Reviews

TripAdvisors give The Clarendon Inn a perfect average of five owl eyes:

• For a reasonable price, this bed and breakfast offers a clean, quiet and friendly experience. The room was very spacious. You are walking distance to the Cape Fear River and nightlife in downtown Wilmington. The staff at The Clarendon Inn arranged for my taxis around town and to the airport. You're greeted with Southern Charm the minute you arrive to their friendly send off as you depart. – NYHokie
