Planters Inn

Frommer's Review

For many years, this distinguished brick-sided inn next to the City Market was left to languish. In the 1990s, a multimillion-dollar renovation transformed the place into a cozy but tasteful and opulent enclave of Colonial charm, turning it into one of the finest small luxury hotels of the South. The inn has a lobby filled with reproductions of 18th-century furniture and engravings, a staff clad in silk vests, and a parking area with exactly the right number of spaces for the number of rooms in the hotel. The spacious guest rooms have hardwood floors, marble bathrooms, and 18th-century decor (the work of award-winning decorators). The suites are appealing, outfitted very much like rooms in an upscale private home. Afternoon tea is served in the lobby, and a well-recommended restaurant: the Peninsula Grill.
