And hey– we are huge fans of this. We are flattered there’s finally a term to describe our style here at the Francis Marion Hotel. What can we say… we were ahead of the times in 1924 and we still are!
Being a historic hotel, we have that vintage charm that everyone attempts to recreate. We were born with it and
it’s our time to shine, baby!
