Hotel Hartness

This is one of our very favorite weekend getaways under a 2-hour drive - gorgeous hotel to say the least BUT it is getting a bit more like a residential chic neighborhood though unfortunately. Staff was great as usual however our dinner at The Patterson was a mess with entries/drinks not arriving for almost an hour - food still amazing and management handled the error favorably which we appreciated - the biggest disappointment though was going down to the amazing complimentary breakfast buffet and finding it switched over to a sandwich/coffee shop to purchase options from 4 breakfast sandwiches - no orange juice even to purchase - even more affordable hotels we’ve stayed at at least had a buffet to chose from - this change may have us looking for a new getaway in the Greenville area. Can’t imagine this not hurting hotel’s high ranking - please bring back the buffet!

Stayed the weekend for a mother-daughter getaway and had the best time. The hotel is beautiful and decorated for the holidays. We enjoyed the fireplaces, spa, breakfast, food from the lounge and walking the trails on the grounds. We were surprised to find a small farmers market with organic produce from the Hartness Farm happening on the property during one of our many walks. The spa was fantastic and easily walkable from our room. We Uber'd into downtown Greenville for dinner each night however upon return We'll definitely give the Patterson a try! I absolutely recommend having one of their charcuterie boards and prosecco waiting in your room when you arrive.

Hotel Hartness remains one of our favorite hotels in the Upstate. We have stayed there several times and always enjoyed the atmosphere as well as the restaurant, Patterson Kitchen + Bar. On our most recent visit, the complimentary breakfast buffet had been replaced by a café, meaning coffee and a light breakfast are now purchased separately. While the experience was still very pleasant, we did miss the previous breakfast offering.

We had an amazing 2 night stay at Hotel Hartness. We were in Greenville for a wedding, short distance from the hotel. The rooms/common area/entire grounds, staff and even the restaurant was extraordinary. We can’t wait to return when warmer and use the pool. It has a true resort feel. The staff made it even more lovely. Everything was easy and beautiful!

We recently had the pleasure of staying at Hotel Hartness for a little staycation during the second annual gala for the Women’s Council of REALTORS® Upstate South Carolina network. Let me just say: it was a five-star experience through and through! The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous, and the food at the gala was delicious—every detail was spot-on, making the entire evening special. But the real highlight was the hotel stay itself. The rooms were stunning—immaculately clean, beautifully appointed, and just as amazing as the rest of the venue. Our room overlooked the pond and pool, offering a peaceful view that made it hard to leave. It felt like our own private retreat tucked inside a luxury resort. We couldn't have asked for a more comfortable or luxurious place to unwind. In short, if you're looking for a perfect combination of elegance and comfort, Hotel Hartness is the place to be. We’ll definitely be back!

Overall, our 4-night stay didn’t quite match the expectations set by the hotel’s online presentation. Nothing about the visit was bad, but it felt more like a standard mid-tier stay than the "Travel & Leisure World's Best" experience we anticipated. Cons: • Spa didn’t feel like a strong value - massage was fine, but very standard for the price with a basic relaxation room. At that price point, I typically expect additional amenities or a more elevated experience • Breakfast was very basic. We've had more selection at a mid-tier hotel • Service was pleasant overall, but nothing stood out as especially attentive or memorable, even with it being a very special occasion for us • Some small conveniences were missing like automatic doors to help with luggage carts • Location wasn’t what we expected..the hotel sits in a neighborhood still under construction. Several trails were closed for construction sites but we weren’t told when we were handed the trail map, so we spent more time backtracking than enjoying. It didn’t feel as much like a peaceful nature escape as we hoped Pros: • Spacious room • Nice bathroom with a garden tub • Great cocktails at the hotel bar • The Patterson was a highlight! Excellent meal and great service • Housekeeping did a great job throughout our stay Overall: It was a perfectly fine stay, but it didn’t align with the price point or how the hotel is positioned online. We’ve had more enjoyable experiences at hotels for less, so we likely wouldn’t return.

