Wife and I were just there in Feb for a cruise on the NCL Majesty. Stay at the Charleston Marriott over on the Ashley River Side. Reasonable rates and great food and excellent staff.

As for things to do check out the Magnolia Plantation and take the city tour with Adventure sightseeing. Take a trip out to Mt. Pleasant, and to the U.S.S. Yorktown. Good places to eat are Aggh Shucks(SP?) downtown on the market.

Take a taxi downtown and do your walking and then a taxi back to the hotel. Not expensive at all. Stay away from the Francis Marion hotel. If you are not into Marriott then theres the Embassy Suites at the Citadel.

Charleston is a charming city best taken in over a couple days. The Adventure sightseeing guys are the best and most informative $59.00 +tip PP for an all day affair and they will pick you up at the hotel and take you back.

ETA See you posted in July of 07 DOH....
