America's
Most Historic Inn
John
Rutledge, one of the fifty-five signers of the U.S.
Constitution, built his home in 1763. Now exquisitely
restored, it is one of only fifteen homes belonging to
those signers to survive- and the only one to now accommodate
overnight guests. History records that George Washington
called here in 1791; and entry in his diary shows a
breakfast with Mrs. Rutledge.
A
loving rejuvenation has restored the beautiful details
of the home's 18th and 19th century architecture: the
elaborately carved Italian marble fireplaces, the
original plaster moldings, the inlaid floors and the
graceful ironwork.
The
John Rutledge House Inn® offers nineteen guest rooms
within a complex of three buildings. One may choose
between the elegance of rooms and spacious suites in the
original grand residence or the charm and seclusion of
rooms in the Inn's two carriage houses. Antiques and
historically accurate reproductions give each room its
own warmth and distinction.
Guests
may leave cars parked on-site for their entire stay
because the best of this beautiful port city is just
beyond the doors of the John Rutledge House Inn®. The
city's finest restaurants, theatres, shops, Charleston
Place, and the Market are all within a few minutes walk.
The gracious antebellum residential area "South of
Broad" begins directly opposite the Inn.
A
stay in this elegant antebellum home offers the opportunity
to experience history as well as the warm hospitality
for which the South is justly famous..
Conde
Nast Traveler magazine ranked Charleston third on the
list of Top 10 U.S. Cities, second only to San Francisco
and New Orleans.
Travel
& Leisure magazine's readers named Charleston one of
the "Best Values in the World" and one of the
"World's Best Cities."