I love this hotel! This is the second time I’ve stayed here and it’s simply wonderful the rooms are extremely clean as is the property, but what’s most impressive Is the staff here. I had amazing experiences with the following staff members.: |Blossom in F&B: blossom was delightful to see every morning in the breakfast area. She was attentive. She helped me with certain dietary needs, was extremely friendly and enjoyable to talk to. You are extremely lucky to have her.||Tyesha: Tasha was at the front desk, always with a smile on her face, extremely professional and Customer Service oriented. She was a pleasure to work with anything I needed. She accommodated me and was simply so sweet.. you are very lucky to have her.||Hotel Hartness is my new go to destination in the Greenville area when I travel their own business

I had the pleasure of visiting Hartness Hotel and SPA!!! The Spa was the highlight of my quick getaway weekend from the stress of my daily life. The entire staff were Warm, Welcoming and Explained every detail about the treatments. Walking the grounds around the area was beyond relaxing.... food ,Fantastic!!! I will say if you have an opportunity to visit SPA H, YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!!! From my initial greeting to being escorted to and from my amazing facial after a divine body wrap, I about floated out of the spa. At check out a lovely women , Cathy Carey I believe was her name thanked me for coming ,explained the products. She was extremely knowledgeable not only on the spa, and the hotel but what to go and do in the area!!! I can not wait to return!!! I am in need of additional products that were recommended. I called the Spa directly and they mailed the products that I had not purchased. I wanted to try a few before I purchased more!! Thank you SPA H!! (HOTEL HARTNESS, SOUTH CAROLINA)!

From the moment I arrived at the estate, I felt an immediate sense of calm and escape from the stressors of everyday life. The drive up alone set the tone for a peaceful and luxurious stay. Upon entering the hotel, I was warmly welcomed by two friendly young ladies at the front desk who made the check-in process seamless and inviting. Since I was celebrating my birthday, I booked a Preserve Room with a balcony--and it did not disappoint. The room exuded tranquility and comfort, beautifully designed with modern touches that instantly made me feel at ease. I knew right away that this was the perfect place to unwind and enjoy my spa getaway. That afternoon, I had lunch at The Captain Bar, a cozy lounge featuring a fireplace and soft, ambient lighting. It was the perfect setting to relax and enjoy a delicious meal. The rest of the evening was spent in the serenity of my room, soaking in the quiet and comfort. The next morning began with a workout in the well-equipped fitness center, which offered everything I needed--from treadmills and an elliptical to free weights and a stationary bike. Afterward, I took advantage of the hotel's scenic surroundings and went for a three-mile bike ride around the property. The grounds were immaculate, dotted with ponds and graceful geese, and lined with stunning new estate homes under construction. Later that day, I treated myself to a two-hour spa experience at Spa H, which was nothing short of exceptional. The relaxation lounge provided a peaceful space to unwind before my treatments. Eliana, my massage therapist, gave an incredible hot stone and foot scrub massage, perfectly addressing the areas I had mentioned. Following that, Miriam performed my facial--truly the best one I've ever received. Her skill, care, and kind compliments about my skin made the experience even more special. That evening, I dined at The Patterson, where my waiter, Luke, provided outstanding service. He recommended the half chicken with pickled squash, which was absolutely delicious. To top off my birthday celebration, he crafted a custom cocktail with tequila, rosé, and a little extra flair--a thoughtful touch that made the evening unforgettable. After dinner, I returned to my room to enjoy a soothing bath, the perfect end to my relaxing birthday retreat. Overall, Hotel Hartness exceeded every expectation. The property is stunning, peaceful, and impeccably maintained, with modern, elegant design throughout. Every detail--from the hospitality to the dining and spa services--reflects a commitment to excellence. If you're looking for a serene and luxurious escape to recharge and reconnect with yourself, I highly recommend Hotel Hartness.

Adam and his team including Kathy the Bartendar were so accommodating and ensured since it was my first time that I was taken care of. I would recommend coming here for drinks, appetizers and the restaurant is cool. The highlight are the grounds, amenities and the hotel itself. If you do come as for Adam as he will ensure to guide and help you!

The location is approximately 30 minutes from downtown Greenville. Aside from that, it's a wonderful place to stay. The hotel is clean and offers great spa services. While there isn't much happening around the hotel, it's an ideal choice if you're looking for a quiet and relaxing retreat. This is definitely the hotel for you!

