I have stayed at the Phoebe Pember House a number of times over the past year and am always delighted by my rooms, the pleasant staff, the morning breakfast, and the unique amenities this bed and breakfast offers. The Phoebe Pember House is a one-of-a-kind lodging because it offers yoga, meditation, and even private counseling on-site in a calming, centered... More

I know Charleston, I know Charleston bed and breakfasts, and believe me, you can do LOTS better than the Phoebe Pember House! I booked the carriage house for a couple of days' stay in September---we'd brought friends from France who'd never been to Charleston and thought having that extra space would be ideal for two couples. Besides, the photos of... More

This had to be the most horrific B&B experience I have ever had! Very overpriced tacky closet of a bedroom. Antiques Not! Beuatiful art Not! Website is very misleading - have no idea who Ms Pember was or what the house looked liked. If you want breakfast go into town. rock hard Muffins and croissant....Yum. smelly room...noise from the street... More

I found Phoebe Pember house to be just the peaceful retreat I needed to get away and quiet my thoughts. The bedding in the Kitchen House room was just too luxurious to stay out of, so nap time was on the agenda - and blissful. The Yoga right there on the property was unlike any I'd experienced in 10 years... More

I couldn’t have envisioned a better place to spend our wedding anniversary! The carriage house was the perfect choice, very quiet and with its own private entrance. We found the breakfast to be exceptional. We especially loved all the organic offerings. You just don't find that too many places. Your custom-made granola is the best we've ever been served. The...

Inkeeper met us, showed us our room with gorgeous antiques in it . Comfortable bed and atmosphere. Every request was responded to. Breakfast bountiful, beautiful, nutritious, engaging conversation. Group microwave and refrigerator helpful. Meditative, quiet surroundings for personal retreat. Forward looking offerings - I attended four extremely helpful programs. More

In my several stays at Phoebe Pember House I consistently experienced southern hospitality at its finest. The staff welcomed me with friendliness, courtesy and competence. My room was comfortable, with furnishings from the old south, creating an atmosphere of another age in which each piece was individually crafted with skill and care. I could look out the window of my... More

We went to the Phoebe Pember House expecting it to be an oasis in Charleston, a historic B&B providing peace, quiet and the option of yoga. Instead we found it noisy, not providing the basic things you expect from a B&B and none of the 'touches' we found at other B&Bs we stayed in during our trip in the South.... More

A travel writer years ago described Pheobe Pember House as an oasis in the heart of historic Charleston. We thought it a lovely testament to their stay with. Since then, we have had many guests who do describe Phoebe Pember House as an oasis in the heart of historic Charleston, who enjoy greatly the room these guests inaccurately described, and... More

Be aware that if you need to cancel a reservation there is a $25 service charge. I cancelled more than 2 weeks prior to my reservation due to a family medical issue which caused me to cancel my trip. I was told that the innkeeper had informed me of a cancellation service charge when I made my reservation - which... More

First let me say that I came across all the reviews of the Phoebe Pember House on the day before we were leaving for our trip to Charleston and could not cancel our reservation or I would have based upon what I read. My friend and I were excited about visiting Charleston and experiencing a B&B. I am taking responsibility... More
