    We recently had the opportunity to visit Two Meeting Street for our anniversary. It was a most delightful experience! We are big B&B fans and this staff was the most knowledgeable and courteous we have ever encountered. We almost felt guilty letting them take such good care of us. We actually over scheduled ourselves and didn't allow enough time to drink in the beauty and charm of this rare gem. We would highly recommend a stay and this lovely, historical B&B. You will not be disappointed. Do take a sail boat tour if time allows.

    On steeping foot on the property, it was apparant that our stay would be full of old time charm, without being stuffy. The staff was exquisate in asking and being able to supply us with things to do , how to get to different place on time, use of different methods of transportation, making sure our earlier than normal departure was orderly and packed a road trip lunch so we could meet our deadlines and included a "to go" breakfast and coffee. Housekeeping staff outstanding, rooms unbelievably clean

    From the first moment we arrived, we were greeted with a smile and an ice cold glass of peach iced tea (which was very welcomed after a long drive in 100 degree weather!). The staff is extremely attentive and helpful. Each morning breakfast was delicious and beautiful to look at. Every afternoon they served Southern recipes for dips and desserts with more of my favorite Peach Iced Tea and we were able to enjoy these goodies on the large porch. The Blue Room was cozy and comfortable. Everything was extremely clean and the location was perfect. It was far enough away from the busier part of Charleston, but not too far to walk. We feel very lucky to have found this gem for our 3-day trip.


    just beautiful
