The Inn At Middleton Place - Charleston

This guest did not leave a comment.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Grounds are gorgeous, azaleas were in bloom, sun was shining, spring, not hot. Absolutely enjoyed the grounds. My husband thought the rooms were designed in Danish style, minimalistic, a bit odd for americans. I thought it was in line with slave quarters but upgraded, spacious. Bed was smaller than you'd expect, not king size, hard thin mattress. TV […] was a super old small square box. They have a very nice free happy hour, wine and snacks. We enjoyed the stay very much.

Always a wonderful weekend escape! Rooms are rustic but in a good way. Love the river view rooms the best. Friendly staff!!!

Wonderful inn located on the grounds of Middleton Place, a former plantation. I loved the quiet setting and the gardens at Middleton Place. Rooms have fireplaces which we used on a couple of cold nights. There is plenty to do on the grounds (kayaking, horseback riding, swimming) and it is close to Magnolia Gardens and Drayton Hall. A quick trip to Charleston […] - 20 - 30 minutes or so. Read more

This is the second time in 2012 we have stayed at the Inn for vacation. This time longer than the last since we enjoyed it so much. While the hotel is showing some age the overall condition is good and the rooms are generally very clean and comfortable. Staff are very friendly and accommodating. The complimentary afternoon wine and morning breakfast […] are great additions. Some may complain the free breakfast does not include enough food choices but we continue to find is just fine. The free Middleton Plantation entry is a great bonus and the location to Charleston makes it a convenient ride. The in-room fireplace was great on the chilly evenings and the free firewood makes it easy to use. The only thing to request as a change would be to replace the old 19 inch TV with a 32 inch flat-screen. But since watching TV is not a big part of this trip for us, in fact never used it in 5 days, it does not detract from the stay. We will be back again at the Inn during the summer and winter of 2013.

We loved the stay, it was clean condition and the activity were excelent. There are two thing which need to be address the tv, it was small probably a 20' and not a flat screen, also there are hardly any channels. We hardly spent time in the room with so much things to do, but it eould have been nice to have more options.

I loved this hotel. When we arrived, a guest reception was taking place and my husband and I were able to enjoy some wine and cheese. The staff was absolutely wonderful. Everyone was friendly and helpful. The bed was not as comfortable as I had hoped for, but it was well worth the stay. The next morning, we simply walked to the Middleton Plantation […] and enjoyed the beautiful grounds. This was a great start to our vacation in the Charleston area. Read more

Two words: Southern Charm. I didn't have to stay in the historic district to experience the glory of Southern Charm and hospitality in South Carolina. I appreciated all they had to offer from the hammocks, to the sunsets on the Ashley River, to the staff, to the wine and food receptions in the evening, to the ease of walking to Middleton Place Plantation […] for an afternoon stroll. I would come back to this property time and again. Once of the best hotels I've stayed in state-side. Read more

I booked a standard River View room but upon arrival found that we had been upgraded at no additional cost. The suite we were given was fabulous and was furnished with 2 sofas, a 50+ inch big screen tv, two sided fire place. The balcony wrapped around 3 sides of the room and access was provided through 4 sets of french doors. The bathroom included a […] large tub for two and a walk in shower. This suite was unbelieveable and we had a wonderful time. Read more

A beautiful place with a lovely staff. The architecture was very unique, unlike a traditional "inn". The units blended well into the surrounding nature with ivy along the exterior walls. The ;ocation overlooking the Ashley River was beautiful. it was clean and staff was very friendly!

We stayed at the Inn for a belated honeymoon and vacation. The location is great as it is set back into the woods and away from daily noise. Placed along the Ashley River the view is terrific. The ladies serving afternoon wine as well as those at the morning breakfast were pleasant and enjoyable. As for the breakfast there is plenty of food available […] on the free breakfast menu. The room was clean, spacious and rustic. If you do not like a rustic room thus might not be your place but we loved it. The only suggestion we have is to upgrade the TVs to flat panel and include more cable stations. We are looking forward to going back for our vacation this December and using the in room fireplace.

