We loved our stay at the inn and would definitely go back! The location was 10/10, they offered us check in hours early, the staff were friendly and the breakfast every morning is amazing!

We were more than happy with $16 per day parking as the lot next door is way more and although the room was a little dated and lighting a bit dark, we knew that when booking from the photos and think the rest of the place more than makes up for it!

Barksdale House Inn is a charming property and we found the staff to be helpful & friendly. While we did have to move rooms during our stay due to the ac not working in the original room we were assigned, they were quick to find a resolution & moved us to a nicer and more updated room.

They did serve a made to order complimentary breakfast in the morning and it was delicious, but portions were small. On site parking was $16/ day, but we had no trouble each day finding close parking.

Pros: Complimentary breakfast & friendly, helpful staff

Negatives: There was construction going on during our stay right outside of our window, & though that is of no fault of the properties, it did wake us up very early each morning that we stayed there.

Cute inn with a wonderful breakfast. Best cheese grits I’ve had. Loved having cold water, ice, coffee and snacks all day. Well maintained for being built in the 1790’s. Short walk to kings street and the city market. Staying here made the trip even more historic and special.

Its such a cute inn. Great complimentary breakfast. Staff friendly & helpful. We stayed in the back couch house, big room, great bed. The only slight negative was the bathrooms a bit old, cracked tiles so looks unsightly but it was clean so not a bad enough reason to not stay. Very good location close to King Street.

We loved everything about the property. The staff were friendly and helpful. They went beyond what we expected. On our way home, my husband discovered he didn’t have his wedding ring, and didn’t remember exactly what he did with it. We called the Barksdale and the woman at the desk said she would check our room for us. We had stopped at a rest area and my husband found it in his shaving kit. We were very relieved. We left a message and received a call a few minutes later. She was very happy we found it, and wished us safe travels. Next time we are in the area, the Barksdale can be sure we will stay there. Thanks for everything!

I booked my stay here because I was looking forward to experiencing the beauty of a historical hotel. Much was missing to complete the charm that the hotel could have had. Im not an interior decorator, but a few cans of paint and repairs/carpet cleaning wouldve made a huge impact. Pillows, authenic prints and attention to details would help. Sorry - but paying $350 a night didnt support what I got. :(

Wonderful stay at the Barksdale House! We had a very quiet and restful stay with our small dog:). The room and bathroom was spacious and comfortable-we stayed in the standard king. The breakfast was included and made to order-grits, eggs, bacon, sausage, Belgium waffles-all delicious-we couldn’t believe it was no extra charge. Coffee, tea, water and snacks were available 24/7. There was a Keurig machine right outside our bedroom door which was much appreciated first thing in the morning as we were in the third floor:). Highly recommend!

Barksdale House in was fantastic. We loved the charm of this house! The staff were friendly and very welcoming. Our room was very clean and cozy. The breakfast was delicious! I do wish the bed was not quite as high or had some steps by the bed. I'm 5'2\" and it was difficult to get in, but that's just from a short girl like me. I would choose Barksdale over and over again.

The location is good. The staff was friendly. The included breakfast was good. The availability of coffee and teas was a pleasant commodity. The room that we had was very dated. The bed and HVAC were comfortable. However the seating accommodation was pretty dated. Two wooden chairs and a corner table were there if we didn't sit on the bed. The bathroom was small and poorly lit. Definitely not a room to spend an evening at the location. It was fine for sleeping and getting ready in the morning.

This was our third time staying here. We brought our dog with us on this trip and were disappointed in the way we were treated based on having her with us. We would not call this a dog friendly inn but rather a dog tolerant inn. There are several rules you have to be aware of when bringing your dog that are not disclosed beforehand. You have to enter and exit from the front and walk around the building and only eat on the patio during the breakfast hours if your dog is with you. Dogs are not allowed on any of the furniture, including the bed. We were put in one of the front rooms on the main floor. The room is big and spacious with comfortable seating. The bed was not very comfortable. There were stains on the rug and on the bench at the foot of the bed. The main issue with this room is you can hear everything, from road noise to guests and employees at all hours of night and day. We were woken up multiple times throughout the night from road noise and early in the morning from guests and employees. We spent one afternoon in the room to give our dog time to rest and the employees were very loud. I would not recommend staying in either of the first floor rooms. Overall, we would not return with our dog and there aren't enough amenities to warrant staying by ourselves.

A hidden gem in Charleston

Our stay was amazing. Located right between Meeting Street and King Street - close to shops, restaurants and Charleston sites and attractions.

The house is very rustic amd wonderfully decorated. Our room was clean and spacious.

The staff were very friendly and their breakfast menu (being \"continental\" and all) was amazing. I wouldnt call it a continental breakfast at all as you could get anything from grits to belgian waffles, including avacado toast.

We would definitely stay at Barksdale again.

A little different from most bed and breakfast inns we’ve stayed at in the past. The facility is primarily beds and baths, more like a hotel. Common areas, of which there are several, are for dining. One is outdoors in a lovely courtyard.

We didn’t meet the owners, just staff members who were running the place.

Room was great. Breakfast was good, too. Guests order from a menu so there are a variety of choices.

Only negative was being charged to park in the facility’s parking area each night of our stay. Seems that could easily be a free courtesy to guests.

Very good location, close to College of Charleston, King shopping street, city market and many restaurants. Walkable distance to many attractions. Service is great, all the staff there are super friendly and welcoming. Order to cook breakfast and afternoon tea time is a highlight. Will definitely recommend to friends and come back again.

Great place to stay.

Our three night stay in the Barksdale House Inn was an enjoyable experience as much for the staff as the Inn itself. Nothing was too much trouble and the included afternoon tea with a glass of wine was much appreciated. The Inn is in an enviable location for all that Charleston has to offer.

We had a wonderful stay at the Barksdale! The staff was so nice and we really enjoyed the breakfast and snacks. The only downside was how damp the property felt. The dampness made the room smell.

Charming with Amazing location

Such a charming place to stay in the historic Charleston district. So close to the tour locations and water for the sunset cruise.
Amazing friendly staff and the breakfast was AMAZING! Such a wonderful place.
No elevator, so you need to carry your luggage up the stairways.

If you’re looking for something posh or up to date, this is not the place for you. It would be a great property with some TLC. Peeling wallpaper, water stains on ceiling and being able to hear everything in the house made the stay less enjoyable.

Cutest Bed and Breakfast

Southern hospitality at its finest. I have been to Charleston several times and never knew this house was here. This was by far the nicest bunch of ladies who went of there way to make sure everyone is comfortable.

Best stay in Charleston

I will recommend this charming Inn to anyone visiting Charleston,. It is at the center of the main streets and walkable to all points of interest. The staff are exceptional. There is a tea time each day with beverages, snack, and wine. Each morning a delicious breakfast is served.
It is refreshing to stay at a place in which the parking and breakfast are included.
