Charleston, SC | Apr. 11 - 12
The general loveliness of Charleston only escalates during The Charleston Festival, the city’s annual run of house tours, garden show-offs, talks, walks and music across the city.
We’re heading into the last weekend of the festival, so get there if you can.
As always your stay, meal and local experience are all bookable in one click.
Home & Garden

A stately-but-chic boutique inn on Queen Street in Charleston's historic district, the Elliott House Inn puts you squarely in the middle of everything. You are steps from the waterfront, restaurants, and the very Charlestoniest parts of Charleston.
26-rooms. warm-breezed piazzas, and a cobblestoned courtyard. Just what you want it to be.

Now in its 79th year, the Charleston Festival opens the doors of the city's most extraordinary private homes, gardens, and historic landmarks. This weekend marks its final day, so better get going.
This Saturday is the Church Street Tour — a big one for the festival — beginning at 2pm, just steps from your inn. It’s a ‘self-paced walk’ down what's often called the most romantic street in America, with docents popping in to guide you through historic homes and gardens along the way.
Tickets for two to join the Church Street tour on Saturday at 2pm.
The Iron Rose is secreted inside the Mills House hotel, just around the corner from your hotel. A beautiful dining room, and a menu that goes well beyond the expected.
The smoked salmon plate and surf & turf eggs Benedict are possibly the moves.
Brunch is at 9am on Sunday, with a $90 food and drink credit. Pre-paid, just arrive.
