The Jasmine House

The location is simply exceptional. It was wonderful to be right in the thick of things, but not on a main street, so we were able to access everything, but not have the noise of main streets. We fell in love with so many things nearby and think this was one of the best vacations we've ever had. The team of Darlene and the bellman (forgetting his name now, but he's been with the Inn for 30+ years) was simply superb -- friendly, kind, and we enjoyed hearing their stories, too. We felt like locals when we got to know the bartenders on nightly visits for a cocktail at Doer Bros. and enjoyed the best drinks and advice on how to get into all of the restaurants we wanted to visit. And Charleston is a foodie city, for sure!

There was nothing we didn't like. The only downer was it was high spring with lots of pollen and it would have been great to have the exterior seating wiped down a little more often. That pine pollen is yellow!

We loved it. Great location, you are in the historic downtown area so can walk easily everywhere. Staff were wonderful- so helpful and friendly - big thank you to Carl. Our room was upstairs in the carriage house. Very comfortable, clean and with a lovely semi private veranda overlooking there lovely courtyard. The room had period furniture, bed was comfortable, plenty of storage space, refrigerator stocked with complimentary water and soft drinks. We also had a tray in the room of complimentary snacks. Nice coffee machine well stocked with different types of coffee and tea. Bathroom was spacious with a big walk in shower. WIFi was strong and there was good air conditioning. The included continental breakfast was delicious- hard boiled eggs, sweet and savoury pastries, yogurts, fresh brewed coffees, fruit and bagels etc. You could eat in the breakfast room or take the food back out to their courtyard or your room to eat. In the late afternoon a free charcuterie board with wine and beer was put out and in the evening champagne and macarons. The private courtyard was lovely, tree lined with the odd geckos and squirrels visiting. In all a delightful stay!

Absolutely nothing.

generous snacks and drinks, good coffee and delicious croissants for breakfast, great location, comfortable bed, clean facilities, generally quiet after 10 p.m., very hospitable staff, spacious bathroom. would stay here again. tip: note the message to new guests that check-in is at the Indigo Inn across the street.

Couldn't enjoy the outdoor areas due to bug bites, not sure if the inn could help with that. the door to the carriage house gets stuck and is hard to open. can hear other guests on higher floors.

The house is absolutely beautiful & the courtyard is very nice (we didn't get to really enjoy it though because it was a little chilly most of our stay). It was very conveniently located, we walked everywhere we went downtown & the tours we took were within a 1 or 2 minute walk. The only time we drove was when we went out to see a plantation. The complimentary wine, champagne, beer & snacks in the evenings was a nice touch. The keurig coffee machine in our room was a nice surprise, complimentary snacks in the room & we did have a mini fridge with complimentary water & soda; didn't expect that. I was expecting to park across the street at a public parking lot & was worried about paying more than once a day on the day we drove somewhere, but we were able to park at the Indigo Inn ($20 a day) & could come & go as many times as we wanted, so that was a relief.

These aren't necessarily bad things or dislikes, just little things..... check in is at The Indigo Inn across the street, Jasmine House doesn't have a front desk or lobby; not a big deal at all though. There's no indoor eating option for breakfast, afternoon wine & cheese, or evening champagne & macaroons. We took ours back to our room, which was just fine. We could have ate on the front porch or courtyard if it had been warmer. There is a lounge in the basement level that could have been used also, but you have to go outside & acces a door & stairs to get to it, it was easier just go back to our room. Breakfast was very simple, no eggs, bacon, waffles, etc. but it was nice.

We loved this place. The room was perfectly warm and cozy, it was 39 degrees at the end of December when we visited. Our room was on the first floor with access to the beautiful courtyard. We had drinks and desserts in the room free of charge. Every afternoon they would have wine, mimosas, desserts, one bite sandwiches in the lobby of the house for the guest to enjoy. The hotel was within walking distance of all the sights. They have parking for $20 a day, very conveniently located across the street.

The authentic Charleston feel of the house is amazing. makes the whole trip feel more authentic. The included breakfast, wine and cheese hour, and sherry and macaroon hour were all such nice touches that we enjoyed each morning and evening. The room was well AC’ed and the water was better than expected. The private courtyard was so nice and peaceful.

It is an old house and what comes with that is old building. That being said, there are minor cosmetic issues, but all adds to the authenticity of the house. It also allows a lot of sound in from the streets and from neighbors in the other rooms of the house.

I loved this charming period house located in a central position. It was comfortably furnished with unique furnishing which I prefer to the usual generic hotel. The breakfast was plentiful and the pre dinner snacks served with wine were perfect. Generous assortment of complimentary snacks and non alcoholic beverages in room too. All very nicely presented.

I travelled with my Mum and my room was furnished to a higher standard than her room making me wonder whether all rooms were equal.

Free soft drinks in the mini bar and complimentary wine and cheese in the afternoon.

Breakfast was grab and go. Luckily the weather was good so we were able to carry our breakfast into the courtyard to eat otherwise it would have involved going up and down two flights of stairs. Breakfast the first morning was very poor, dry bagel and jam/cheese. The second morning pastries were available which was better. No dedicated parking for the Jasmine House so we had to park in Hotel Indigo and drag our luggage across the parking lot and across the street.

The Jasmine House is one of my favorite places to stay in Charleston! It had been a while since I have been there, and the property has made some many improvements. The staff was especially polite and accomodating. I really apprecaite the little touches like the snacks and exceptional service. And I like a little privacy when traveling, so the layout of the peroperty does that well. I prefer staying at a place with character and charm, which the Jasmine Inn definitely does!

The garden and fountain in front of the Carriage house. It was peaceful and great music was played softly. The location allowed us to walk everywhere. We didnt use our car after we checked in. The happy hour and late night champagne and macaroons was very nice. All the staff were very nice. The refrigerator was stocked with drinks and a selection of local snacks was provided.

Its really hard to identlfy a negative.
