The Willcox Hotel is tucked into the sweetest town in the south, Aiken, SC. I visit Aiken every year and am always anxious to return to the this boutiquey hotel. The amenities are analogous to any Ritz or Four Seasons, and the staff are sweet and "on it". You can walk everywhere in town from the hotel, to polo, to... More

We arrived Thursday and were pleased to find an fantastic Jazz band playing so we cozied up on a big couch, enjoyed some wine and great paté. The room was gorgeous and the bed was so comfortable I had the best night sleep I had had in a long time. The rocking chairs on the front porch made a splendid... More

I have stayed at The Willcox 4 or 5 times in the last 2 years, with the most recent trip a month ago. Once for a getaway with my husband, the rest of the time with our 2 kids in tow. The weekend we spent as a couple was fantastic. We stayed in the Churchill suite - beautiful, private and... More

Although we live local hubby made plans for us to stay for a special weekend and while the spa, people and personality of the hotel stands out, it doesn't quite hit 5 star, it's the little yet obvious misses in up keep that surprised me, old paint, worn furniture, towels with ragged edges... I guess the worst part is our... More

We booked 12/24/12-12/27/12. The management was on vacation those dates. I ordered and paid $75 for a 7' - 8' Christmas tree. I got there and it was under 5'. Staff said 'what do you expect, I ran all over Aiken today (12/24) and this is all there was, we can't store trees ya know.' I brought my Marine sons... More

The staff is very welcoming and accommodating. The hotel and the rooms have old fashion charm. We stayed in the Washington Suite, which is 2 spacious rooms. One is the usual large bed room and very spacious bathroom. The adjacent large room has an additional TV as well as, a couch and chairs. We stayed only one night, it was... More

I just returned from several nights at the Willcox and found it to be an unforgettable experience. It is beautifully decorated and the rooms are comfortable and welcoming. We also had an amazing dinner in the restaurant and the staff was more than helpful, even to the point of giving me a beautiful cane when they discovered I had fallen... More

Crafted from a gilded age, this historic hotel is a true hidden gem. The lost art of actual service is ever-present from a highly skilled staff: from the receptionist, to the bartenders, waiters, managers, highly accomplished international chefs and of course, the friendly husband and wife owners. Every effort is taken to make sure that each visit is a special... More

We have just returned from our fifth or sixth stay at The Willcox, and it was mostly a pleasure. The hotel is still beautiful and well managed. The rooms are large and comfortable; the food is good; the pool is pretty (but freezing still, in April). The staff is always warm and welcoming, and housekeeping does an excellent job in... More
