A very lovely old home built in 1886. The rooms are large and comfortable. The property needs some T.L.C. but overall it is in good shape. Room service is not readily available, but the room comes stocked with soda and water; however the beverage refrigerator was not restocked on my second day.

My wife and I were married at the Wentworth Mansion 9 years ago and it was amazing. We went back this year for our 9th anniversary and it's only gotten better. We did not let anyone know it was our anniversary or that we were married there, but the staff figured it out and made special note of it upon... More

THE HOUSE: This is a beautiful and gracious restored Victorian mansion that will take you back in time. Anyone who has an interest in architecture or Victorian period interior design will especially love this place. The multiple Tiffany windows (many of them original), chandeliers, paneling, hand carved marble fireplaces and staircase bannister are breathtaking. The hinges and plates on the... More

Staying at this restored 1886 mansion was wonderful, but the kind, genuine and unpretentious staff was better! Having just flown in from Seattle (where my tomatoes and petunias were begging for a temperature exceeding 58 degrees!) I can scarcely tell you what a pleasure it was to have breakfast (complimentary) on the patio with birds chirping in and an 85... More

Thank you for an exceptional review of the Wentworth Mansion. It must have been a real treat to escape Washington for Charleston during the month of May!

We were drawn to this hotel by the reviews of other travelers. It is over rated as a small luxury hotel for the accommodations. For the rates charged you should receive outstanding accommodations and service. What you are paying for is to stay in an 1886 converted mansion. For $500 a night (incl. tax), Mansion Suite, you should not have... More

My brother-in-law and I both turned 40 this month and we decided to go to Charleston to celebrate the occasion for a long Memorial Day weekend.

This lovely mansion has been restored with a care that preserves its original spirit. The rooms are lovely and the bathrooms sumptuous. The breakfast and 5 o'clock 'cheese & wine' are so much more than one is used to. In all the effects it is much more than a B&B - more like a small boutique 5 star hotel. But... More

Excellent room, service, and dining. Fifth floor viewing area is great. Stairs to lobby may be a problem for some seniors. Walking to major shopping and historic sites. Circa 1886 restaurant puts on good breakfasts and has $42 three course dinners for guests -- a great value.
