    Just WOW. Our 2 night stay here was everything I could have hoped it would be and more... I mean who wouldn't want to stay in a magical historic mansion? I have had Wentworth Mansion on my hotel bucket list for a number of years and could not be happier with our experience. We stayed in room 1, which is a garden room with a cute little outdoor patio. The room was very spacious and felt like we had stepped back in time...but with electricity! We took advantage of the big whirlpool tub both evenings which was a treat. The bed was incredibly comfortable, with lovely linens and great pillows. The room had every amenity we needed, including ice which they filled up each after/evening. Little chocolate/sweets each night in our room, the full complimentary breakfast, afternoon lemonade and incredibly friendly/tending staff made our time memorable! This part of our trip, staying here was worth the extra splurge!

    We absolutely loved our stay here!! From the beautiful architecture, above and beyond touches, accommodating staff it was such a delight being a guest here. Bryan the concierge was so helpful in recommendations and any questions we had! He was great! We came for a special anniversary celebration and thoroughly enjoyed the hospitality.

    We had the most amazing time in Charleston, and a huge part of it was our stay at Wentworth Mansion. Beautifully clean and well-attended, with some of the best and most friendly service I've ever experienced at a five star hotel. The house itself is charming, it felt like enjoying a piece of history. We had a wonderful time and will be sure to come back. Special thanks to Bryan who was so accommodating and kind!

    Stunning hotel, rich in history and architecture. I'm so glad we stayed here while we were in Charleston. The staff at the Mansion went above and beyond, our every desire was fulfilled. The bed was super comfortable, the bathroom was as big as some NYC apartments and the little balcony was adorable! We dined at the on-site restaurant, Circa 1886, and it was AMAZING!!! The "grilled cheese" appetizer was the most original and decadent dish I've had in quite some time. I highly recommend it. My husband and I visit Charleston on a family trip every summer and we like to try a different B&B every year, but I think we may have to just keep coming back to the Wentworth because it was just too good.

    My husband and I stayed here for 3 days and 2 nights. It was everything you would expect. We will only stay here when we visit Charleston. They made us feel so welcome. My husband forgot to pack the toothpaste. So we called down to see if they sold it. The bellman went to the local store to buy it for us. We were so impressed. They cleaned the rooms daily. We were greeted anytime we enter or left. Every evening they treated us to Port and chocolate truffles (2). They serve hors d'oeuvres and wine from 6-7 but we never made it. The bed was comfortable. The room was immaculate and wonderfully quiet all the time. That was wonderful. The peace and quiet was so relaxing. The room had a large soaking tub and comfortably sized shower. The location is perfect for site seeing. We walked all over Charleston. We went threw the famous Charleston Market. Then the nicer downtown boutiques. They have a street that has several high end shops. We walked about 10 miles in 2 days. It was so fun. We were able to see and do so much because of the prime location of this hotel. The hotel had a lovely back garden. It had several benches for people. They also had an air conditioned sunroom overlooking the gardens. We really enjoyed our stay. Brian, our concierge, really made the Wentworth Mansion amazing. He went above and beyond our expectations. Thank you.

    All COVID rules are being followed here, we are visiting Charleston and wanted to stay at a super nice historic home , the Wentworth Mansion is beautiful, the folks working here go above and beyond , the afternoon wine and cheese was a nice touch, we stayed in room2 "the Mansion room"the nice thing about this room is an additional entrance in the back, the room has a very comfortable king bed, gas fireplace, separated sitting area with couch and TV , the bathroom has a jetted garden tub with separate shower, we really enjoyed our stay here and when we wanted to see the sights, we were hooked up with Kathryn Abrams 1-503-267-2986 she is a private tour guide that was very knowledgeable and had a great energy , great tour of the city, this will be a trip we will long remember, we highly recommend

    My first time inside the Mansion itself and this was to meet a client from out of town. Once before, I have been in the restaurant (also expensive). Upon walking into this place, the wood trim is what struck me first, then the ornate tile floors, the cool temperature (perhaps as the first floor and lobby are not well lit by natural light) and the friendly and efficient desk clerk. I was directed into the parlor and thus sat myself in a luxuriously soft chair. There was the fireplace looking at me, and thus I just "had to" take a photo and submit that photo. Just walking in, and sitting in the parlor for an hour was great, and probably (I cannot tell) the rooms are of the nature, age and grandeur of the Grove Park Inn.

