Pros: What a lovely property and an even lovelier host! On a nice quiet side-streak, only a few blocks away from all of the sights and tastes of Charleston. Our host hot only served as a wonderful guide as to where to go, what to see and what to eat, but provided us with three amazing southern breakfasts to get each day started right. Highly recommended!!!

Pros: Vaughan and staff were fantastic! This property is a gem, and I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. I felt like I was staying at a relatives house. The breakfast was exceptional. Morning one was sweet potato pecan pancakes with blueberries and powder sugar with a side of bacon. Morning two was scrambled eggs with scallions, fried ham, cinnamon baked apples, and cinnamon toast. I will be book again!

Pros: I absolutely loved staying here! The room was charming and the bed was the most comfortable I've ever slept in. The bathroom was just luxurious, with a wonderful soaking tub. The hostess made me feel like a part of her own family, welcoming me back after I'd been out each day and offering to loan me an umbrella and sweater on a cold, windy day in the city. She even went so far as to drive me to my business event one evening after touring me around the city earlier that day. She's a delightful conversationalist too, and each morning she cooked me a sumptuous breakfast that kept me full until nearly dinnertime. 22 Charlotte is definitely the best place to stay in Charleston.

Cons: We felt fortunate to be in the main house. They have two buildings, not sure what the other one was like; seemed a little less convenient. We were on the third floor, which was quite. However, you had to climb 34 steps to get there. Not a problem for us, but getting the bags up there was a workout.

Cons: The curtains to the living area of my room were sheer and I would have preferred to not feel like I could be seen from the veranda. There were no blinds to close, so no way to fix the visibility issue. Parking was also much further away than I anticipated.

Look carefully among the gracious Georgian, Federal, Greek Revival, Second Empire and Queen Anne style homes of historic Charleston, SC and you'll discover The Elliott House Inn. Historic Charlestons favorite Bed and Breakfast Inn is, like Charleston itself, an elegant survivor of a tempestuous past. Built as a private residence in 1861, this remarkably preserved architectural treasure has weathered hurricanes, earthquakes, as well as the Civil War. Meticulously restored, and centrally located in the heart of Charleston, SCs captivating historic district, The Elliott House Inn is within walking distance to the famous market area, art galleries, boutique and antique shopping, and of course Charlestons world renowned dining.
