You will be very hard pressed to find a more beautiful or luxurious Inn to stay at.
The room my Honey and I stayed in (#2) was as if we stepped back in time.
Furniture that is as solid as the day it was made and just as Beautiful.
The room was so clean, and authentic with more towels in the bath room then I have ever seen in any motel/hotel or other Inn.
Terry and Debra (the owners) treated us as family, and as if they have known us for a long time.
They made room for my Harley to be parked in their carriage house where it would be safe and out of the weather next to their Harleys.
The Breakfast was fresh, good, and plentiful.
Terry's home made bread was off the chain, my Granny can't bake bread that good, and her bread is good.
That weekend was for my Honey's Birthday, and the King George the IV made my Honey cry with tears of joy.
When you go to Charleston you need to stay at the King George the IV.
I want to thank Debra, Terry, Ms. Debbie and the staff for a weekend get a way of a life time.
WE WILL GO BACK REAL SOON !

Spur of the moment trip to Charleston with no kids and no reservations was made memorable by my stay at the King George IV Inn. I lucked into a two-night, mid-week availability at a fantastic and I mean fantastic rate. Upon arrival, Owner Terry immediately made room for my car in his own spot in the very full rear parking lot, with a smile and while unloading the day's marketing. Miss Debbie swiftly checked me in and offered some really good dining recommendations and maps to find them. As a single female traveler, I was delighted by the very personal attention I received at the King George. Miss Debbie's recommendations were spot on. Justine's was delicious, the red rice was pretty close to my Grandmother's. As beautiful a city as Charleston is, in July one should expect high heat and humidity. Blessed relief was found in Room 4. My window unit a/c cooled both rooms very well and I made good use of my private bath! The shower had plenty of water pressure.
I enjoyed chatting with Terry and Debbie, learning about the work put into renovating this lovely B&B over the years. Family pic's are scattered about and your every need is anticipated. Shared a cheery breakfast with Terry and another guest family, got my bearings and headed over to King Street for a little early shopping. Back to the King George to drop off packages and yet another shower before wandering all over town. Tried lunch at the rooftop bar pool at the Market Pavillion Hotel for great views, wonderful breezes and substantial portions...less expensive than their downstairs Grill 225. Again, thank you Debbie! More walking, shopping and tons of photos later and I was ready to shower and chill out on my private porch with a good summer reading paperback. The honor snack bar was a saving grace on night #2 when I headed out too late for dinner. A little fridge, a TV and a comfy couch in the sitting room made me feel right at home.

Beautiful rooms, antiques, quaint. Nice porches. Great four poster beds, fireplaces. Liked having a mini fridge in the room for a bottle of wine, etc. Great location. Parking in the courtyard was a little tight.
The innkeepers had a lady by the name of Debbie working there. She was great, warm, friendly, helpful with advice on sights. She was the opposite of Terry and Deborah (the innkeepers).
Also, for 50 cents (honor system) you could get chilled bottles of spring water prior to your daily excursions. (Bottle of spring water in downtown charleston store is nearly 2 dollars!).
Drawbacks: Terry was somewhat aloof and reserved. Wife (Deborah) was practically non-existent. What little we saw of her, she was aloof, perhaps a quick hello, (minimal eyecontact) but that's about it. Don't expect any warmness from the innkeepers.
Breakfast room is nice, clean, but the "check-in" area is here too, so it is a little crowded. Plus, they have a grape decorating motif (grape vine wallpaper/fake grape vines/plastic tablecloths) which conflicted greatly with the historic, tastefully done rest of the house.
Finally, the breakfast... what can I say? On the good side, they had biscuits with gravy/sausage, which was good. Always fresh fruit. Good coffee, tea selection, cookies, etc.. Also, homemade quick breads (pineapple bread, cranberry bread, raisin bread, etc...) Occassionally scrambled eggs and grits.
On the bad side, FROZEN eggo-style waffles. Quite surprising. Frozen waffles appeared every day, with maple-flavored syrup. (No whipped cream). Frozen waffles in a b&b? For the price of this room? I could have gone to Denny's for better waffles. Also, once, the quickbread was burned (crust on top was black). One of the few times Terry talked was to tell us to cut the burnt crust off. Very surprising. They definitely need help on their breakfast; the innkeepers personality could use a little more warmness too.
