The Partridge Inn

Very disappointed! The new renovation has changed the whole feel of southern comfort. Also the staff was very unorganized and the food was very bland.

Hilton has renovated the historic site into a Curio Collection Hilton property. I like it! Big comfy bed. Sexy mirrored wall. Modern furnishing and Spacious room. I’ve been looking for «Emily» but sadly there’s no sign of her. I would definitely stay here again. Nice veranda off the Bar/​Restaurant. Slow service but we weren’t in a hurry. Very close to Augusta National.

Went to a birthday party and ended up on vacation. We went to PI for my girlfriends birthday celebration. All of us who attended enjoyed the live music in the P.I. Bar and Grill. We only ordered appetizers.
Our highlight came after the celebration. Her friends presented her with a room at the «Partridge INN» The hotel has just about finished the major renovations that been ongoing for about a year. The result is a beautiful hotel in a great location. The room was a suite (nice friends). The bed was comfortable the amenities were top notch. We had such a good time we are planning another in town get away at the P.I.
The next morning we were given a complimentary brunch for two. I don’t know about you all but crab legs, omelettes, salmon, bacon, biscuits w/​gravy, and cheese cake on the huge porch, on a warm pleasant October morning, priceless! Spread the word the P.I. the place for brunch.

Another beautiful historical hotel has been mollified by poor design. The venerable grand dame of Augusta has been turned into a Hilton Garden Inn. The front porch which could have been magnificent has been covered by furniture from Costco. The interiors are black and gray — how drab. Even on a careful budget it could have been elegant and beautiful. Alas it will never be The Willcox or any of the beauties of Charleston.

I was not particularly impressed with this hotel. Although there are some cool historic things at this location the fact that parking is very limited and does not allow any sort of access other than up-​and-​down stairs carrying luggage was not very welcoming. The staff at the front desk seem to be quite an organized not sure even how to check somebody in properly. My visit to the restaurant for dinner was pretty good with the staff being very friendly and courteous. Unfortunately, for breakfast the experience was quite different; I first asked for some iced tea and was told they did not have that so then I asked for a bottle of water and the reply was, sir we only serve breakfast drinks in the morning coffee or juice. It was at that time I just decided to leave and go else where. I probably will not stay here again.

Beautiful, historic place with a wonderful porch. I would give this place five stars except the service is lethargic and blah. Second time here and they rarely visit our table to ask if we need anything (and we ordered bottles). Very disappointed in what could be better executed.
The manager seems like a nice guy.
Don’t order anything cheaper than the William hill cabernet and avoid most of the white wine under $ 40. Seriously.

Well it wasn’t as bad as what other reviewers claimed but they were here in the height of renovation. The hotel was nicely re-​done and the rooms were modern. The beds were super comfortable and the service was good. I had a balcony room however they gave me the worst view, thankfully it was raining so it didn’t quite matter.
The dining was very limited and out of the item I first requested. The second floor, where dining is, smelled like cat pee upon exiting the elevator. I’m hoping that was due to the fact it was rainy very heavy or someone in particular smelled. The wine list was decent and I sat at the bar with others. I had breakfast delivered in the morning. They don’t offer coffee, just the room coffee maker, as I didn’t receive any and I wrote it in on my door tag. They slightly messed up my order as I requested half egg white and the whole omelette was egg white. It was a little too greasy but decent to eat. Had no additional flavoring like salt or pepper, same goes for hash browns.
The fitness room still wasn’t up and running but I knew from previous reviews it may not be by the time I stay. You can go to the YMCA about 4 miles away and workout for free if you tell them you stayed at the Partridge.
I’m going with a 3 because overall it wasn’t horrible and I think there is room for improvement once they’ve been up and running for a while and completely renovated. I’ll try again in 6+ months.

