I just learned about Trip Advisor and am pleased to recommend Phoebe Pember House as my favorite place to stay in Charleston. I will be leaving this week for my fourth visit--an annual treat. In the midst of the historic district, this architecturally charming property is graced with caring owners and staff. In addition to the great location and parking,... more

I am actually writing my review a little late as my husband and I actually stayed here last August. We did have a wonderful time and when we return to Charleston, I would definitely consider staying here again. While we booked a room in the main house, we were moved to the carriage house on arrival and had the entire... more

We loved our third stay at this charming home. Each visit has revealed new and more interesting discoveries of both Charleston and this historic house. The perfect location of Phoebe Pember House allows us to arrive, park our car, and venture throughout historic downtwon Charleston. The only time we get in our car is to take the easy drive (15... more

A friend had stayed here when they first opened and told me that while there were a few kinks that needed to be worked out, she was sure they would have been worked out. She then went on to describe how beautiful the room was. Well, the room nice but the service was poor as there was no "silver plate... more

We have many guest books filled with lovely messages so when a message like this is posted, it comes as a great surprise. We have the highest standards of service, a category one historic property (which is the highest category Charleston gives) and a property that is architecturally distinctive as a Charleston Federal Style Single house with carriage houses. From...

First let me say that the staff was very hospitable and warm. We were served breakfast on a silver platter. We had access to the kitchen, the piazzo, and the patios. The rooms were cozy, but too small for our liking. I did feel a little misled by the beautiful photos that are shown on the website and feel that... more

Do not bother to view the Phoebe Pembe House website since it is misleading, to say the least. It shows a beautiful four poster bed in a spacious bedroom - NO. It indicates piazzas with rocking chairs on which to relax and view the walled gardens - NO. It has photographs of a gorgeous sitting area in the bedrooms and... more

In an effort to ensure that guests have excellent experiences staying with us, we employ an innkeeper, an assistant administrator, a housekeeper, and part-time staff. In the case of this guest's dissatisfaction, we admit and regret that she was not greeted with the degree of personal attentiveness we would have wished, largely for the reasons she stated, that the owner...

When arrived at Phobe Pember House the manager was not on site and had left for vacation. We were charged double the price quoted by Anne. That started our stay on the wrong foot. After a few nights and my persistence the owner finally agreed to decrease the price by splitting the difference quoted (so I still ended up paying... more

First let me say that I came across all the reviews of the Phoebe Pember House on the day we were leaving for our trip to Charleston and could not cancel our reservation or I would have based upon what I read. Instead, I called and left a message for Anne Shue, the property’s manager voicing my concerns. This trip... more

We arrived on Friday night at 5:30 and the innkeepers had gone. I found it odd that no one was there to great us but that was ok. Our room was cramped and OLD! The bathroom was tiny and grimy. This inn is very, very, very old. Which is charming.... slightly. If you are going there for a romantic weekend... more

My wife and I stayed at Phoebe Pember on our trip to Charleston a few months ago. Let me first say that we have stayed in many B&B’s across the country. Unfortunately, this stay ranked pretty low on our list. To be fair, there were good points. But in end, the bad far outweighed the good for us. Positives: 1)... more
