Our Unique History

A Bridge Connecting
Past & Present

One of the first things guests and passersby notice about Indigo Inn is the soft teal hue. Our building has history—and it starts with the indigo plant. In the 1850s, it was originally an inventory warehouse to store indigo dye, an organic blue pigment extracted from the plants' leaves.

Our Unique History

Bright
Beginnings
In Charleston

A broad spectrum of tones colored handmade clothing and textiles, imprinting a bit of Charleston’s character in each garment. Though the beloved indigo warehouse came and went with time, the building remained a vibrant thread in the fabric of pre-civil war era Charleston.

Our Unique History

Inspiring
A Colorful
Future

Moved by the beauty and potential in Downtown Charleston, innkeeper Frances F. Limehouse acquired the building in 1979. Renovations to develop the Inn as a luxury hotel in Downtown Charleston were soon underway, sparking a local restoration movement.
