I'm used to a standard hotel chain with cookie-cutter rooms, and that's certainly not what you get at Ansonborough Inn. This place has so much character and charm, it's ridiculous! We booked the premium loft with 1.5 baths for a girl's weekend. Having the comfortable seating area was perfect because we weren't stuck hanging out on beds while chatting in... More

Just wrote a long review and lost it so....bottom line here all was good Except the noise. Whether you stay on the first or third floor you will hear street noise or someone talking in normal conversational tones in the room next door. That doesn't work when someone does that from 1 to 3 am . Complaints to staff were... More

In the past 2 years, we have stayed in the Ansonborough Inn 6 or 7 times and every time we have experienced consistent excellence at this hotel. In every single aspect of this hotel we have encountered professionalism; comfortable and beautiful furnishings; gracious staff; excellent complimentary breakfast, evening snacks and cookies at night! My husband just returned from two nights... More

We go to Charleston every spring for a nice farewell to winter. This inn is our favorite place to stay. The rooms are huge and full of character. No cookie cutter decor here. We have never been bothered by noise. The breakfast has always been very well done when we were there. The location is perfect and easily within walking... More

We stayed at the Ansonborough Inn the week between Christmas and New Years. Upon arrival, they unexpectedly switched our room to something other than what we reserved. It was larger, which was nice, but it was on the ground floor at street level. We discovered that despite the very sophisticated architecture and room furnishings in the hotel, there is very... More

The room was quite unique - very large room, brick walls, high ceiling, fireplace. Close to great restaurants and King Street shopping. Our only issue was at breakfast. There was no coffee. After several people asked about more coffee, the staff retreated to the kitchen, shut the door and never came back out - I finally just made some tea... More

This place is just plain neat. The rooms, the lobby, the decor - everything. It is an old warehouse with very high ceilings - you can stay in cookie cutter rooms anywhere (including Charleston) and pay a lot more. But why? I used to travel to Charleston on business about once a month and I stayed at many, many hotels... More

This was a tough review to give because the building itself and the decor of the rooms and common areas are decorated beautifully. Everything was spotless and the tiny inn appears to be well taken care of. The biggest surprise was the size of our room!!! It was huge!!! All in all the staff was pleasant, location very nice and...
