Only a picky person would take issue with this Inn

10.0

We took a room in the main house for 3 nights. It was an amazing stay with amazing staff. The front desk staff were particularly helpful - upon arrival I erroneously parked in the church car park next door - an easy mistake but no harm. I was directed to the Inns’ car park to the rear. A very easy self-park - particularly to unload the luggage😃 Our king-bed room in the main house (lower floor) was pretty large - complete with couches and dining table with chairs - it would be referred to as a suite in a modern hotel. It was well serviced - kept clean - fresh towels etc. Coffee making facilities are external to the room. Breakfast was cooked to order - served in the garden - and very wholesome. The afternoon tea and snacks; plus the evening port/sherry/brandy made slipping in/out very easy whilst walking between Charleston attractions. Overall it is not “at the cheap end of hotels - but very good value” - easy to return and recommend.

History and hospitality abound !

10.0

My husband and I had a truly amazing stay at this lovingly restored historic home . Our suite was well-appointed and very comfortable. The most memorable part of our visit was the warmth, hospitality and efficiency of the staff who truly made us feel at home . We really enjoyed the afternoon tea in the ballroom and a glass of brandy at night on the balcony . Breakfast was made to order and delicious. They assisted with every detail of our trip including dinner reservations, recommendations for transportation and sight seeing . We highly recommend the Discover Charleston package for first time visitors such as ourselves. Honestly, we did not want to leave !!

What an excellent experience!

10.0

Staying at the John Rutledge House Inn was perfect. We were able to walk to all the attractions and restaurants within the historic district. But what really made staying at the inn perfect was the staff. They were so friendly and accommodating; and then there were the breakfasts. The food was outstanding and the servers were wonderful. The building is well maintained and very clean.

We are ready to go back and we’ve only been home a few weeks.

10.0

My husband & I stayed at the John Rutledge House Inn the first full week of April for our 25th wedding anniversary trip. We can not even begin to describe how much we enjoyed our stay here. The place is gorgeous! The room we stayed in (Room 4) is GRAND! Afternoon tea, spectacular, breakfast (we had it in our room every morning) was WONDERFUL. Turn down service was lovely. The location is super convenient to many of the things one would want to do/see. We’ve only been home a few weeks and we want to go back already. We HIGHLY RECOMMEND this establishment.
