    Loved staying here! The property, inside and out, was beautiful. The staff were wonderful and helpful. The bed was very comfortable. The view of the park and the river across the street was lovely. All the positives make up for the location being a bit further from restaurants and bars, although within walking distance depending on your abilities. We’d stay here again!

    Exceptionally beautiful historic property. Our carriage house room was lovely. Garden was so pretty. Julie and Ryan were very gracious and helpful. Delicious breakfast and social hour. Conveniently located to the waterfront and the French Quarter.

  • Engine customer May 2026

    The property is stunning. The room was comfortable, though it could have used more storage space. The plumbing is up-to-date, which is always a concern when booking a vintage property. The various on-duty managers were always friendly, charming and helpful. And it is delightful staying in this neighborhood! I would vigorously recommend this hotel.

    We stayed 3 nights at 20 S. Battery and had a wonderful experience. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Our room was clean and parking was always available.

    Love staying with you again! Can't wait until our next trip. Great staff and love the home.

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Everything was exceptional. Southern Charm and hospitality at its finest.

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Breakfasts were fine, but somewhat limited in options. Parking was extremely convenient, as we were able to park right outside the property every day we were there. Location was great. We were able to walk to great dining experiences and the park across the street was a great place to sit and chat. The top floor reading area was also a great place to relax.

  • Engine customer Apr 2026

    The location was perfect and the walks to get to all the activities/restaurants were beautiful. The hotel does not have many amenities but that didn't matter to us. The historic mansion was an incredible add to our stay in Charleston. The breakfast was a perfect start to the day. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.

  • Engine customer Apr 2026

    Loved the charm, location and amenities of this place. Across from Battery Park in a large neighborhood of stunning historic homes and maybe a half mile from the commercial district. Staff was awesome.

  • Engine customer Mar 2026

    Very comfortable bed. Beautiful and comfortable linens. Ambience lovely. Staff very friendly and helpful. Hard to darken room for sleeping. No coffee or microwave in room. Little to no storage. No surface in bathroom for toiletries.

    Just an incredible home and property

  • Engine customer Mar 2026

    Beautiful property, spotless room, sweetest staff, and great location on the Battery. Loved the option to have daily breakfast in our room. My favorite part was enjoying the rocking chair on the beautiful evenings on the large porch. Would absolutely go back!!

  • Engine customer Mar 2026

    Wonderful historic property, with great rooms and a very professional and helpful staff.

  • Engine customer Mar 2026

    If you are looking for a place to stay and experience the history of Charleston, i highly recommend this special place. Furnished in period antiques and featuring carefully restored and maintained rooms, but with a few modern upgrades, this home is fantastic. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable, and we had a wonderful visit.
