Charleston’s storied waterfront is entering a transformative new chapter, and it starts with The Cooper.
Named for the river forever in its gaze, The Cooper is the only luxury waterfront hotel on the Charleston peninsula. A modern expression of authentic Charleston, this six-story, 191-room hotel connects guests, residents, and visitors to the city’s vibrant downtown and dynamic harbor. Airy, light-filled guest rooms and suites, a first-of-its-kind spa, a spectacular rooftop infinity pool, four creative dining concepts, and a private marina create an unparalleled waterfront destination centered around nature and community.
Look closely, and you’ll see hints of sweetgrass basketry throughout The Cooper—a tribute to beloved local traditions.
The Cooper’s unique design was inspired by its surroundings, from the natural beauty of the Lowcountry’s winding rivers to the effortless elegance of Charleston’s historic homes. In a city known for warm welcomes, it was vital for every indoor and outdoor space to convey timeless Southern hospitality. An industry-leading design team brought this vision to life, with architecture by McMillan Pazdan Smith, landscape architecture by Rees Roberts + Partners and DesignWorks, and interiors by Champalimaud Design.
A gathering place where charming streets meet flowing waters, locals meet newcomers, and heritage meets modern comfort.
To stay at The Cooper is to experience Charleston like never before. Through a dedicated team of personal concierges, guests can unlock insider access to other iconic destinations within the Beemok Hospitality Collection, including The Charleston Place hotel, Credit One Stadium, the historic Riviera Theater, the Italian fine dining restaurant Sorelle, and the serene park space of American Gardens. This unprecedented urban resort is a celebration of Charleston’s rich culture and limitless future—grounded in community and inspired to aim ever higher.
