“Great Location, Shabby Interior”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed May 19, 2013 NEW

The best thing the Carriage House Inn offers is its location on Laurens in historic downtown Aiken. Walk out the front door directly to shops and restaurants. Once inside, I was disappointed. My room was in the front of the Inn facing Laurens Street and was quite noisy. The window coverings consisted of cheap metal blinds which didn't function that... More

“A cozy little inn downtown”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed April 9, 2013

The Carriage House Inn is contained in a handsome large 2 story Victorian house and a one story newer brick one story wing at the rear facing onto a courtyard. We stayed in a second story queen room upstairs in the main house since I like the warmth and personality of old homes very much. Check in and out was... More

Thank you for your review of the Carriage House Inn. We were honored to have you as our guest. We have spoken to the yard crew next door to the Inn and they are no longer coming early in the morning. We are sorry that they woke you up. If you return to Aiken, we hope that you will stay... More

“Comfortable and right downtown.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed March 11, 2013

Once again we had a lovely stay at the Carriage House Inn. The location is perfect. You can walk to everything. The inn is very clean and comfortable and the staff friendly. The breakfast is not huge but ample and very good.

“Excellent”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 10, 2013

I stayed at the Carriage House Inn for four nights in December, and it was wonderful. We stayed in an apartment in the back courtyard, which included a living room, kitchen, workspace, bedroom, and bathroom. The space was really comfortable, cozy, and charming. Breakfast every day in the main house was excellent. They even kept the kitchen open a little... More

“gem in downtown Aiken”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 29, 2012 via mobile

My daughter and I loved being downtown Aiken, just down the block from Trinity on Lauren's where we visited my grandmother. She was so proud to suggest we stay at the Carriage House Inn and now I fully understand why.The House, grounds, and staff are lovely. Abby, Angie, Andrea and Megan took great care of us on our recent stay... More

“Quaint and comfortable”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 21, 2012

I stayed for 3 nights on a business trip. The building was really quaint and well kept, my room was lovely and the breakfast service was great. The only downside for me was that there was no tea/coffee making facilities in the room. A complementary bottle of water each night would have been nice especially given the room rate

“Cozy and relaxing!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 19, 2012 via mobile

We stayed 2 nights here for a wedding in Aiken. I've never stayed at a B&B before, but I was very impressed! It was so clean and cozy. The room was very large with a huge flat screen TV and large jetted tub. Although we were the photographers for the wedding and there for work, I felt so relaxed. Everyone... More

“Wonderful Small Hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed June 14, 2012

Terrific service -- they called before we arrived to suggest changing our room due to a heavy rainstorm. Quaint room, quite large. Excellent breakfast -- you have to have the grits if you want to please the chef! Locals eat here, too. An in-town location, fine for walking and exploring. Many friends have stayed here -- and we are glad... More

“Not what I had hoped”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed May 28, 2012

Traveled to Aiken for business and was excited about being able to stay at the inn for the per diem rate. My wife and I have stayed at many B&B's, and I guess I had higher expectations; I enjoy staying in an historic house because I like the "history" of the house. Unfortunately, there was only one picture of the... More

Easy parking and a great Southern town. The Willcox does great Sunday lunch. View from screened-in porch Southern hospitality is not a myth.
