    We stayed New Years Day 2011. I have been staying at Bed and Breakfasts for over 20 years and never have I met a more congenial host or hostess. The couple that run the Charles Inn are absolutely delightful. You not only feel welcome, but more like a family member or long term friend. Their hospitality greatly exeeds normal expectations. That in dditional to the exceptional breakfast served each morning, makes this a must for those travelers spending the night or weekend in historic Annapolis.

    The Inn was very peaceful, quaint & clean. The owners very attentive yet left us alone. Would definitely stay again.

    July 1-2, 2011. What a marvelous place, from the well-tended, well-loved gardens to the well appointed guest rooms and the delightful owners! We were sooo in need of a quiet place and found both quiet in the B&B and nextdoor Acton Park, relaxation on the boat taxi to dinner, and maritime energy during our walks. It must be the best combination of quiet with quick access to the heart of historic and bustling Annapolis. We're already planning our next visit.


    Great romantic getaway

    My wife and I stayed here celebrating our 34th wedding anniversary and loved it. The innkeepers are very nice and friendly, the location is fantastic and the rooms are really nice. They made our stay there very special with all the details that Paula and John make sure are taken care of. Don't hesitate to book a stay. This is the best one in Annapolis.

    This was our first B&B experience and we thoroughly enjoyed our short but sweet getaway at The Charles Inn. Paula and John immediately made us feel at home with their charm and easygoing manner. The love they have put into making the property their own is apparent. The feather bed was AMAZING and the challah french toast was the best we've ever tasted! The short walk to downtown Annapolis is enjoyable with all the historic buildings to enjoy along the way. Thank you...we'll be back!
