This was the perfect spot to stay to enjoy historic Wilmington. Michael Pryor, the inn keeper, made sure we were as comfortable as possibe. (Thanks Michael!) We were in the green room, and loved it. The photo on the website doesn't do it justice. The bed was comfortable, very nice bathroom, and it was great having a fridge and microwave... More

I liked this place as soon as I arrived. My room was tastefully decorated, with a comfortable bed and very nice bathroom. The breakfast in the mornings was quite good and there was a good bit of choice of what you wanted. I enjoyed the location as well - just a few blocks away from everything in the Historic District,... More

When my conference's block of rooms was sold out, I quickly turned to TripAdvisor and wasn't disappointed with this venue. Actually, it was much preferred compared to the conference's hotel. Not only is this place charming (I had room 6, the blue room), but every detail is attended to. They even provide a special hand towel for us make-up wearers.... More

I enjoyed the most wonderful accommodations with the most accommodating of innkeepers. Michael Pryor (Innkeeper) and DJ were gracious and helpful from the moment I walked in. Everything was clean and well-maintained including all common areas, the outside sitting area, my room, my bathroom, everything! The biggest surprise was the beautiful kitchen where I was provided with anything a person... More

We chose the Clarendon Inn through Trip Advisor, and we were not disappointed. This is a wonderful place to stay when visting Wilmington. Michael, the Innkeeper, his wife and staff are so welcoming and absolutely lovely, providing us with all sorts of information during our 3 day stay, they were so helpful. Our room, the Green Room, was stunning, elegant... More

My time there was thoroughly delightful. My room was large and lovely, with all the conveniences such as fridge, microwave, and coffee maker. I was there for a three-day reunion with friends from high school and we were given a "Bonus Room" where we could visit and talk, over snacks. Our innkeeper Michael, his wife Glenda, and their charming chihuahua,... More

This is my favourite place for over 2 years now. Every time I'm staying here I'm in another room and each of them are decorated different, so lovely, and lets not forget clean! The innkeeper, Michael, and his staff are making you feel at home! Nothing is too much for him, like that time he took me to late night... More

Our 2 night stay was wonderful. Michael, the Inn keeper, was charming, available, and knowlegable. Transportation choices were terrific and many interests within walking distance. Rooms are lovely and very clean and lots of special touches. Mary and Dick More

The Clarendon is a renovated Catholic school. It has been a heavenly conversion. Our room and all the common areas are beautiful, well-appointed, and immaculately clean. Michael, our host, is a wealth of information, dining recommendations, and down home storytelling. In short, the Clarendon exudes southern hospitality. Our perfect veggie breakfast, fresh coffee, and pleasant conversation with other guests made... More
