Reviews for Planters Inn
Needs a Facelift
The bar staff, general manager, and the pretty patio and location are all excellent. However, the hotel falls short of the Relais & Chateaux experience I’ve had with this brand. I had high expectations, but I was disappointed the moment I stepped inside. The lobby felt tired, outdated, and like a “has been.” The check-in staff lacked the crisp, expert service and welcoming hospitality I typically expect from a 4 or 5-star hotel. The entire place needs a facelift. At the very least, they should repair the paint on the elevator and walls, redo the peeling wallpaper, and tear up all the carpeting to eliminate the strong damp smell. If you find a good price and aren’t expecting the Ritz, it might be a decent option. Just be prepared for a hotel that has recently changed ownership and lacks the fine details of a top boutique hotel. hotel.

Beautiful historic property
Beautiful historic property. We were upgraded due to an air conditioning issue they had in one of their buildings. The unit was enormous, clean, and comfortable. The staff were friendly and helpful. Enjoyed our stay and recommend this property.

Just okay.
The hotel staff and the hotel rooms are mediocre. Service at times was unacceptable. Room did not receive service for 2 out of our 4 days. Kind of not acceptable at a hotel in this price range!

Disappointed
Sadly not a great experience overall. Place felt damp and musty smelling. We were so looking forward to our stay here but it didn’t measure up to how much we paid or the ratings we saw online.

Looking forward to our return!
My daughter and I had a wonderful time staying at Planters Inn. Everyone was friendly and helpful and our room was very comfortable. It is located within walking distance from everything we wanted to do. The day we arrived the Concierge was excellent and gave us a lot of information about dining, arts and shopping options. She was able to arrange for us to schedule massages and we were pleased with her dining recommendations too. Valet parking is a plus and when we needed something we left in the car, they retrieved it for us and delivered it to our room.

Our visit to the Planters Inn last week was superb, as always. Thanks, Steve Boyd, for taking such good care of us when we arrived so early in the morning. Thanks, too, to everyone at the inn for making us feel at home. We're already looking forward to our next visit!
