The southern United States is full of charming towns, hospitable people, and delicious restaurants. Discerning travelers exploring the region will love its boutique hotels, which are pervasive. Below, we’ve rounded up three boutique hotels that exude Southern charm👇
1️⃣ Located in the heart of Charleston, South Carolina, 86 Cannon Street (@86cannonst) was constructed in 1862. Carefully renovated throughout the years, the residence-turned-hotel is an equilibrium between heightened Southern style and mid-century modern design. 86 Cannon Street boasts a quintessential southern charm, easily enabled through its first and second-floor, airy open spaces — they were made for lounging on wicker furniture and discussing life — as well as the brick-lined treasure trove of art and books in the third-floor library. Intimate and personal, the hotel only has five rooms dressed in tasteful, patterned wallpaper, and overt with high ceilings.
2️⃣ A 4,200-acre pastoral estate in Eastern Tennessee, in the Great Smoky Mountains, Blackberry Farm (@blackberryfarm), is one of the United States’ most sought-after places of accommodation. The hotel is family-owned, and as you can guess by the name, also a running farm — it sources the property’s three restaurants: The Main House, The Barn, and The Dogwood (all of them are lovely). Guests can expect to spend the night in cottages, rooms, and comfortable homes, overlooking the surrounding area.
3️⃣ Boutique and storied, The Drayton Hotel (@thedraytonhotel) houses 50 rooms in the charming, historic town of Savannah, Georgia. Upon entering the victorian-era edifice, travelers are immediately greeted by an open lobby, which holds airy ceilings, and a design that mimics the city’s 22 park-like green squares herringbone brick floors conceptualized from Savannah’s cobblestone streets. From the rooftop deck that grants unmatched views of the Savannah River and Town Hall, to the Southern-accented St. Neo’s seafood brasserie & oyster bar, to the one-site basement speakeasy, the hotel is equipped with various social spaces that pay homage to its Georgia roots.
