    This place is very large. The living area is great! Lots of new furniture as well as new appliances. Again very spacious. Loved the rooms so decorative. The part I loved best was the prices cheaper than a hotel in the area and also much bigger. I also loved that there were two bathrooms. Normally the bathrooms are squished for my family of 5. But these where the perfect size

    Outstanding. Roomy and comfortable. The price is the same as a hotel room but you get an apartment. Check in is easy via email and a door code. Free parking!!! Location is perfect. Close to everything in the historic district.

    The brick courtyard enclosure on the right and steps leads to the 3 units for the Lodge.

    We were very, very surprised! This lodge is located in the back alley directly adjacent to the Holiday Inn Express on Bay Street. You book your stay as well as check-in @ Holiday Inn Express and because of this arrangement, you also have access to all of their amenities, including free breakfast, rooftop pool, fitness center and free wifi. Once your past the shock of a back alley entrance, you'll climb up a flight of metal exterior stairs and enter what is virtually an apartment building. There are three levels and ours was on the second floor. The first room you see as you enter the unit is the kitchen, which is FULL sized and larger than some home kitchens. Glance down a long hallway that leads to the living room and you'll notice a HUGE coat closet on the left. Next you'll see full baths on both the left and right and the first of two bedrooms just before entering the living space. Great flat screen TV greets you along with a pullout sofa, and a few other pieces of furniture. Wood trim, carpet and wall coverings are classic old south and the ceilings are tall for a nice spacious feel. The front bedroom along with the living parlor both have window views of Bay Street. The mattresses in the bedrooms were Tempurapedic memory foam and made for some very comfortable sleeping. There was very little wall art but the size of the apartment and the feel of this old building make up for it's lack of decor. It felt like it's walls could tell a million stories if they could talk. Next morning we had some amazing bagels @ the complimentary buffet and checked out to head home. It easily sleeps 6 people and has three flat screen TV's. One night in here was not enough, and although it was much more than we would normally budget for per night, it was soooooo worth the money. We had a wonderful time!

    You're right next door to Treylor Park, which is an amazing restaurant, and can enter from their bar in the back (which is next to your patio).

    I had a solid stay here over my Christmas vacation in Savannah. This is a very nice location,…read moreacross the street from the River area. Staff were pretty good, not perfect all around but pretty good. The Room was clean, and had everything I needed. I liked the location, and you can walk around the area as there is plenty to see and enjoy. I was here on Christmas Day and walked outside and it was nice to see a lot of other people doing the same. The concierge here was very helpful in showing me the tour options for Savannah. One stop was right down the street too. I would stay here again.

    TLDR; just spend the extra money to stay somewhere else…read more We stayed here for 2 nights and 3 days. The room was clean, but the walls are thin. You can hear your neighbors :) It's crazy how the elevator was being serviced DURING BREAKFAST one morning and everyone had to use the stairs. It was especially bad because someone in my party needed to use a walker due to their bad knees. We had to carry the walker up and down the stairs and they were literally crawling to go up and down. I asked one of the male staff about it in the front desk and they said that there was nothing they can do and that the elevators will be both back up at 8:30 AM. We went out and took a stroll, came back around 9:00 AM and the elevators were not yet fixed. It was just ridiculous! Later on in the day, they managed to get ONE of the elevators working :) The next morning, we went to breakfast at 7 AM and everything is broken! Only one elevator is working, there is no coffee at all, no pancakes, and even the juice machine got hit! It was honestly insane. If you go on vacation, just go somewhere else.

    I was extremely impressed with the JW Marriott Savannah Plant in the Riverside District. The lobby…read morewas spectacular and unlike any other lobby I've ever seen. The lobby is sensory overload when you first enter it. It's colorful with silver dinosaur bones and pterodactyls overhead. I kid you not! If that wasn't impressive enough, there are humongous crystal geodes on display. Some of the were even larger than me. There's an entrance to an African themed bar which served African inspired dishes, which I'd never had before. All this may seem like it shouldn't go together, but it does. The rooms were stylishly elegant. The bathroom is spacious and well stocked with bathrobes, slippers and quality toiletries. The beds and pillows were plush and cozy. Since we were there for a conference, the ample work area was appreciated. There is a chaise lounge right next to the window where I watched steamboats and cargo ships sail by on the Savannah River. The location was predictably right next to the river. I spent a whole day just walking on the River Walk with a variety of restaurants, dessert shops, candy stores, bars, cafes and souvenir shops. While it was geared towards tourists, which I was, I didn't have to go far from my hotel to get a taste of Savannah. There are historical buildings complete with the moss covered tress and cobblestone streets (which sounds quaint until you walk on it without twisting an ankle). Coming from hotel industry, I can appreciate a well run 5 Diamond hotel. While the stay was extra ordinary, there were a few things I wasn't fond of. The hotel has 3 parts to it. We were staying in the 3 Muses, which is a separate building and bit of a walk from the lobby. The walk isn't an easy one, which was an issue for my elderly father. Since we visited in the summer and the weather was hot and humid, walking out of the airconditioned lobby to trek over to the 3 Muses was less than ideal with my glasses fogging up at each entry and exit. But these were minor hiccups in an otherwise fantastic stay.

