 Radiant with 18th century elegance, the Charleston Governor’s House is a magnificent National Historic Landmark (circa 1760) reflecting Southern civility and grace. The Inn was once the home of Governor Edward Rutledge, youngest signer of the Declaration of Independence, and his wife Henrietta Middleton whose family owned Middleton Plantation. Renovated in 1998, the former Governor’s mansion has been declared "Charleston's most glamorous and sophisticated Inn" by one writer and praised as "a flawless urban hideaway" by Southern Living magazine. The Inn’s enchanting guestrooms are among the most sought after in Charleston, with king and queen 4 poster canopied beds, 12’ ceilings, private baths (some with marble showers and whirlpool tubs) and private porches. Named one of the most romantic inns in America, Governor's House is a favorite destination for honeymoons, anniversaries and special occasions. Situated in the heart of the Charleston Historic District just a few blocks "from everything," the Governor’s House is an ideal location. Guests can stroll to garden and house tours, the Battery, antique shopping, the Old Market, and fine restaurants. Better yet, the Inn is in Charleston's picturesque “South of Broad” neighborhood, with its grand historic homes and famous gardens. Gracious Southern hospitality, attention to detail and personal service are part of the Inn's heritage. Please inquire about our quiet time tariffs.
