6 hotels · Updated February 2026

The Kehoe House — Columbia Square
$$$ Upscale
★ 9.3 Superb

Columbia Square

The Kehoe House

A 13-room inn in one of Savannah's most extraordinary Victorian mansions — an 1892 Renaissance Revival home built by ironwork industrialist William Kehoe on Columbia Square, with original painted ceilings, fireplaces in every room, and the kind of quiet that feels almost supernatural in a working city.

★ 9.1 Superb

Historic District

Eliza Thompson House

One of Savannah's oldest operating inns, a 25-room Federal townhouse built in 1847 with two brick courtyards, original heart pine floors, and an evening cocktail hour around the fountain garden that draws both guests and invited locals. The most authentically residential small hotel experience in the city.

★ 9.4 Superb

Historic District

The Gastonian

Two adjoining 1868 Regency-Italianate townhouses converted into a 17-room inn with working fireplaces, antique four-poster beds, and a full Southern breakfast included that has become something of a Savannah institution. The off-season rates make this the best luxury value proposition in the city.

Hyatt Place Savannah Historic District — Historic District
$$ Mid-range
★ 8.5 Excellent

A reliable chain option in a location that would normally command boutique prices — the proximity to Broughton Street shopping and the waterfront, consistent service, and reasonable rack rates make it the best value chain hotel in the Historic District for travellers who prioritise location over character.

The Olde Harbour Inn — River Street
$$ Mid-range
★ 9.0 Superb

A converted 1892 oil warehouse on the bluff above the Savannah River — 24 suite-style rooms with exposed brick, timber beams, and river views that frame the Talmadge Memorial Bridge at sunset. The included continental breakfast and prime River Street location make it outstanding value for a Savannah waterfront stay.

Historic District

Andaz Savannah

Hyatt's boutique-spirited brand occupies a modern building on Ellis Square — Savannah's most food-centric public square — with a pool terrace, excellent service, and a proximity to the City Market restaurant cluster that no other hotel matches. The bar programme references Georgia spirits and Savannah's cocktail heritage.