    Calling this a hotel does this magnificent property a huge disservice. It's a truly one-of-a-kind experience. It is unbelievably beautiful. The staff is phenomenal - anything you want they make sure you have. They are friendly and always willing to give suggestions on what to do and see. My only complaint is that we loved being in our room so much it was hard to leave it and go out and experience Charleston. I can't wait for my next stay at this magical place.

    This was an easy 5 stars! Wow!! From the moment we made our reservations, the Wentworth staff were always there for us making sure we had what we needed. All staff members provided recommendations, made reservations, and delivered a great stay. The hotel itself is a great piece of history which provides for the opportunity to experience something unique. If you like boutique lodging, you cannot go wrong here. The room #12 was huge!! Much larger than we had expected. The furniture and furnishing were classic but comfortable. The mood in the room was set to the history of the building. The bathroom provided tons of space and privacy. The classic wood floors creaked and squeaked as you walked on them from time to time which added to the experience. The room has been modernized with central and heat which was great! The location of the hotel is perfect. East walk to the waterfront and shopping on King Street. As a bonus, the hotel has one of the best restaurants in the City (which is worth going too!). If you are heading to Charleston, the Wentworth is a must!! Cheers Always!!

    You will not be disappointed if you stay at Wentworth Mansion. The hotel is beautiful and luxurious and the staff treat you as if you are the Lord of the Manor catering to your every need. They spoiled us so much I don't think another hotel will ever compare. 5 stars across the board. Bravo Wentworth Mansion- I'll definitely be back!

    Wentworth Mansion on Wentworth Street in Charleston is a beautiful and magnificent place to stay. This is a one of a kind experience that is very Charleston and provides something that is memorable and something that no other hotel can provide. Everything is well taken care of and maintained. There is also a very relaxing and laid back atmosphere that allows you to get away while still being in the middle of Charleston. The staff is great and attentive and knows how to take care of their guests. I have been impressed every time I have been here and know that a stay here will be consistently excellent.

    My lovely bride.

    It's late on a stormy Friday evening at this grand old mansion/hotel a few blocks off King Street on the peninsula in Charleston. It's kind of a spooky place that reminds me of visiting my rich old aunt's house back in the fifties. Squeaky parkay floors, large sleigh bed, adjoining library/sunroom (I spent an afternoon on the couch reading a book I pulled from the shelf, what a treat) dark hardwood trim and tiled bathroom larger than most motel rooms, this is a grand Charleston experience. My bride and I came here on a whim and so far have had a fun time. As others have noted, this place has a lot of added value. Convenient, free parking, free breakfast, free cokes and water in the fridge, free wine and snacks in the evenings, all help the top end rates seem not so harsh. The staff was welcoming and efficient. The concierge and bellman reminded me of Keven Spacey and John Cousack in the 1997 movie "Midnight In The Garden Of Good And Evil": Deliciously mysterious and only slightly menacing! A lot of classic Southern charm that only Charleston can offer. If you want a five star experience (and want to try something other than the corporate chains) it features luxurious furnishings in quiet, private suites that make great retreats after a day of shopping. An on site spa and five star restaurant only make it better.

    This truly is a mansion. As soon as you walk through the well curated and cared for gardens, through the grand and well kept historical doors, you are welcomed. The staff is always helpful and courteous. The rooms are large and airy. They went out of their way to provide me with a balcony, which I fully enjoyed in the evenings. The soaker tubs are large and both of my rooms, the bedroom and the bathroom, had fireplaces. They were cozy and enchanting on cool nights. Housekeeping is attentive, leaving weather forecasts for your home locale and for Charleston, as well as chocolates made on the property. They aren't stingy with toiletries or towels, and that's appreciated. Breakfast from their restaurant, Circa 1886, is included, and is not your ordinary complimentary breakfast. We had the frittata, avocado toast, homemade yogurt and granola, and the pancakes, all good. They have evening hor d'oeuvres made by Circa 1886 as well, and complimentary wine, sherry, and other spirits out at all times. They also include a fridge stocked with drinks daily--sodas, sparkling water, regular water. Like the last independent historic inn I stayed in, the bed was much firmer than I prefer, but that's the only thing that wasn't perfect. This place is luxurious and beautiful. I wish we had more time to spend here to explore its original structures, antiques, stained glass, and hidden corners. The cupola offered gorgeous 360 degree views. Happy we had this experience.

Although it wasn't cabana season or warm enough to get into the pool, the cabana room was really nice and clean. I thought the room was just so cute and loved how the entire hotel was decorated. I was still able to enjoy a couple hours sitting out in the sun by the pool during my stay. They offered an hour of complimentary champagne in the late afternoon which was a nice touch. The hotel has a nice cafe and restaurant attached so you don't have to go far to find some food and coffee. I definitely recommend this hotel and enjoyed our brief time there.

