We always left by the front door so people could see us leave. I was raised in Charleston, SC. I love Charleston with all its wonderful quirks and oddities. It is like no other place on Earth, almost surreal. For a true taste of this wonderfully eccentric city, stay at The Governor's House Inn. Enjoy feeling patriarchal. The accomodations are... more

We stayed at the Governor's House for 4 nights. Because we made our reservations at the last minute, we stayed in 3 different rooms. They moved our suitcases to the new room each day. They were extremely helpful and proactive in making dinner reservations for us, especially since it was during Spoleto. We walked to and from the Spoleto events,... more

My wife and I stayed for 5 nights at the Governor's House Inn. It was perfect. We stayed at the Jefferson Suite (upper floor of the Kitchen House) and liked especially the porch with the comfy wicker furniture and the nice view of the neighboring garden.

We splurged for a 4 night stay for our wedding anniversary. The location of the Governor's Inn is perfect, if you want to be away from the main tourist area, and in a quieter location.
