Reviews for Rhett House Inn

Lovely old mansion, just don't stay in the basement

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 week ago

The Inn itself is a grand old mansion with a beautiful sweeping front terrace... with no real views. The interior common rooms are lovely -- pay attention to the details in the woodwork - stunning. The bedding in the guest rooms is plush and oh-so-comfy! Bath robes are an appreciated plus. Breakfast is basic, albeit delicious, filling and well prepared. The staff is fabulous! Everyone was very friendly and helpful. We managed to leave prescription medications behind and didn't realize it until we arrived home that evening. We called them immediately and they went out of their way to locate them and overnight them to us. SO very much appreciated. And for this reason alone we would return. Disliked · Cleanliness in our room left something to be desired. There was a layer of dust at the bottom of the vanity and on all the baseboards. The tv remote slid between the mattress and the headboard, so we had to reach under the bed to fish it out -- nasty... there was a half consumed water bottle under there and a lot of dust - yuck! Downstairs rooms are basically in the basement. Stairs are steep. Although there are windows, there are no views -- ours was of the AC unit. Overall, we would stay here again for the location, the fabulous staff, the filling breakfast and the overall atmosphere of the place. But we would choose a room on one up the upper floors or one of the cottages... and cross our fingers that housekeeping does a better job in those than in the rooms in the basement.

Book direct with the Inn!

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 weeks ago

Book direct with the Inn!!! I learned the hard way. Don't use reservations.com! Add on fees in excess of $100! Nice historic Inn. This was our 2nd time staying here. Walk to waterfront and downtown restaurants only a few blocks. Early evening cheese & crackers and later desserts are provided.

Southern Charm at Its Best: A Perfect Stay at The Rhett House Inn

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 month ago

We absolutely loved our stay at The Rhett House Inn in Beaufort! From the moment we arrived, we were charmed by its historic beauty and the incredibly warm and welcoming staff. The location is perfect—right in the heart of the Historic District and close to everything we wanted to explore. Our room was cozy, spotless, and had a lovely private veranda where we enjoyed our morning coffee. The Southern-style breakfast was amazing (we’re still thinking about those blueberry pancakes!!!), and the desserts in the evening were such a sweet touch. The staff really went above and beyond to make sure we had a great stay, offering really helpful recommendations and always making us feel at home. If you’re visiting Beaufort, this is the place to stay—full of charm, comfort, and great hospitality. We can’t wait to come back!

Worn out Inn

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 months ago

This place is tired. Soiled rugs and carpets. Paint spots on floors. Painted putty everywhere filling in rotted wood. Bathroom so small my knees hit bathtub while sitting on toilet. Wife and I could not fit in bathroom at same time. Closet smelled moldy.

Rhett House Inn was beautiful and located within walking distance of many sights in Beaufort. The bicycles were appreciated as we explored the neighborhood of historic homes. Hospitality was top notch, staff were helpful with tips for activities and my husband loved the fresh baked cookies. I would definitely stay at the Inn again.

The Rhett House Inn was fabulous! The staff was very friendly and really made us feel at home. You can easily walk to restaurants and to the waterfront; the beach, Paris Island and Savannah are within easy driving distance.