    This Hilton is in a great location, and it's really pretty…read more Unfortunately, I was placed in a room that is really close to their rooftop pool. I would think that quiet hours for the pool would be 9 PM, but apparently they aren't. I believe they are 10 PM. There was a group of what appeared to be teenagers screaming nonstop for about three hours straight. I don't know, if I was staff at a hotel, I would probably tell them to keep it down after 8 PM, but that's just me. It sounds like the rooms on the other side of the hotel are really noisy as well, so I guess moving and wouldn't have done much. The valet took a really long time in the morning. I wouldn't have minded that if they would have told us in the beginning, but when you check in, they tell you to give them five minutes to retrieve your vehicle. It took the guy 20 minutes to respond to my request (I was first in the queue) and I had to go walk down and grab the car myself because I needed to leave immediately. It sounds like he was managing two properties, so not his fault. When not knowing where the valet was, the front desk wasn't helpful. She kind of dismissed the issue. She did end up calling him, but she didn't act like she cared about our situation at all in the beginning. It actually prompted us to take action and another gentleman waiting for his car went and looked in the valet garage to see if somebody was even there because he was having the same issues. Anyways, my first and last time staying at this hotel. Too many other options in the area. I really need a reliable valet, unfortunately.

    I was honestly frustrated by my stay here, especially after reading past reviews…read more For years, guests have mentioned the truck noise, and management keeps replying with the same line about "sharing feedback with the appropriate teams." After staying here, it's clear nothing has actually changed, which is disappointing. I was on the 5th floor facing Bay Street, which turns out to be a major truck route near the interstate. The AC unit was loud, so I turned it off since it was cool outside. That's when the real issue became obvious. There's a traffic light right by the hotel, so trucks constantly stop, idle, and then accelerate again. The noise was incredibly loud, to the point where it felt like I was standing right on the sidewalk. Sleeping was difficult. It also made me wonder about room assignments. If this has been a known issue for years, you'd think they'd avoid placing guests with status in those rooms. A quieter-facing room would have made a big difference. There were a few other issues: * Couldn't access the pool or jacuzzi with the digital key (only the gym worked) * The jacuzzi itself looked worn and in need of refinishing * No complimentary water in the room or lobby, which is surprising given the Savannah heat (though there were cookies and coffee downstairs) * Toilet seat was oddly shaped and uncomfortable * Bedside lamp outlets were loose and didn't hold a charger securely * The clock on the nightstand was extremely bright at night with no way to dim it On the positive side, the lobby has a nice fireplace, and I appreciated the bathroom nightlight. All the staff I encountered seemed very young, under 30, which made me wonder if most roles here are entry-level. I couldn't help but notice a consistent pattern in who was working which positions, while visiting the south. Overall, the biggest issue is the noise and the lack of real action on something that's been raised repeatedly over the years.

The building is historic and you can feel it when you walk around the building. The rooms were recently renovated for furniture, but they retain the historic feel to them. The bed here was very comfortable and I got a great rest here. The bathroom was also renovated and was very clean. I came here with a large party and we booked a few rooms and everyone loved it here. My son and his family had a suite with a balcony. Their room's balcony entrance was from the window. I think this is the first time I saw this setup. There was breakfast service here as well. When you come in, you sit down and right away a waitress came with a paper menu. You would fill in what you would like for breakfast and within a few minutes they brought out the food. The menu options were excellent, they had grits, oatmeal, eggs, yogurt, bacon, bagels, bread, fruit and a few more items. The breakfast really filled me up for the day. The service here was phenomenal. We arrived very late due to a delayed flight and they had an attendant at the front desk who checked us in and had a friendly attitude. The hotel also has valet service. The staff and housekeepers were very nice, accommodating and did a great job taking care of us. I had a great welcoming stay at the Marshall House.

Everywhere is walkable in Savannah in the historic district, but this hotel is in the heart of the city. The hotel is historic, but clean and updated. The staff is amazing.

Every place from the restaurants to the waterfront were all a 10 minute walk or less! Highly recommend!
