John Rutledge House Inn  

It was within walking distance to everywhere my daughter and I wanted to go. When we needed transportation or recommendations the staff was extremely helpful.

The history of the Charleston area was present in this grand old house on Broad Street. An easy walking distance to all of the sites,restaurants, the market, the battery, etc. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The breakfasts in the garden area were excellent. Our room was very comfortable and peaceful.

Our stay was most enjoyable.

Room was quite nice. Patio was lovely. Enjoyed the full breakfasts.

Safety - Steps are steep in front and back. Not recommended for anyone who has climbing challenges or ada issues. The back step is very low and difficult to see at night. Outside lighting is poor. Easy enough to fall and hurt one's self. Staff was pleasant but not overly helpful. No men around to help with luggage. Service - Afternoon tea was ok but nothing extraordinary. No Earl Grey tea; staff said it was "on order". I hear they have groceries in Charleston and even a tea plantation. The inn even sells boxes of tea. How difficult can it be to buy a box of tea? Room upkeep - I didn't mind eco-friendly linen management and agreed to just use one set of towels and sheets for the time there. But they could have at least changed out my glassware for clean drinking glasses. Not much service for $300+/night.

it's in a good location. breakfast was very good. it's a beautiful historic building.

our room was quite dated - especially the bathroom. parking is inadequate. it was over-priced.

The staff were wonderful. We were visiting for our anniversary and they provided us with a complimentary room upgrade and a bottle of champagne. The rooms are large and very comfortable. I loved having a fireplace in the room. The breakfast was great. I liked the option of having it in my room, in the ballroom or in the courtyard outside.

The bathrooms could do with updating - the shower in our room was temperamental. The room we were originally shown downstairs was a little noisy - it was right next to the concierge/check in desk. But the staff were great and moved us upstairs when I asked if we could have a quieter room.