My husband and I had a wonderful time. The gardens were beautiful but the Inn, I would say is not really somewhere for children.

A place that could be lovely again, but it has aged. The floors need to be redone, and it rained, so we had to deal with sand and mud.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Excellent, intend to go back.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Had a wonderful stay. Great evening wine/ beer and cheeses. Only a short walk to Middleton Place. We were fortunate in that the azaleas there are at their peak and are spectacular. Only caveat is our lower-level room was accessed by steep concrete steps. Could be a problem for some folks. Must be careful and be sure to keep hold of railing!

We had the most incredible time at Middleton Place. The room looked just as it did in the pictures and the view of the courtyard was so pretty. I don't think any of the rooms had a bad view from what I saw. The Inn was so unique, I'd never been anyplace with a room setup quite like it. Walking around the grounds it felt like I was at a retreat with […] quiet places and hammocks all around. The walk from our room at the Inn to Middleton Place took less than 5 minutes and we spent 2 hours doing the self-guided tour which was incredible. We walked to dinner which took about 15 minutes but it was so serene to be walking by the lake with no one else around. My husband is a chef and graduated from the CIA, he always has constructive criticism no matter what restaurant we go to and he couldn't think of any way he could have made our meals better. I highly suggest getting a reservation and driving over (the walk was a bit long). Our favorite parts of the trip were the fireplace, the large tub and the alligators! We got to see two of them near the butterfly lakes. They didn't budge as we got near to snap a few pictures. They seem quite used to having people around. Oh and the gardens at Middleton Place were gorgeous. All in all a wonderful place to stay for the day. Read more

Amazing bath tub! Fireplace was great too. The rooms are very rustic and intimate. Great gardens on the property... Free tickets with stay. Well worth a walk through.

The hotel is ok - the beds were confortable - the fireplace in the room was awesome, but the best part about this hotel is being able to wake up and walk the beautiful grounds of Middleton Place. It's a wonderful place to get away for the weekend and very romantic. The rooms are not all that cozy but they are clean and have everything one needs. Bathtub […] is HUGE - actually too huge - but we enjoyed it nonetheless. I would recommend staying here for sure and would stay here again. Read more

My wife and I spent the weekend here and had a wonderful time. Our room faced the woods and the Ashley River. The view was magnificent. The windows had shutters on them, so during the day we could open them for the view, and at night we could close them for privacy. We enjoyed the fireplace in the room. There was ample dry split wood outside on a covered […] rack. The fire made the room feel really cozy. In the evening there is a gathering in the Lodge for complimentary snacks and drinks. Also the complimentary breakfast in the morning was very good with homemade breads (six different kinds), hot oatmeal, fresh fruit, home made yogurt, home made granola, and cold cereals, plus juices, coffee, etc. We also enjoyed strolling through the gardens and touring the plantation house next door at Middleton Place, all included in the price of the stay. This a great place for a weekend stay when you just want to get away from the rat race of everyday life. We loved it! Read more

A step back in time. Refreshing elegance without being overdone. Live only 5 miles from Middleton and never went but will go back again and again..as long as I stay at the Inn. The staff was wonderful and the wine reception was better than expected. Highly recommend to any who want to relax in the beauty of nature.

Loved it!

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Our main issue with the hotel was the fact that the website description and pictures didn't mention the fact that the area is VERY rustic with dirt roads and sandy parking lots. We were advised in the literature to not feed the animals, which included gators. The area is near the river and we had a beautiful view from our room, but we were in the wild. […] The issue was not that the surroundings were rustic, but that this was not stressed in the information provided. The images on the site are very strategic, modern, stressing the European design. Next, the restaurant was not close to the rooms and you could not park near it. You had to walk a good quarter to a half mile (depending on if you cut through the grassy area where the animals roam) to reach it. After the trek, the food at lunch was mediocre. The breakfast was limited and quite bad for SC where standards are high. There are so many wonderful SC restaurants at all price ranges. There is no excuse for fake eggs, re-toasted/heated biscuits and sausage, and stale granola cereal. As far as the room, we had a good sized room with a 20" tv and large bath. The room was ok, but don't expect the luxury shown on the website. We will not return because we are not rustic ourdoorsy folks. Read more

