Old Town Bluffton Inn

At the first and only hotel in Old Town, stately palmettos sway in the salt air, French doors open onto brick porches and breezy balconies, and haint blue ceilings and heirloom furnishings capture a story of true Southern hospitality told in an all-new building. Elegant yet unpretentious, the Old Town Bluffton Inn is a modern Lowcountry home for those who like their tea sweet and their oysters local - preferably plucked straight from the May River.

"Sweetest little hotel. We loved this little hotel. It’s the epitome of southern charm. Not a B&B (which we don’t do) but has a certain personal and welcoming feel. And it’s new, very clean, nicely decorated and in a great location, walkable to restaurants and shopping. Will definitely be back."

"Staying here is an amazing. experience. The rooms are beautifully decorated, the bed is comfortable and the towels are plush. A pantry (no charge) is filled with fresh baked cookies, snacks and beverages and breakfast is a treat with homemade quiche and croissant sandwiches. We will be back!"

“Coming to the Bluffton Inn is like being welcomed to a fine southern home. The staff treats you with warm and welcoming hospitality. The lobby is inviting and the front porch a wonderful place to take in the feel of an old southern town with contemporary amenities. I will definitely return frequently.”

When I walked in feeling kind of foolish for even trying to book on the same day notice you came through with a beautiful room ready for us in just a few short hours! You went out of your way to accommodate us last minute. Your team is amazing, all so friendly. Hindsight is always just that and I should have just reserved a room at the Inn, to begin with. Our stay is always pleasant, our room very comfy, clean, well-appointed, treats galore and of course the Inn located in a great location. We will see you again soon!

“We love staying here. In addition to being a beautiful hotel within walking distance of downtown, we cherish the friendships we have formed with the owners and staff. We are building a home in the area and, each time we visit, they offer recommendations. They are super-helpful and genuinely enjoy connecting with guests.”

My husband and I just want to thank you and your staff for the wonderful stay we experienced at The Bluffton Inn last week. We arrived on Friday, Feb. 11 from New York. This was our first time ever to Bluffton, S.C. and we could not have chosen a better place to stay. Your staff made us feel so welcome from the moment we arrived until the moment we, unfortunately, had to leave. (...) We already miss Bluffton and look forward to returning to The Bluffton Inn sometime in the future.

"Great weekend retreat! The Inn is relatively new but has an old time charm. Our room was very comfortable. Its location is in the heart of Old Town, so we took a lovely walk and visited some cute shops. Danielle, the owner, was friendly and so helpful. Every morning we had fresh eggs and blueberry crumb cakes."