The Mills House is one of the truly classic Charleston hotels. It has gone through a lot of owners in its history. It has been an independent property, a Hyatt, a Wyndham and has had many other flags. Hilton has renovated it a bit but kept most of its eccentricities. The location on Meeting Street not far from King can't be beat. The staff is friendly and helpful. The food and drink are the main restaurant and bar, the Iron Rose, are good. The negatives include the plumbing. On two of the three days we were there over Christmas, the water in the shower was just lukewarm, and the water pressure came and went. The other main negative is the cost of parking, $60 a night. That's a Manhattan price, not what you'd expect in a mid-size Southern city. Still, we like the atmosphere and the history, so we'll stick with five stars.

There were a lots of bars, restaurants and shops within walking distance. They boast about their butler service, which is pretty unique in the United States (akin to the resorts in Mexico and the Caribbean). We only stayed one night and did not make the most out of it. Our butler was very pleasant and offered detailed recommendations regarding restaurants in the area. The staff is welcoming and friendly. We arrived early and had to wait a few hours until our room was ready. That was a slight nuisance as it was a cold and rainy October weekend in Charleston. Luckily they had plenty of umbrellas for us to use. The welcome cocktails were a nice touch when we were finally able to check-in. Other nice touches include the complimentary drinks, candies and snacks that were already waiting in the room. The turndown service also included chocolate and a small sweet alcoholic drink / shot. Lastly, the included room service breakfast in the morning elevates the stay. A lot of good things. However, I thought the rooms themselves were just okay and a bit dated. Our friends stayed at a boutique hotel with vaulted ceilings and its own kitchenette for less money. Another disappointment was that we booked a room with a small outdoor courtyard, but were given a regular room. Given the weather, we probably wouldn't have used the outdoor space at all, but it would be good to get what you paid for. Overall very good service and location. They have a nice bar by the lobby that we did not make use of. The rooms themselves are just okay and on the small size. I would probably stay somewhere else next time I visit Charleston, even though I have nothing bad to say about The Spectator. Maybe my expectations were too high with a 4.8 / 5 average Yelp score. I just think there's better value elsewhere.

    You're only as strong as your weakest link…read more I've stayed in many hotels for both work and personal travel. The nice amenities, decent gym and friendly staff are what creates the environment for a pleasant experience. Two of these were met and the friendly staff, was mostly there. . .but one sour apple truly changed the course of our stay. Even my wife, who worked once upon a time in hospitality at Kiawah Resort, was started by the interactions from The Loutrel Hotel staff member. Long story short. The daily complimentary breakfast was served. I accidentally went to place the granola lid on the yogurt, my wife told me that was the wrong lid and I went to correct. From across the room the breakfast attendant yelled, "sir that doesn't go there." Startled, I immediately removed it and placed it accordingly. I laughed it off. Moments later I went to sit my breakfast down where my drink was located. Same attendant, "you're not even sitting at the right table with your wife." Again, my error, but don't call me out twice in one morning. It's a small lobby, so many staff members overheard the interaction. Nothing was done by other management. The next morning, I walked down to look at breakfast. I saw the same attendant and said, good morning. She looked at me but wasn't pleasant in her response. Unlike the rest of her colleagues at the restaurant who are polite and kind, the same customer service I expect and provide to my customers. Breakfast offered salmon with some type of eggs or shellfish. I can't eat shellfish, allergic. So, I went to grab a biscuit at a local coffee shop and a coffee. We came back to the hotel and sat our food down. The same rude attendant came over, nudged my wife in her back and said, "you can't have this here, cross contamination." So, I left. Allowed my wife to eat her yogurt in the area. Funny enough, my wife asked where the utensils were, because every table had them. Same attendant rudely, pointed to another table for her to get them. I should have just sat down and ate my food as I didn't see any signs for "no outside food." Either way, stay somewhere else. It's unfortunate that a hotel like this allows such rudeness from a staff member. I did report this to the manager, and online but was met with more passivity. Comped two nights of valet. Honestly, it wasn't enough. I would never stay here again and it ended the trip on such a sour note.

It is a great location on King Street but close to the freeway. It was very easy to get to and leave to get to work. I thought the staff were lovely and very responsive. The little bar was a great escape from the hustle and bustle of the weekend. It was great staying here.
