Looking for the ultimate end of summer or early autumn weekend getaway? 

Why not hit up America's most charming city?

Charleston just got a whole lot chicer (if that's even possible) with the opening of downtown's newest boutique hotel, The Ryder

Located in the revitalized Historic District, and designed by locally based studio Cortney Bishop Design, the sure-to-be-hot-spot is an Instagram dream, bursting with fun retro Southern vibes. 

I mean, the color palette alone? 

Pastel perfection!

When you're not exploring the city by foot, or with the complimentary cherry red cruisers the hotel provides(!!), you can kick back and relax at Little Palm, an indoor-outdoor restaurant perfectly perched by the hotel's cheeky pool. 

Swim, sip, snack and repeat!
