 Wentworth
Mansion
Charleston's only five diamond hotel. Built in 1886 and
designed in the second Empire style as an opulent private
residence for wealthy cotton merchant Francis Silas Rodgers,
the Wentworth Mansion is now one of the world’s finest and
most unique inns. Designed not as a lodging house, but as an
opulent private residence, it is a place of hand-carved marble
fireplaces…intricate woodwork…Tiffany stained glass
windows…and never-ending detail. The old saying is true…there’s
no place like home. While in Charleston, however, there is the
Wentworth Mansion. |
