Where Savannah’s famous Landmark District begins, so does your Savannah vacation – at the River Street Inn, history is literally at your doorstep. Another quality that makes the River Street Inn our No. 1 Savannah inn is that you can experience the past in so many ways, even without leaving the inn.
All 86 rooms here carry a different theme and décor, which isn’t to say that the River Street Inn is a theme hotel. Instead, with hardwood floors, period and imported tapestries and flourishes such as four poster beds, it’s an example of the entire tradition of U.S. inns. The difference from its beginnings as a cotton storage and grading building in 1817 is that now the rooms contain amenities including HBO/cable TVs, data ports and in-room safes.
This elegant inn rests along Factors Walk, which was used by the professional cotton graders and includes alleys, bridges and a ballastone street that connect to the River Street Inn on all five floors. And if you need another reminder of how little things can change over the centuries, the Savannah River is always within sight.