We celebrated our 20th anniversary at this Amazing place!!! Thank you for your Great Hospitality

Two and a half really. Make sure you read the hotel's directions to get to the property - our GPS directed us to a private road that was blocked and didn't give any alternative routes so we had to pull over to find the hotel website and follow its suggested route. It was easy enough after that. The grounds were meticulously groomed, very clean and reminded me of a French country home you might find in a vineyard in Napa, CA. My husband checked us in, and then we drove ever so briefly to the alternative entrance that was closest to the elevators. I was completely shocked and confused when my husband got out and started to schlepp our luggage toward the door. No staff to help? No carts offered? We reluctantly noticed that the heavy double doors had no automatic open. Fine. But where was the handicap button to activate the doors? I'm partially disabled, and sometimes use a wheelchair so I am very cognizant of what kind of access is available anywhere I go. The hallways were spotless and well lit. Upon entering our room, we were a bit disappointed. Lately, everyone in the hotel business seems to be redefining what the word " suite" or jr. suite" can and should mean. Our "holly suite" was nothing more than an oversized room with an extremely spacious bathroom. It was handsomely decorated but sparsely furnished. Oddly, much of the added square footage that came with this room category was left unused and under utilized. There was no sofa, no closet, no shelves in the shower, no hooks adjacent to the shower, and no storage or lined trash receptacle in the separate toilet area. It seemed unhygienic to have a garbage can without a bag. I asked my husband if he received any information about the hotel upon check-in....a map perhaps? Any info on pool use, walking trails, ice, spa, dining? Nope. I had to call the front desk to find out that ice service was not self serve but had to be requested. The original home was used mostly for small intimate public areas. The spa and restaurant were located in other buildings. The sleeping rooms were attached to the house with a hallway of floor to ceiling windows. All was handsomely decorated and exuded a nice atmosphere. The most glaring thing missing on the beautiful grounds, however, was shade - No pergolas, pavilions, umbrellas, gazebos, or even trees. The large pool area could have used some cabanas or other sun shielding tools. Greenville still gets hot in the Spring and Summer and not providing guests with protection from the elements limits the time people can actually enjoy the beautiful surroundings. The photos attached, show both the highs and lows. We noticed too, that the massive bathroom was not " square". Walls and tile were not aligned properly and it was glaringly obvious. Hard to say, if we would come back. The amazing accolades given by others about the hotel's service was not the experience we had. In fact, I think I only saw one staff person during our three night stay. We do give The Hartness management high praise for graciously not charging us for our fourth night. We had to depart early due to illness. Grateful for that gesture.

Lovely boutique hotel on a gorgeous property. Staff was all super friendly and made sure we had a wonderful stay. The on-site restaurant is fabulous with beautiful views, and the spa was top notch!

Marcus and Kwame take a huge amount of pride in that place - and it shows! The warmth from the associates at the front desk into the expansive great room area. Breakfast is currently free with each reservation and Mrs. Blossom is an absolute delight - make sure to say, "Hi!". Lots of trails and nature preserve - this place will be sure to sparkle in the upcoming fall!

Outstanding hotel, Phenomenal Staff! We enjoyed our time staying at Hotel Hartness. The rooms are beautiful, clean & spacious. The staff is friendly. We enjoyed the delicious food and cocktails at Patterson & The Captain. Can't wait to go back.

The management of the Hartness sent my wife and me a kind note of apology and assured us that our earlier trip did not reflect their resort and its quality of service. Amends were offered for which we accepted. I hope to review our next trip to the Hartness at the end of October and describe the experience and the quality of their operation that their management strives for and assures us is the norm.

Incredible. Charming. Bikes for use. You'd never know it was so nearby a commercial area. Private. Beautiful. Pool fantastic. Workout room nice. Room gorgeous!! Food very good. (We ate in the bar area.) Didn't love the fact that they host a lot of parties and that makes this area get NUTS when it's time to eat. I think I'd give feedback that this place needs to find ways to prioritize people staying at their hotel over these events. Serving them is more important. Find a way to fix that at you'll get 5 stars from me.

Nice hotel, but definitely not for the money! The hotel was incredibly hot during our visit. Our room never fully cooled down to the lowest setting of 65. Poor design of the breakfast area so it was cramped and people have to maneuver around each other. Also, not nearly enough seating for guests during busy times.

