As America approaches its 250th anniversary, Charleston - one of the country’s most historic cities - offers the perfect setting to celebrate. The Ryder Hotel is leaning into the once-in-a-lifetime moment with A Summer of Time: Toasting 250 Years of American History, a limited-time summer package that intertwines Charleston history with Ryder’s playful spirit.
Rooted in the local community, the package was created in partnership with two Charleston small businesses - Bulldog Tours and Elby Pajamas - and delivers an Americana nostalgia moment through throwback-inspired cocktails and a themed “time capsule” turndown surprise that changes throughout the stay.
The Package Includes:
- Two tickets to Bulldog Tour’s Drunk History Bar Crawl ($500 value)
- Two $50 share cocktails (Apple Pie Sangria & Spiked Root Beer Float) at Little Palm
- Time Capsule turndown service
- Patriotic pajamas by Elby
With its prime downtown location and one of Charleston’s only hotel pools, The Ryder is an ideal home base for travelers looking to celebrate America’s 250th anniversary in one of its most historic cities -complete with local storytelling, nostalgic cocktails, and poolside downtime.
