We loved our stay at the Elliott house, the room was so unique and a perfect example of historic Charleston’s history and the staff couldn’t have been more helpful. The courtyard was beautiful, with its variety of greenery and birds, very relaxing atmosphere in a busy city. We can’t wait to go back!!! more

We appreciate you taking the time to comment on your recent stay with us! I was excited to read how much you enjoyed the courtyard greenery and plants. This is one of my favorite amenities of our inn. Be sure to come back and visit again in the near future. The fall months in Charleston are equally as beautiful as...

The Elliott House was WONDERFUL! Nice staff, clean, quaint, and in a perfect location! It was our 10 yr anniversary and my husband and I treated ourselves to a trip to Charleston! We had friends refer us to the Elliott House Inn. When we arrived, it was breathtaking! The Inn is in terrific condition, rooms spotless. We enjoyed the morning... more

This inn looks great online but watch out...the window didn't open, the room was very small and very dark, there was no closet (just a small armoire), there were holes in the sheets and the bathroom was not clean. The worst part was the wedding which took place outdoors at the museum right near the inn, late into the night.... more

Thank you for taking the time to comment on your recent stay with us! Aside from the small rooms, I’m sorry to read of you discovering torn sheets and a dirty bathroom in your room upon check-in. Was anyone from my staff notified of this? We were in a position where we could have moved your room, if needed. Without...

We were VERY disappointed with the Elliott House Inn overall. We visit Charleston 2-3 times a year and wanted to try a different hotel than the ones we usually stay in on this visit. The room was EXTREMELY tiny, so much so that it was not easy to move around and get ready. The water pressure in the shower was... more

I am quite sorry to read of your recent stay with us. While I cannot control the size of room most of the issues, if not all could have remedied, I believe, had we been given the opportunity. I’m sorry to hear that the remote control, water pressure and a/c were out of service or too loud for you. Had...

According to our guidebook, Elliott House was one of the lower priced hotels in Charleston. Even so, we thought that $180/night would bring a nice room and excellent service. While we did get a decent room, clean towels and a continental breakfast, in the end we felt it was overpriced and wouldn't stay there again. The Wi-fi didn't work in... more

What a wonderful Inn. The employees were extremely friendly and helpful with questions regarding sightseeing in the area. The room was just what you would expect in an historic inn. It had the amenities of a modern hotel with the charm of a lovely inn. They served wine and cheese at 4:30 in the court yard, which was really enjoyable... more

The Elliott House was a bit disappointing. I had envisioned a B&B with a comfortable common area. The room where we checked in was the only common space aside from the courtyard, which wasn't used in the cold days during our stay. My husband would have liked to have had a place to read a book outside the room, but... more

Thank you for taking the time to comment on your recent stay at Elliott House Inn. Unfortunately, the size of our traditional queen rooms are a bit on the small side, I’m sorry that you and your husband were uncomfortable with the size. You will find that our traditional king size rooms and our Bernard Elliott suite provide ample room...

I'm an attorney in D.C., and had a hearing set in Charleston. I booked a room though our travel agency to stay at the Elliott House Inn. Two days before the Thursday hearing the Judge cancelled and reset the hearing. I called to cancel my stay at the Elliott House, but the guy answering the phone said he didn’t even... more

I appreciate your thoughts regarding the cancellation of your reservation. Please understand that we create cancellation policies for a reason. We are a tiny property. When we loose a reservation due to a cancellation, we need the 72 hours that we require for cancellations to try and re-coup that booking. Most of our business is leisure travelers that schedule vacation...

My husband and I attended an annual Christmas party at the Mills House just across the street from the Elliott House. We are antique buffs and loved the suite which had some real antiques as well as all modern amenities. We have stayed in a number of 4 star hotels and none of them were as comfortable and spacious as... more

Thank you so much for taking the time to comment on your recent visit to Elliott House Inn. I'm very pleased that you enjoyed your time here! Our Bernard Elliott Suite is hands down one of my favorite rooms in the inn. It truly is one of Charleston's best kept secrets. I look forward to seeing you in future visits...

The Inn is perfectly located! And very charming... I am getting married in Charleston in May and most of my family and friends are staying here as its location is perfect. I have never been inside the inn until this past weekend. I loved the courtyard, however, when I walked in the room, I was a little shocked. The room... more

I’m sorry to read of your current stay at Elliott House Inn. I’m concerned to read that the plumbing was not running during the duration of your stay. I never was notified by guests or staff that we experienced any plumbing problems, this is the first I or my staff has heard this. Since this sounds like it was an...
