This quintessential Charleston lodging radiates 18th-century elegance. Its stately architecture typifies the grandeur, romance, and civility of the city's bountiful colonial era. A National Historic Landmark, it is filled with family antiques and period reproductions in the public rooms and the high-ceiling guest rooms. The best room is the Rutledge Suite, a legacy to the original owner, Governor Edward Rutledge. Nice touches include a proper afternoon tea.
