Imagine staying in one of Charleston's largest and most beautifully restored mansions. Well you don't have to imagine it if you book a stay at the Wentworth Mansion. The staff is incredibly welcoming and happy to show you around and point out the various amenities that come with your stay like pastries and coffee for early risers, complimentary breakfast in the Circa 1886 restaurant, complimentary canapes and wine in the afternoon and sherry, port and brandy available 24/7. Our room, #12, was huge with a gas fireplace and sitting area, king sized bed, large jacuzzi and bathroom with separate toilet and walk-in shower. The bed was firm, but we got wonderful nights' sleep. I enjoyed the coffee maker in the room one afternoon after lunch; a nice amenity to have. Being this is an old home, while the water was plenty hot the water pressure wasn't terrific, but it got the job done. The Mansion is within a 20-minute walk to everything in the old parts of Charleston, which was helpful after all the eating we did. Every member of the staff always greeted us with a smile. It was such a pleasure to come back to after a full day exploring the historic areas of town. The Wentworth Mansion is definitely the place to stay to experience Charleston's old world charm and hospitality. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

This was one for the books! What an incredible mansion, rich with history, hugely comfortable, and staffed with top tier staff. We felt welcomed, cared for, expertly served, and celebrated. They made every step easier from the moment we arrived. We unexpectedly had an additional reason to celebrate (Bar results!) and they immediately helped us do so. What an incredible place and team!

This is the place to stay if you want a really classy experience. The rooms are large and the detail is perfect. The staff were all very nice and always helpful. The location was very convenient and the food at the Mansion was always just right. You will definitely want to check out the view from the rooftop. The skyline is impressive and the sunsets are memorable. We will be back.

The hotel has one of the best views in Charleston and the building is an amazing piece of Charleston history. Much of it has been preserved, and Bryan the concierge was an encyclopedia of the history of the building and the Rodgers family. We could not have had a better stay!

My husband and I did a staycation celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary and his birthday. We had a wonderful time. Our room was luxurious and the staff attentive. Happy hour was a fun time to meet some fellow visitors. We would recommend it for a special occasion. Easy to explore Charleston by walking.

“I want to tell you that my wife and I had a fantastic vacation at the Wentworth Mansion in Charleston, S.C. The mansion was an unbelievable pleasure. The room was exquisite, the view breathtaking. The service could not have been better. The dinner at Circa 1886 was all we could have asked for to celebrate our anniversary. The little extra touches made it an evening we will not forget.”
