My husband and I stayed at Wentworth for three nights celebrating our 15th anniversary. Such a beautiful place and the staff was happy to share the history and pointed out all the special details. Location was convenient to walk to the historic area and all the nearby outstanding restaurants. The staff was over the top and so helpful and friendly. We really enjoyed the breakfast included at Circa and the happy hour each night where we would gather with the other guests each night to share our stories of the day. Many special touches they provide throughout or stay, just made it so special. We look forward to returning for another trip in the future. Highly recommend.

Wentworth Mansion was the perfect place for our honeymoon!! We loved every moment of our experience at the mansion. It is elegant, romantic, charming, and comfortable. The extra touch of daily amenities like coffee and pastries in the parlor with classical music in the background added a touch of class and pleasure to our daily routines. The location is great. We walked the few blocks to King Street and the Market daily with ease. The staff was helpful and friendly -- ready to serve us at any time. We WILL be going back to Wentworth Mansion! And the convenience of Circa 1886 restaurant, along with their delicious food options, is a tremendous bonus!

Recently, my wife and I took a short break to So Carolina.. and thought, why pick the usual hotel accommodations.. (as we were in Charleston.. maybe something a bit more traditional?) We chose the Wentworth Mansion.. (thinking an old southern home may be just the thing). While the mansion did not disappoint, the real plus was the staff. Innkeeper (Lisa) assembled a team, that... were either cast (for a reality show?.. or sitcom! ) The staff is.. Informative, helpful, charming, and entertaining! All were great, but special kudos to Bryan Ball (concierge). His knowledge of the property (and of Charleston) were unsurpassed. My wife went to great lengths.. building the question to "stump Bryan".. and he always had the answer! Bellman Joel, Ryder, concierge Tristan (and also the lovely young lady at the desk whose name I can't remember!) Definitely the place to stay..

We were in town for a wedding and the Wentworth was perfect. The entire old city was walkable from it, the staff was beyond exceptional and the breakfast was top tier. I'm not sure how to adequately praise the staff, their enthusiasm for the property was apparent and there was never any chinzy money games with amenities or service.

Lovely, historic home. Our room was wonderful with a separate sitting area for reading. The staff went above and beyond with attention and goodies throughout the day. Walkable to most things in town. Will go back.

“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.”
