Guest Reviews & Ratings
Staying at this hotel was an absolute dream. The rooms were not only incredibly comfortable but also stunningly decorated, making us feel like royalty throughout our stay. The service was top-notch, with only a minor hiccup at the reception desk upon arrival. The location was perfect, allowing us to easily explore the charming squares and riverfront. The dining experience, although served in a beautiful garden setting, could be improved to better match the boutique and four-star image. The facilities were excellent, providing a truly luxurious experience.
The hotel boasts a spacious room with high ceilings, though a bit dark with an odd bathroom layout. The daily happy hour and breakfast gatherings added a nice touch, enhancing guest interactions and creating a welcoming atmosphere.
Wow! I had an incredible stay at this hotel. The rooms were not only very clean and cozy, but stepping into the bedroom felt like being treated like royalty. The location was perfect for exploring Savannah, with a quiet atmosphere and easy access to beautiful squares and parks. The dining experience was delightful in the stunning garden courtyard. However, the claim of being a boutique, four-star inn fell short in the dining department. Overall, it was a fantastic experience with just a minor dining setback.
