A very lovely experience!! The staff was so courteous and helpful and super friendly! The Carriage House rooms were very comfortable and the breakfasts were very tasty. The first come, first serve parking out on the street worked out just fine as well. The B&B is absolutely beautiful inside and out. Be sure to get the personal tour from a staff member and read up on the history. Also make sure to go to the 4th floor to see the views!

Staying at this beautiful, historic house felt like we were staying in a place all to ourselves. The bedroom was huge and comfortable. Staff was very friendly, with great communication about check in. Staff also gave a tour of the historic house. The complimentary breakfast each morning was delicious and served in the beautiful dining room. If you want a historic experience, definitely stay here!

We travel 5 to 6 months per year. THIS IS A VERY UNIQUE B &B in the heart of old town Charleston. IT IS THE ONLY tourist B&B ,actually the only tourist accommodation ON BATTERY St facing the harbor and fort Sumter. It offers huge accommodations. dating back to 1840 s. In our room there was a print of a painting dating back to 1851 and this house is on it! They have a deliver breakfast TO YOU'RE ROOM!!!!!!!!,,,, There is a Hugh fully stocked pantry. It is very secure and the staff is excellent. Don't miss it. P S I have No vested interest in this business.

I would go to Charleston just to stay at 20 South Battery! Steeped in history, charming and luxurious. We could not have stayed at a more magical place. Meticulous grounds and wonderful amenities! No corners were cut. The staff were exceptional too.

This is the 3rs time my wife and I have stayed here. The location is great and the feel is definitely old Charleston. Abigale and her staff always make us feel welcome and like we’re part of the family. Don’t miss 5pm charcuterie and wine (BYOB) on the front porch!!
