Beaufort Hotel

Beautiful facility. Staff is fantastic. Buyer beware, this place is a wedding factory. Thus, the lobby is a zoo and way too loud on the weekends and many guests were drunk and disorderly at all hours of the night. Not sure if I would try the restaurant given the noise and the fact it shares a common area with the bar/lobby area. Truly unfortunate as I wanted to like this place.

We've been to Beaufort several times in the past but have always stayed in B&B's. Decided to try the Beaufort Hotel based on recommendations and we were glad we did. Like most reviews, the staff was excellent, the rooms were upscale, comfortable and clean (save for the one dead roach belly-up in the middle of the floor) on entry, and the views from the rooms along the waterway were outstanding. The restaurant, 34N, was beautiful, with stunning views of the Rachel Carson Nature Preserve across the waterway. Our meals were outstanding (best shrimp and grits I've had in a restaurant) and our server Shannon was the best! Attentive, efficient, and answered all of our local questions. She was so good that we would ask to be seated in her station next time. My only gripe is the valet service. While it's not mandatory, the Hotel says you either use the service or you can park your car 200 yds off the site. So here's my gripe: The Valet Parking is $15/day. If you want your car multiple times during the day to venture around, you have to call the valet service and have it retrieved. Although the lot is next door to the Hotel on an old parking lot that's the size of a football field. The free shuttle is great, until it's not. The last night of our stay, we scheduled the shuttle at 3pm for a 6pm departure into town for dinner. The advertised end of service was 10p so we had plenty of time for a stroll and dinner. Except when we loaded up to leave for town, the driver told us they were short help but they would have one of the maintenance people come pick us up "as long as you can get back by 7:30-8:00p since that was the end of their shift". Definitely shortened our dinner evening and added a little stress to an otherwise enjoyable night. Finally, we planned an early departure next day so I notified the front desk we would need the Valet service to bring our car around about 6:30a. She said that would be fine since they come on service at 6:00am. At 6:20a we were at the front of the hotel ready to leave, when the desk clerk notified me that the morning valet had not arrived yet. She retrieved my key and gave me instructions how to walk to the lot. We loaded up and were on our way. A humorous note; the valet service is automated in that you receive notifications by text regarding status of your requests. About 10 miles down the road we received an update that the valet was "hustling to retrieve our car and would we like to have a tip added to our bill?" Hmmm.......

Nice, clean hotel. Off the beaten path. Quite pricey for any room other than pool or no view especially for Fall. Only issue is parking. Guests pretty much have no choice other than Valet parking, $15 per day since the only other option is a block away in a shady looking, not secured gravel lot next to an old metal building. I understand when it is peak season but there was plenty of room in their valet lot that could have been used for free this time of year.

I really enjoyed my stay at the Beaufort Hotel. The room was gorgeous and clean. I liked the way my name was on the television when I arrived. Kalei helped me get my bags into my car. I really appreciated that because my Mom was in a wheelchair. Thank you, Kalei, for your help with the valet parking.

An amazing experience in every way. Have had meals here in the past but this was our first stay and it will not be our last. Beautiful property, immaculate rooms, outstanding food, but the real treat was the staff. Seemed seriously intent on making us feel welcome, outgoing and friendly and eager to accommodate. Thank you, Beaufort Hotel staff for all your efforts to make our trip so special!

What a spectacular venue for our daughter and new son in laws wedding. The hotel and amenities were awesome. The food, drinks and service from 34 North were outstanding for all of our events. High complements the Chef for the wedding reception and welcome dinner. The event staff was fantastic from planning to execution. Shout out to Holly Cecily Cheyanne Jay Riley Tony Kevin Robyn all of the staff who made this weekend great. I know I forgot many. I Highly recommend the Beaufort Hotel and 34 North restaurant for your next event. Many Thanks Rob and Chris Hodes

We attended a wedding last evening at the Beaufort Hotel. The property was amazing and the food was delicious. What made the event even more special was the staff. Holly, Cecily, Tony and Cheyenne are the best of the best! Thanks for making the entire night one to remember!

My family and I dinner at 34 Degrees North on September 7, 2024. Our waitress Shannon was EXCEPTIONAL! Her customer service and knowledge of her job was top notch. Very personable. Knowledgable. She told us all the new specials they had which we ended up getting two items that she recommended and they were both exceptional. Thank you Shannon for providing such amazing customer service to my family and I.

Great place if you have a few extra dollars to spend. Beautiful view of you ask to sit outside. My server HAILEY W. was great, very kind and helpful. Also quick with service. Been here a handful of times and every time I’ve had excellent service. The FREE VALLET parking for eating at the restaurant is awesome too. Food is really good, the menu is simple and simple to navigate.
