The 18 Best Hotels in Charleston, South Carolina - AFAR
"Located in a stately 1763 townhouse built by John Rutledge that later served as the state's first White House and still bears a Union cannonball scar, this lovingly restored inn preserves period details such as towering ceilings, carved marble mantelpieces, canopied beds, and working gas fireplaces across the main house and two carriage houses. Guests enjoy nightly port, brandy, and sherry; afternoon tea and hors d’oeuvres; and an extensive breakfast that can be served in-room, in the garden, or in the ballroom." - Devorah Lev-Tov
