Bijou, Boutique Inn 19 Pinckney Street, Charleston, SC 29401

"Spent a few days in Charleston staying at the Bijou was wonderful. Great location comfortable rooms. 5 star experience."

"This was the cutest, most quaint little inn! The magnolia room was adorable with multiple fans (important for us, as hot sleepers). We were only in town for one night but would 100% stay here again. We enjoyed coffee & danishes provided this morning and took a walk to see the carriage horses next door."

"I found this place on line looking on Air B&B and VRBO. It looked charming but pictures can be deceiving. The availability was very limited. When I went to their website I found more open dates and could see pictures of the room. The prices were very reasonable. When I realized the Inn was down in the historic district I was even more pleased at the prices. On arrival the Inn was easy to locate and there was ample parking across the street. We checked in without any problems and were shown to our room. We stayed in the Magnolia which is on the first floor and facing the street. I was a little concerned about noise but amazingly our room was very quiet. It was August which can be oppressive in Charleston. Our AC worked very well and was quiet also. We had a king bed which was very comfortable and the sheets were incredibly soft. There is an old fireplace which really elevates the ambiance of the room. The bathroom of course is small but there is enough space for all my things. The shower works well and there is a jetted tub which actually worked and after a day of walking and biking it was very luxurious to soak in the tub with the jets on. This place is so clean! We had fresh cold water in the room on arrival which was changed out daily. The towels are large and thick, no skimpy thread bare things you find at other places. The location is the greatest selling point. Park your car and walk everywhere, the Inn is just blocks from all of downtown Charleston’s amenities: fine dining, shopping, galleries, rooftop bars, jazz. Yes the Inn is old built in 1860 so the high end creature comforts are just not possible given the restrictive codes. If you want that pay $500 a night for some fancy high end hotel built in the last 10 years. For me I love how the owner has preserved the historic charm without sacrificing comfort. I almost don’t want to post this review as the Bijou is truly a hidden gem, I would hate that it became so popular I wouldn’t be able to book a return visit."

"Tammy and Ashley are the best inn keepers. Very accommodating, the rooms are charming, the location is perfect if you want to explore old Charleston. The Inn was built in 1860.... it's amazing that it's still standing and in such great repair. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and weekend."

"This place was great! This place was less expensive than a lot of other places but has good quality. We spent a day in Charleston and stayed here. It was right downtown. It is a good place. The themed rooms is a cool idea. The house is older which makes you get a feel for the city and its vibes. The snacks/breakfast was good and available anytime, which was nice. It was close to some horse stalls but it wasn't very smelly. If you plan on arriving after 4pm, you'll have to email the owner so that she can give you the key. I'd come here again."
