Description

Ansonborough Inn is located within the historic district of downtown Charleston. Near the market area you can walk to the finest restaurants shopping and entertainment the Holy City has to offer. Ansonborough Inn resides on property that was named after Lord Anson of England who while on assignment to protect Charleston from pirates won the property in a spirited poker game. Originally a three-story stationer's warehouse (circa 1901) the building was designed for individual condominium units. As a result our suites are large and range from 450 to 750 sq ft. Following that renovation Ansonborough Inn has been transformed into a charming all-suite inn rivaling any in the South. Our majestic atrium welcomes you with exposed heart pine beams and local fire red brick. These elements were commonly used during the period and are incorporated in the decor throughout the inn. Each room has data ports for internet access dual phone lines and voice mail. The guest business center is also available 24/7 with our compliments. We are a non-smoking and pet free establishment. A delightful continental breakfast is served each morning in the Centurion Room. Each afternoon enjoy our wine and cheese social with our own home made pimento cheese dip. Welcome. Come experience true Southern Hospitality.

    Great place

    Ansonborough Inn is the best place to stay in Charleston with your dog! They treated our Harper like royalty. It was a great experience! Will definitely stay there again with our dog!

    Great stay

    Great location to explore the beautiful historic district of Charleston on foot. Staff welcomed our dog with treat bag and list of pet friendly places. Wine and cheese hour was great after a long day of driving. Beautiful room. Easy parking, and we could stay parked there during the day of checkout. Pet fee reasonable in comparison to other hotels in the historic district.

    Very dog friendly

    Everyone was happy to see our dog. The room was great & our dog was welcome to join us at breakfast and the wine and cheese hour. The location was good for us but there were few places near the hotel for dog relief.

    We all loved it!

    Location is great for walking around Charleston and even though they are currently doing lobby construction, we found the hotel to be perfectly welcoming for us and our dog! Finn at the front desk gave excellent restaurant recommendations both nights we stayed there and it was exactly as described as opposed to so many places that seem to overpromise! We couldn’t have enjoyed our stay in Charleston more and would def go back if/when we swing through Charleston again!

    Really nice room and service desk and great location. Did not feel like it was a step down to travel with my dog. Much appreciated. Can’t wait to stay there again.

    Great Dog Hospitality

    Great place to stay within walking distance of restaurants and waterfront park. Wonderful reception and greeting for my dog. Even a dog care package with portable water bowl when we arrived. Loved the dog portraits posted throughout the property and the rooftop deck had amazing sunset views. Would definitely come back!
