Why use FMHIC as an abbreviation?
During our review, you might sometimes see us refer to Francis Marion Hotel in Charleston (34 characters long, including blanks) as FMHIC (5 characters long) for the following 3 reasons:
- We created the acronym by taking the first letter of every word (which was very groundbreaking, we know)
- We’re lazy and FMHIC is simpler and easier for reviewing purposes
- We save 29 characters every time we do this
So, just a heads up that we’ll be using this abbreviation sometimes, so you’re not left scratching your head and wondering what the heck we’re talking about whenever we refer to FMHIC throughout the remainder of this review.
Also, we’ll sometimes use FMHIC1025 which is a combination of the abbreviation with the Travel Help Guru post id, which we sometimes use for THG tracking purposes to further differentiate abbreviations from one another.

And now, let the questions begin…
Is Francis Marion Hotel in a good location in Charleston for you?
Where you want to be located in Charleston is one of the most important questions for you to answer.
Of course, it all depends on why you’ll be in Charleston in the first place, and whether the location of FMHIC will be helpful to you or not.
For example, are you traveling to Charleston for business or pleasure? Visiting friends or family there? Simply want to soak up the sights and attractions?
It’s very simple: decide what you want to actually accomplish (what you want to see or do) in Charleston. And then decide whether Francis Marion Hotel’s location is a benefit for that or not.
Does Francis Marion Hotel have a pool?
An indoor pool or outdoor pool (or even super swanky rooftop pool) might or might not be important to you, depending on how you’re planning to spend your time in Charleston and who you’re traveling with.
For example, if you’re traveling by yourself on business, it might not be important at all, but if you’re traveling to Charleston with friends, family, or children, and you think you’d enjoy relaxing by the pool at FMHIC, it might be an important consideration whether there is an indoor or outdoor swimming pool, whether it’s heated or not and has a pool bar or not, and so on.
If a pool is very important for your stay, THG recommends that you do a specific search for the best deals on Charleston hotels with pools.
Does Francis Marion Hotel have a steam bath, sauna, hot tub, spa, or spa tub?
While you’re exploring the pool options at FMHIC1025, you might as well check whether there’s a steam bath, sauna, hot tub, full service spa, or spa tub that you might be able to enjoy to make your stay even more relaxing.
Does Francis Marion Hotel offer free wi-fi?
This is a huge consideration when considering whether to stay at FMHIC, since people rely on wi fi (wireless internet access) for everything from business work to entertainment.

Does the check-in time and check-out time at Francis Marion Hotel work for you?
Check-in times and check-out times can vary a lot depending on the accomodation, so be sure to verify whether the check in time and check out time at FMHIC works with your schedule, as well as whether you can do a mobile check in to make the process even easier.

Does Francis Marion Hotel have enough beds for you?
If you’re staying at FMHIC with multiple people, this answer is important, because a single twin bed, double bed, queen bed, or king bed is fine if you’re on your own, but if there are others you’d rather not share a bed with, it’s worth checking whether you’ll have a couple double beds or queen sized beds for the sleeping arrangements, or perhaps even a double sofa that you can pull out and make into an extra bed.
Does Francis Marion Hotel have good food options?
Depending on your needs, consider whether FMHIC offers a free breakfast, and if so, whether it’s a simple daily continental breakfast / buffet breakfast, or something fancier like a brunch or some kind of fine dining experience with exquisite cuisine and award winning food.
