We love staying in John Rutledge House Inn in Charleston SC. It was very clean, thanks to Tonya, comfortable and just as wonderful as described. The location is amazing, few minute walk to shops, parks and the city which made it great for us getting around. Elizabeth is a lovely host, very informative with checking in. We got useful tips about what to see and where to go. Would recommend this to anyone and thank you for being great hosts.

The Rutledge Inn was the most amazing place we have ever stayed in. Not only is every inch of the house beautiful but the staff is amazing. The concierges and Elliot were so great. The breakfast was above all expectations. They gifted us a bottle of wine for our honeymoon, we had such an amazing time here. The ballroom is spectacular, and the view from the balcony is beautiful. We could not be happier with our stay here. They made the first part of our honeymoon tour nothing short of amazing!

At first the narrow and steepish stairs but realized to change that would alter the old-state-of-affairs/original condition of the structures.

While the Rutledge House is historic and the history of the Rutledge family is a big part of Charleston; it is not necessary to stay at the Inn. The property is quite worn. Housekeeping bags of laundry were in full view in another wise pleasant courtyard. The breakfast was average. If you decide to take breakfast on the outdoor patio be prepared for an extremely loud renovation project next door.For the money you can do better.

You can hear the people above and next to you. They had a dog so it was a lot of noise. We can hear their conversation. Don't expect a quiet stay. They also did not tell us they charge for parking until we were checking out. It was 75 dollars for one night so you may want to park elsewhere.
The bedroom was lovely and the breakfast was delicious! They had an afternoon tea that was very nice and cute!
