What a beautiful property! The lobby smells wonderful, like a Disney resort for those of you who understand. The staff were exemplary! We were absolutely well taken care of. We would absolutely return! 10/10! The staff walked us up to our room and gave us a full tour, explaining everything. The patisserie was excellent as well! The hotel has complimentary umbrellas by the front door, which comes in handy for a pop up shower and some shade! The hotel was very conveniently located, within walking distance of almost everything. I only have a few things of note. First, our view was of the building next door. Nothing to see. (Room 541) Second, everything is expensive. Most cocktails in restaurants are about $16, but in the hotel most are $21. But they are very good cocktails with a very lovely environment to sit and relax. Third, parking is expensive! They charge more than Disney. Also, the pool is lovely, but it is small, accommodating only about 24 people unless you want to stand in the pool or pay extra for a very expensive cabana. Go early, before 11 to get a seat. We tried to go another time and every single seat was taken. Finally, the staff door on the fifth floor is loud, and the staff repeatedly let the door slam over and over and over, early and late.

The hotel is beautiful,, the staff was very friendly and helpful, the rooms are nicely put together. The only thing they need to improve is the linen cleaning- the towels and sheets had a smell to them as if they had been used to dry off a wet dog. Otherwise, this property is fabulous.

Exquisite Southern charm and hospitality.

We had the absolute, most wonderful and accommodating stay at Hotel Bennett during my daughter's orientation at CofC! From the moment we walked through the front door, until we checked out of our room, we were greeted and welcomed daily with the southern charm and hospitality that we love and appreciate most about the Holy City. It’s conveniently located within walking distance of several amazing restaurants and shops. Our particular room was extremely pristine, serene, and very relaxing. There was a desk conveniently placed in front of the window overlooking King Street so that my husband had a wonderful view while he worked remotely. A must if you stay- La Patisserie was such a lovely, delicious and convenient stop as we were on a tight schedule in the mornings and for lunch. I can not rave about our stay enough. It was exquisite.
