    culinary excellence
    complimentary breakfast
    friendly service
    drafty room
    steep stairs

    Diving into the culinary scene, Circa 1886 was a standout with flavors that dance on your palate. Every bite felt like a celebration of local ingredients! The complimentary breakfast was a divine kickstart to the day. Plus, the friendly staff made everything feel like home away from home!

    Now, the room was a tad drafty and took a minute to warm up, and the bathroom felt like a hidden attic with its tall ceilings. But honestly, who cares? The charm and comfort of Wentworth still made it a memorable stay.

    cozy common areas
    complimentary cocktails
    delicious breakfast
    steep stairs
    drafty room

    This place truly made our stay feel special. The complimentary cocktails and delicious free breakfast were highlights, and we loved the cozy common areas, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring nearby attractions like the Charleston Museum and Rainbow Row. While the bathroom was a bit tricky to access with steep stairs, the overall charm and attention to detail, like having chocolates on our pillows, made up for it. I’m looking forward to another visit.

    stunning ambiance

    Highly recommend for couples seeking romance

    The staff treated us like family, especially when Kenneth greeted us with flowers in our room. And the private intimate breakfast setting was so beautiful it felt like a scene from a movie.

    It was a bit on the pricey side but I have no regrets.

    dog-friendly accommodations
    delicious breakfasts
    barking disruption
    navigation difficulty
    secluded room location

    The stay was exceptional, especially with the dog-friendly accommodations, including a room near an outside door for convenience. Mornings were a delight on the patio, enjoying delicious breakfasts, including homemade ice cream. However, the occasional barking from our pet could be slightly disruptive at times, and the off-the-beaten-path room location occasionally made it hard to navigate from the main areas.
