Enjoyed a wonderful stay in Charleston at the Ansonborough. The check-in process was quick and the staff were pleasant. Our room was clean, spacious and we loved the decor as well as the architecture at this boutique hotel. The parking is very conveniently located across the street and there are plenty of shops and restaurants within walking distance of the hotel.

I highly recommend The Ansonborough! I loved the decor of the renovated c1900 building. The rooms were unique in design and beautiful. They had a small bar in the lobby with a cool vibe. The staff were very friendly and helpful with recommendations of things to do. One employee even took the time to let me know I had a flat tire on my rental car! This was amazing as I wouldn't have known it until I left to go to the airport, and that would have been stressful! On this note, super easy parking on site. Don't hesitate to book this lovely hotel, super convenient to explore Charleston by foot.

Couples Getaway

What a beautiful hotel. The staff was friendly, and so helpful. Carrie at the front desk allowed us to drop our luggage while we grabbed a bite to eat since we arrived earlier than checking. Since our room was ready and we were still out, Carrie took our luggage to our room. Tamara made us an amazing old-fashioned and was very attentive to anything else we needed. Tammy, I believe was her name, makes the most delicious cook to order breakfast from the menu.

Old warehouse in historic district converted into hotel. Excellent blend of modern and historic style. Truly different and unique from the corporate chains. Intimate setting with unique special feel. One of the cleanest and best maintained hotels I have ever been in. Totally recommend; would definitely stay here again.

True Customer Service

The space is lovely. The rooms - quiet and spacious. But what stood out most to me was the customer service. I appreciate that the breakfast host saw I wasn’t intrigued by the breakfast menu and suggested a restaurant not far from the location. This reminded me of “Miracle on 34th Street” where Chris refers a Macy’s customer to Gimbles for the gift they sought. More spaces should offer customer service such as this.

Lost Reservation

Beautiful hotel; however, they couldn’t find my reservation despite me showing my Information from Hotels.com confirmation information. Fortunately, they had an available room, and I asked to be moved to a different floor because I don’t like being on the ground floor. They did accommodate my request, and the room was aesthetically pleasing & comfort- but the new room did smell like someone had smoked in it previously.
