Southern charm and grandeur with a clean, contemporary finish: that’s The Dewberry in a nutshell.
Guide Michelin, April 2024An eight-year quest to turn a drab, 60s-era federal building into a modernist work of art in a city that trades on Southern colonial quaintness, is nothing short of a smashing success.
Condé Nast Travaler, December 2018Bartenders in white jackets make drinks the old-fashioned way; They're stirred. Which feels just right for the hotel in a 1960s federal building.
Condé Nast Traveler (US), April 2017The new bar for boutique Southern luxury was set with the opening of the Dewberry.

Hotels Own Introduction
A Charleston Experience Like No Other
Discover America’s favorite city through the vision of John Dewberry at The Dewberry, where sincerity surpasses obligation and every detail is crafted to evoke luxury, warmth, and a touch of old Charleston. From secret-recipe limewash and hand-forged metalworks to period furnishings and thought-provoking artwork, each element is a testament to an eight-year collaboration between preservationists, designers, architects, artists, and artisans.
A Warm and Inviting Living Room
Step into the heart of The Dewberry, where gracious hospitality meets effortless style. Our Living Room, with its mid-century furnishings, curated reading library, and show-stopping brass bar, invites you to relax and unwind. Whether enjoying morning coffee, an afternoon cocktail, or an evening aperitif, every corner is designed for comfort. Even the wooden bowls, hand-crafted by local artist Hugh Jeffers from the knots of a 150-year-old white oak, echo The Dewberry’s rich historical ties.
A Spa Rooted in Charleston Tradition
Inspired by John Dewberry’s own Charleston carriage house, The Dewberry Spa defines quiet luxury. Wrapped in cypress-covered walls that exude warmth, the spa offers a deeply restorative escape. Signature treatments, choreographed by renowned spa expert Lydia Mondavi, prioritize your comfort and well-being, creating an experience that reflects the timeless elegance of Charleston and The Dewberry's dedication to serenity.
