Loved our stay!

We absolutely loved our stay and wished we could have stayed longer. The mansion is beautiful with so much history and our room was very comfortable and surprisingly quiet. The bath was wonderful especially with a fireplace right there. We ate at the restaurant which was incredible- had the two tasting menus which was so fun and highly recommended. Parking is a breeze. But would have to say the best part was the lovely gentleman that checked us in as he’s a gem! Would highly recommend staying at the Wentworth Mansion and we will definitely be back hopefully for a longer stay!!!

Unbelievable place !!!!!!

The staff was unbelievable especially Diane, Kevin, Fiona, and in the restaurant I think it was Laura and Jenifer. We will definitely be back what a fabulous place and the food was amazing. Best shrimp, and grits we ever had for breakfast.??? Dinner in the restaurant was amazing. We had the grouper and the steak and both were wonderful. The room was beautiful. Love the turn down service. Enjoyed the wine and hors d’oeuvres at 5 o’clock.

The Wentworth Mansion was an absolutely amazing hotel. The staff is so friendly and cannot do enough to make you feel special. The hotel thinks of everything that travelers always appreciate. Free bottles of water by the back door, chocolates on the pillows at night, turn down service, free breakfast, free cocktails and appetizers. They also have Brigerton music playing throughout the mansion. It was a very special trip and I can’t wait to go back.

Nice historic hotel

If you like historic facilities, this is the place for you. Service was top notch. Took us a couple of hours to get the room warm. Drafty, slow to heat. Bathroom was up 5 steep stairs, and our bath ceiling was about 6’ high. Beautiful small “library” common rooms to enjoy a book and a glass of wine. Circa 1886 was excellent. Breakfast was the best part! This is in a walking neighborhood, but there are no shops or other restaurants.

Nice but better options available.

Beautiful old mansion stay. Our room was large and offered a sitting area with fireplace. We were able to get a nice sit down breakfast with several options. The price seems steep to me and I wouldn't stay again as it was several blocks from King St. and I feel there are better options at the same price or less on King St. Nice once but wouldn't do again.

Truly as good as the reviews I read. Lovely, well maintained elegant property. They upgraded us to a larger room when we checked in and it was a huge suite - we felt quite royal. Bathroom is also huge and wonderful. Staff couldn't be nicer. And, the best part is the lovely people you'll meet at the social hour each evening. That's such a nice addition to any trip.
