Bed and breakfast

Question

We need help picking a bed and breakfast in the historic district. Thank you

Answer

Savannah’s Historic District is full of charming bed and breakfasts that give you a true taste of the city’s Southern hospitality and historic charm. Choosing the right one depends on what you value most—location, architecture, ambiance, or extras like breakfast and gardens.

Some general guidance when picking a B&B:

Look for a location close to the squares or River Street if you want easy walking access to restaurants, shops, and historic sites.
Consider the style of the house—many B&Bs are historic homes with antique furnishings, fireplaces, and period details, which add to the experience.
Check whether breakfast is included and if it has dietary options if needed.
Read reviews about service and cleanliness; some smaller B&Bs excel in personalized service.

Here are some popular options in the Historic District:

Hampton Lillibridge House Inn: Centrally located, historic charm, private rooms, good breakfast, within walking distance of major attractions.
President’s Quarters Inn: Elegant Victorian B&B with beautiful rooms, great breakfast, very central location.
Ballastone Inn: Boutique B&B with updated rooms, attentive service, and historic character.
The Gastonian: A highly rated, romantic B&B with lush gardens, luxurious rooms, and gourmet breakfast.
Perry Lane Hotel’s Historic Residence Suites: If you want a mix of hotel and B&B feel, with historic architecture but more modern amenities.

Other considerations:

Book well in advance, especially for weekends, as Savannah is very popular year-round.
Check cancellation policies in case your plans change.
Some B&Bs are pet-friendly, but confirm before booking if traveling with pets.

Ultimately, the best B&B depends on your preference for historic character versus modern comfort, and proximity to the squares or River Street. Any of the above options provide a memorable Savannah experience with personalized service and classic Southern charm.
