The staff were fantastic as was the mansion. The mansion is truly one-of-a-kind. Built over 100 years ago and still almost entirely original. The carved wooden detail throughout, carved marble fireplaces and stained glass were exquisite. The staff, especially Bryan, were engaging and knew the history of the mansion's details inside and out. They also provided wonderfully informed suggestions for activities and sights around the Charleston area (such as the best plantations to visit) as well as places to eat. We loved the early morning coffee/tea with croissants that were available before we headed over to the carriage house for an amazing breakfast. If available, try the raspberry/peanut butter croissants. Surprisingly delicious! Afternoon wine and appetizers were also delightful. And we often enjoyed a bit of complementary port after returning from dinner in town. We dined one evening at the onsite restaurant, Circa 1886, which was very good, not rushed, and the staff was excellent. Our room was the former mens billiard room at the top of the mansion. Lots of room, sumptuous bedding, and just down the hall from the cupola with inside and outside 360 views of Charlestown. Staying just a bit outside of the bustling downtown was a good decision. The walk into town was well lit, safe, and a nice distance for a walk post-dinner, away from the crowds and noise of a busier section of downtown. Overall, a wonderful stay and we'd definitely stay here again when we are in town.

We once again visited the Wentworth for Thanksgiving. As always, everything about our stay was excellent. The accommodations and staff make this hotel feel like a (very, very nice) home away from home. The working fireplace and the jacuzzi tub make the rooms so special. We also enjoy the wine and appetizers every evening. We have met some very nice people who also enjoy the Wentworth. We were there earlier this year to celebrate Valentine’s Day, and later, a birthday. We look forward to our next stay.

I appreciate Hilton partnering with Wentworth Mansion in Charleston, SC. I would encourage you to become a Hilton Diamond member and plan on making a reservation at the Wentworth Mansion. The staff were incredible. Annie, Will, Christin, Kevin, and Chelsea always had a smile and had the desire to make our stay very comfortable. They encouraged us to consider the mansion our home. We enjoyed social hour from 5-6 pm and provided wine and apps to be enjoyed with other guest. The apps and danishes the following morning were a culinary delight. The breakfast was 5 stars and I encourage you to enjoy the peanut strawberry danish with home made sausage. Jeff and I are ready to return and Abbie (our dog) will be joining us! This hotel and the team made us feel like we were at home and we now consider the Wentworth Mansion home away from home.

We just left a weekend getaway at the Wentworth Mansion. The opulence and grandeur are unparalleled! It was a wonderful experience. The bed was very comfortable, and the room was well appointed. We enjoyed the morning coffee and pastries, afternoon tea and lemonade, happy hour hors d'oeuvres, and evening port, cognac and brandy. Breakfast at Circa next door was wonderful. We enjoyed the hotel’s location away from the hustle and bustle of King Street, which is only a short walk over. The best part of the trip was our concierge, Bryan. He was a doll! He told us a lot of wonderful history about the area and was a delight to talk to every evening. Highly recommend staying here!

“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.”
