A Definite Guide to Savannah’s 5 Best Boutique Hotels

It’s no wonder Savannah, Georgia, has earned a reputation as ‘The Hostess City of the South.’ As the oldest city in Georgia, this beloved town has a long and colorful history that attracts countless visitors each year. With manicured parks dotted with Spanish-moss-filled trees and delicious, traditional comfort food to horse-drawn carriages and antebellum architecture, Savannah’s Southern charm can be seen and enjoyed on every block. Ahead, learn more about the most quaint and charming boutique hotels in this Southern escape.


The Gastonian

For those who want a stay that’s unique and historic, The Gastonian offers all that and more. One of Savannah’s most elegant mansions, this picturesque hotel consists of two beautifully restored 1868 residential homes on Gaston Street. The 17 rooms, all of which are specially decorated, feature antique furnishings, original fireplaces, and beds. Details range from twinkling chandeliers and clawfoot tubs to private balconies and plush chairs.

The hotel’s charm goes beyond its rooms and preserved architecture. Guests are treated to a complimentary Southern breakfast, afternoon hors d’oeuvres, and evening desserts with wine—served either in the parlor or delivered directly to their rooms. The Gastonian also offers free parking and concierge services as well as special packages to make each stay as memorable as possible.
