during the shoulder seasons of spring (late April to early June) and fall (mid-September to October). These periods offer a pleasant climate with fewer crowds and generally lower prices for accommodations and activities compared to the peak summer months.

For solo travellers, visiting during these times means better chances of securing budget-friendly lodging, from cozy guesthouses to motels, and potentially finding deals on local excursions. The weather is often mild, great for exploring the natural beauty of the Oregon Coast without the summer rush.

During the spring, the landscape bursts with new growth, and migrating whales can sometimes be spotted from viewpoints like Cape Arago State Park. Fall brings crisp air and often spectacular sunsets, ideal for enjoying the beaches and hiking trails around Charleston.

Is it cheaper to book a Charleston hotel and flight package?