Two words: Constant hammering. Good luck sleeping or resting quietly. The hotel is under renovation and they should not be open until it’s done. Total rip off. Also ceiling leak right in the restaurant. How does that pass inspection? This is a very old historic building built in the 1800s which is nice for history buffs but NOT for anyone with allergies. No renovation can get rid of the old musty basement smell. Also after decades of allowing smokers that smell has got to be in the walls. A paint job does not cut it. Made me sneeze as soon as I walked in. Oh and using the hairdryer made the power go out. No lights in half the room. Seriously. Made me late to the airport. I think they would do better to gut it to the studs and then reno… or just tear it down and build something NEW.

I loved it before the renovation and I love it after the renovation. The Partridge Inn one of the many reasons I love coming to Augusta, GA. I last stayed here in early June when the renovations were partially complete, so when I walked into the all new swanky lobby I couldn’t help myself and yelled out, «Holy makeover!» The front desk employees laughed and checked me in.
The rooms are completely redone. It’s very modern and fancy. There is a gigantic mirror over the bed, which I for one find to be exceptionally creepy. Just saying. The bathroom is also completely redone. The whole vibe kind of reminds me of a Westin — white, minimalist, and modern. The Partridge Inn was acquired by the Hilton and they’ve done such a good job renovating it that you would have no idea you are staying in a historic hotel. (I’ve stayed here countless times pre-​renovation, and yes the PI was dated but it was also charming.) I also slept like a baby and really enjoyed my stay.
They have a rooftop bar now, which is open whenever the penthouse is not rented. Yeah, you read that right. You get to hang out in the penthouse and on the roof as long as patrons aren’t here. Translation: No rooftop bar during Masters week because some baller flew in town and rented this out for sure. But for now, it’s a really cool to enjoy cocktails and a view over Augusta. The main restaurant and bar are still undergoing renovations, so I’ll be interested to see how that turns out because that’s ordinarily a great bar as well.
All and all, the Partridge Inn is my go to hotel whenever I come to Augusta. Now it’s all nice and new and Hilton-​y, but I for one wish they’d done a better job keeping at least some of the old PI charm. I’m still a huge fan, but I wish it had more of a historic Southern feel to it still.

The history of the hotel was very cool! However, the service and amounts of noise was awful. I specifically requested a quiet room months in advance, I was assured I would have a suite that was very seculuted and quiet. At first, the room appeared to be nice. We saw 2 cockroaches crawl under our bed. Both mornings we woke up to non stop banging above us where they were I guess doing construction. Our a/​c was malfunctioning both nights and they said they would send someone up… Never did. We were at the pool that had no trash cans and my girlfriend walked in and asked staff where closest restroom was, they replied «upstairs» and walked off. Although under construction, you would think someone would apologize or staff would be more courteous. Too bad such a nice place is being taken care of this way.

So today’s day 2 of our «yes, we’re going to review this place» stay… Actually we’ve been here for a week and we’re in the middle of a 2 week stay.
Today again no housekeeping. We’ve resulted to throwing the dirty towels and garbage into the hallway (in bags. Not just out in the hallway. I’m not that big of an A-​hole). We threw that stuff out there at 6:00pm and it’s now 10:30pm… Still sitting there.
I thought today was great because someone from the hotel staff came outside at 9:45pm to tell us that the pool was closing at 10:00pm… Okay, how about that room I’m staying in that hasn’t been stocked up for 2 days now, eh? I have to go down to the the front desk here in a sec to get coffee packets, creamer and sugar for tomorrow morning. I am also taking a pic tomorrow of the «Wash Me» that one of the kids wrote in the inside of the bedroom window because the lighting is crappy right now and just doesn’t fully express what I’m currently feeling.
My 5yr old daughter just found a loose light bulb on the floor under the left nightstand next to the bed. Good thing she’s not suicidal or she could have broken it to cut herself.
Not only all that, but before we left the hotel earlier today there were other people requesting housekeeping in the same hall as us because they weren’t serviced the day before.
Beyond all that crap, the staff is nice and the people staying here as well!