For the price of this room, I would suggest looking elsewhere. We arrived to a room temperature of 97% because the thermostat in the room was wired incorrectly. The windows were stuck and very hard to open. The bed was very small and not very comfortable. The tiles in the bathroom didn't look very clean and there was black mold in the corners of the […] room. The staff was very friendly and the hotel does offer a meet & greet with free beer, wine, & snacks in the lodge area. This hotel is very convenient to the gardens and it was really quiet. Overall not a total disappointment but I would not recommend this hotel to my friends because I didn't think it was nice enough for the price. Read more

The view of the Ashley River was worth the price! All of the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The room had a lot of luxury items which made the stay that more special. The buildings were a bit dated but I will stay there again.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

It was beautiful and quiet.

Genuine Expedia guest review

This is the perfect place for a nice romantic weekend getaway. The privacy of the property of the distance from the city allow for the conveniences of the city, because it is so close, and the appeal of an intimate resort.

We checked in around 9PM only to be sent to a room with a broken air-conditioner. We were transferred to another room (again second floor with very difficult to climb concrete stairs (no elevator). Within minutes, we realized that the a/c in this room was operating well below par. We were told by the receptionist that there were no other options available. […] So, we slept hot that night with the promise that the a/c would be restored the next morning. Our second night went fine but on the afternoon of the third day, it became necessary for maintenance to recharge the a/c one final time. Both rooms were sorely in need of updating and repair. Many of the wooden shutters were broken. The oversized tiled tub would not drain properly while showering and the shower/tub fill valve was in need of repair (or replacement). All fixtures were dated and barely functional. The bathroom interior walls were painted rough concrete. The continental breakfast was adequate and fresh and the service was good. The restaurant is a bit pricey for what you get but is located in a beautiful setting. The afternoon wine/beer and hors d'oeuvres were nice but on the third evening, the event was unexpectedly cut short with no reason given other than the host simply left an hour early and didn't return. At this point, you are probably thinking....Well, outside of that Mrs. Lincoln, how'd you like the play! The grounds of the Middleton plantation were beautiful anf peaceful. The location is close to Drayton Hall, Magnolia Plantation and many other historical venues. The staff we found to be very friendly and as helpful as they could be given what they could control. Maintenance levels and updating budgets are not their responsibility. The owners need to step-up if The Middleton Inn aspires to a rating above two to three stars Read more

My daughter and I decided at the spur of the moment to take a girl's weekend trip. I booked a room the night before we left. Got a little lost because the Inn is out of town and it was dark, but called the front desk at the Inn and was directed straight there. All the staff were helpful and courteous, great view from the room, the Ashley River could […] be seen between the Inn and the Gardens, was impressed with the room itself, had q-tips, cotton balls, herbal lotion and bath salts available in the bathroom. The bed linen smelled of lavender. Quiet, serene and romantic for just married couples. The Middleton Garden tour was informative and beautiful. Restaurant was pricey, food was great and you could walk down a trail around the river to the restaurant that was lit up by solar lanterns. Just wish they had some type of transportation back to the Inn after eating if you walked there. Overall very satisfied with our stay and would recommend everyone to stay there Read more

Signed up for Expedia package which stated hotel had a full breakfast and some type of indication that it was healthy. Everyday of the stay was the same breakfast - muffins, juice, whole fruit, coffee, tea and oatmeal with too much salt and butter added. Airline delay caused us to arrive a day late and stay an extra day -- we were charged more than […] the agreed pkg. rate for the extra day. Hotel is extremely far from Charleston attractions and the road to it seems very dangerous - hard to see signs in the dark and each time, some one was tailgating us at 55 mph when we needed to turn in. STAFF AND THE PLANTATION TOUR WERE THE HIGH POINTS. My advice would be to only stay here one night or 2 max. to see the plantation and spend the rest of your time exploring the beach areas and downtown. Read more