We stayed at the Hotel Hartness on a couples trip to the Masters. There is construction in the area, but we did not hear any loud noises from it. It appears to be an up and coming area. The grounds on the property were pristine with beautiful landscapes. Plenty of outdoor seating to relax. The hotel has a beautiful modern design. Our room was very clean ( nice shower) with an angled view of the pool ( 213) We arrived early and had a couple of drinks and appetizers at the bar (thanks Chris). Spa H is a short walk from the hotel and we had an amazing couples hot stone massage (thanks Hannah and Lawana ). The night before check out we enjoyed a great meal at Pattersons ( nice cocktails, terrific filet, and amazing key lime cheesecake). Good options for breakfast. I had the bagel and coffee. Sweet staff in the breakfast area and coffee was a good quality. Overall this was a wonderful experience and a very nice place for a relaxing couples get away.

Planned a staycation here for my husband's birthday and fell in love! Beautiful scenery, very quiet, and I loved the bikes and trails that they have available. We utilized the pool and the breakfast nook and was impressed. Will definitely be back!

Beautiful hotel, lovely pool and spa. Service in the bar and restaurant was slow but food and drinks were great. Breakfast area was very crowded , some sort of BMW group were there and having a meeting so other guests had to find other space to eat and it was hard to get to the small buffet room. The breakfast food was very nice but a hassle

My best friend (bride) got married at this venue last weekend. She doesn't like to make waves but I have no problem sticking up for her. Firstly, they called her earlier in the week to confirm that 11am on Friday was her check in time. We didn't receive the room keys until 5pm (right as the rehearsal dinner started). Every guest that was staying at the hotel had their rooms by 2pm at the latest. I was shushed by the bellhop (who picked up his cell phone while talking to me) when I asked if the Bride's stuff could be moved from the honeymoon suite to the room she and I were staying in for the night. When I called the front desk during the rehearsal dinner to try and confirm her stuff had been moved, I was hung up on. Then we tried to get a late checkout the day of the wedding. The "director" at the front desk told the bride we couldn't and the bride was in tears. I then went to the front desk to speak to the "director" and she then agreed to give us a late check out and comp the room for the night for the misunderstanding. The bride still hasn't received a refund for the room a week later. My mom went up to the front desk to ask where the bride was getting ready and the "director" had no idea what wedding was taking place that day. I could go on and on but every person on staff we came in contact with (everyone except for one server named Nicole who took great care of the bride and groom) either had no idea what was going on, made false promises to the bride, or what just plain rude. If you are going to pay $60k just to the venue to have the wedding there you'd like to think you'd at least get decent service. And to be a "luxury" hotel that they claim to be, they sure do like treating a Bride as the scum in the hotel. 10/10 would NOT recommend.

Firstly, the Hotel is beautifully designed and the grounds are picturesque. The problem is the staff said they would do something but never did it. I believe you have world-class facilities. On par with the Ritz. It is unfortunate that the service is more on par with the Red Roof Inn.

Beautiful hotel, friendly staff but false advertising on the room we booked. Staff was even aware that the pictures online for the room were not actually the pictures of the room we booked. The fridge also didn't work or open. The staff was nice and stored our food.

My husband and I stayed here for 3 nights and wish we had more time! There was breakfast every morning which was a little more elevated than continental. You can absolutely tell that the hotel and rooms were brand new and had no expense spared. Everything was solid and very good quality. The lounging rooms with the fireplaces were stunning! I wish we had taken advantage of the spa and restaurant on the premises, but not only was this close to the airport, but a very secluded and enjoyable stay. We will definitely be back next time we are in Greenville

AMAZING service!!! Wonderful staff who are very hospitable. I had to take off 2 stars because of a privacy complaint. There is not much privacy in the bathrooms in your room. There are no fans and the door is a thin sliding door. You can hear everything going on in the bathroom like you're in the same room with the person. Also, there is no access to a microwave for guests. Kind of a bummer when you want left overs from eating out. The place is otherwise clean, beautifully decorated, and a nice experience. I probably won't go back though unless they add fans and/or change the bathroom doors.

What a beautiful setting. The staff is all about making the stay there as perfect as possible. Tierra, Lauren, Jackson, Belinda, Brody - THANK YOU!!! The Kelbes know you rock!

Alex the bartender is probably the rudest employee I've ever met at any hotel. I've been here three times now and it'll be our last. I rant about this place to everyone and it'll be my last. Do better this place is going downhill if they continue to employee guys like this.

