This is by far the best tea room I have ever visited and I have been to many. The hotel is gorgeous and the tea room, while small, is beautifully decorated. We made a reservation for five people several months in advance as we were visiting the area on vacation. The staff was incredibly friendly, attentive and explained all the teas and foods served. You can try as many tea flavors as you want. The Mad Hatter and Relaxing teas were my favorites. The tea sandwiches had a great variety and were also tasty. The pimento and roast beef was especially good. All the desserts were excellent, but the raspberry tart and chocolate cake really stood out. The decor is gorgeous shades of pink and the overhead chandelier is magnificent. While afternoon tea is expensive, the food, service, ambiance and entire experience is worth it. The dress code is "elegant." There are several parking garages within walking distance, or the hotel offers valet service. If you are in Charleston, this is a must!

Awesome experience. This was on my wife's list during our anniversary trip. I wasn't going to say no. She said would easily come back again, without hesitation. Every moment brought a smile to her face. 10/10 - will recommend. It is expensive though, but I still think it is worth the experience. I'd go again myself. For the guys: Tea was good, add sugar and cream if not, repeat until you enjoy it. Bite sized food (hors d'oeuvres) arrives shortly after tea, it's actually pretty good. Use the tiny fork to eat it slowly. When food is done, you can try different tea. Do this, it let's your partner try something else as well. After 2nd tea comes 3 tiered plate of mini deserts. We took turns picking out which desert to eat next together. Also, I was the only guy at the time we were there. It was fine. You'll be ok. Have fun

Loved the late afternoon tea at Camillas - it was one of the last stops on the long girl's weekend trip. The atmosphere was so special, the decor just smashingly beautiful, and the food (tea cakes, sandwiches, tea) and the champagne was superb. We booked the Crown Tea and had pink champagne!

I had a delightful experience at Camilla's on King St. in Charleston, SC. The Santa tea party was enchanting, and the hot chocolate and tea were exceptional. The festive atmosphere and attention to detail made it a memorable and beautiful event. Highly recommend!

Hotel bars in Charleston seem to be the best way to experience the city’s hospitality and Camellias might be the coziest. It’s such a charming, intimate space. The decor is breathtaking, somehow quirky but gorgeous. Our server was capable, attentive, and kind. Tea shop by day, bar by night with elaborate and delicious snacks and desserts, this hotel bar was my top experience this weekend. It’s a small space so, with no reservation, we had to wait about thirty minutes but there’s plenty of lounge area just outside the bar which was refreshing after our steamy hot walk to the hotel. I can’t wait to go back.