We usually take a direct route down south to the beaches in South Carolina but this time we changed our itinerary spur of the moment heading west to Greenville, SC. Having never been there my beautiful wife did her research and found the PERFECT hotel for our stay! Hotel Hartness is incredible!!! It's minimalist luxurious relaxing and refreshing! The grounds and amenities empty your brain of all the day to day minutia and transform your thoughts to more important matters like what am I going to do next...lounge by the quiet serene pool, or a walk through the endless walking trails, or a bike ride through the countryside, or pampering yourself at the spa, or just relaxing with a book in the quiet sitting areas, or lose yourself in the tranquil perfectly groomed courtyard and terrace listening to the birds, admiring the trees or wondering what fish are in the surrounding ponds! If that's not enough reason to come and stay at Hotel Hartness the staff and everyone involved with this facility are first class exuding hospitality! We were cordially greeted by Karl (a really kind and pleasant man) who directed us to the front desk managed by Lauren, Director of Rooms, and Jackson, Front Office Manager. From the moment we entered it was evident that both Lauren and Jackson were going to make sure every second we spent at Hotel Hartness were going to be SO incredible we would never want to leave...and we didn't...we extended our stay! Our heartfelt thanks to Lauren and Jackson you are TRUE assets to HH and we appreciate your professionalism, kindness, caring and above and beyond hospitality! Our thanks also to Elsa in assisting with extending our stay...it was seamless and went off without a care in the world! As for the rooms...they are SPOTLESS and IMMACULATE! Minimalistic from wall to wall and the bathroom is too! Molton Brown bath products are a treat accent the spa like shower... rain shower and shower wand alike...you could stay in there for hours, but don't because an amazing super comfortable bed with soft welcoming linens await! There's a mini fridge and an in room Illy coffee and espresso machine help you get your days started right! Last but certainly not least are the two amazing restaurants on premises, The Captain located just off the front desk, more of a leisure bar atmosphere. You are in GREAT hands with Jason who has an unbelievable gift for gab and Alex who tempers Jason and is polished and personable. We've been told they are the BEST bartenders in Greenville and even though we don't drink judging from the bar crowd we know that's true! We had dinner at The Captain after our long trip and Chef Elvis' special was mouthwatering delicious... our compliments ...Elvis was definitely in the building! Also on premises across the courtyard is The Patterson Restaurant. A totally different vibe...fine dining at its best! Minimalist carries over from the hotel...total glass and brass with an open kitchen and jam packed bar...make sure to make a reservation ... you will not be sorry! Delmonico and salmon entrees were delectable and prepared to perfection! Our server Kat was terrific! We'll conclude with one of THE MOST incredible people you will ever have the pleasure of meeting! In our minds "the one and ONLY" Belinda. She is your breakfast buffet manager, but SO MUCH MORE. She puts the capital "H" in Hospitality!!! Sweet, kind, caring, professional and SO personable! After one morning with her you'll feel like you've know her for years. Her attention to detail and the enormous PRIDE she has for her profession is unmatched! Belinda is truly ONE OF A KIND and we are SO lucky to have gotten to know her! Well, if you've gotten this far hopefully you'll conclude that the only place to stay when visiting Greenville is Hotel Hartness!!!

My husband and I have the wonderful opportunity to stay at the Hotel Hartness while we were visiting Greenville, SC and I have no idea how to condense all the great things to say about this place! To begin with it looks more like a very welcoming resort than a hotel. Before we could even step into the door our bags were scooped up by a very nice guy, Joe, who I enjoyed talking to while my husband was checking in. The entire common areas are so tastefully decorated I felt at home immediately. Our room was perfect with a lovely view of the pond. We had an extremely comfortable bed and it was obvious that the details of the room were well thought out ( they even had this basket with a lid as part of the room decorations that I quickly pulled down to put all my vitamins and meds in ).The hotel is part of a small "town" experience I think Hartness is trying to establish on these 500 acres because they have a section of very charming houses you can rent for a months ( better extended stay option) and plans for shops, stores and more restaurants. They also offer 15 miles of trails through picturesque woods with bikes to borrow. And did I mention the barn and the 100 chickens? Very cute. I saw at least 4 places to stage a wedding. And the finishing touch was the General Manager Albert L. Mertz sent a very thoughtful note and macaroons to our room. Our elegant dinner at Patterson's was delicious and even with a large table of friends it was easy to hear conversation. And thank you Michael Bonasia for making sure everything for our stay was perfect. We will definitely return here on our next trip to Greenville.
