Riverfront hotel in Savannah’s historic district
Originally a storehouse for cotton during the 1800s--when Savannah's waterfront boasted a bustling cotton exchange--River Street Inn sits on a bluff overlooking the Savannah River. The inn comprises five floors wrapped around a central atrium. Throughout the property, antique furniture and period décor create an old-world ambiance with modern conveniences. The inn's central location at the north end of Savannah's historic district puts guests within easy walking distance to the bars and restaurants of River and Broughton Streets.
Highlights
- Great location overlooking River Street and the Savannah River
- Trolley tours of Savannah's historic district stop outside the hotel
- Walking distance to many downtown bars, restaurants and attractions
Rooms
Southern ambiance permeates the inn's décor with antique and antebellum-style furnishings. Each room has its own personality, from hardwood floors and four-poster beds to plush carpeting and wrought-iron headboards. All 86 rooms overlook the Savannah River or downtown Savannah. Watch large ocean freighters ply the busy port river from French-style balconies found in some rooms.
Features
Built in 1817 out of ballast stones left by visiting ships, the first two floors of the inn make up a section of Factor's Walk--a network of narrow streets, alleys and bridges that supported one of the South's busiest cotton ports. Numerous restaurants, bars, shops and tour options surround the hotel. Visit Huey's Southern Café for low country favorites like shrimp, oysters and fried green tomatoes. Guests can buy tickets for trolley tours of the city or river cruises from the front desk. A complimentary evening guest reception with wine and hors d'oeuvres is held Monday to Saturday. A fitness center with professional-grade cardio equipment is located onsite.

Beautiful Hotel in a Beautiful City!!
I was going to Savannah to visit SCAD and was looking for a cheap hotel to stay for a few days. The Riverside Inn blew my expectations out of the water! My room was very luxurious and clean, the staff was very friendly and helpful and the location was stellar! At the very tip of the Historic District, I was able to walk everywhere I needed to while staying in Savannah.

The best deal Ever!!
I've stayed at hundreds of hotels and this one is likely to be the best deal I have ever encountered when booking a hotel room. The room was gorgeous, spotless, and most accomodating. My wife's first question was, "How much did you pay for this?" as it appeared to be a five star hotel, with rooms in the $100's. The most comfortable night's sleep I have had in hotel, with a room truly representative of Savannah. It also offered a great view and the best possible location in all the city. We only stopped in Savannah because we were on our way down to Florida and have now decided that this is our go-to hotel for anytime we are in that area.

Historical Hotel
The River Street Inn is one of two historical hotels in Savannah and well worth staying at. The rooms are very spacious and comfortable. It had two comfy chairs and a big bathroom, and plenty of storage. We had a river view and could see the big ships go down the river. It was very hot during our visit and the A/C cooled us off very quickly each time we returned to our room. This is a perfect location for walking to many shops, dinning and site seeing.

Not Applicable
Check in location is located on East Bay Street instead of East River Street. Parking is very limited. Unload your luggage, then you will be given a card key for parking garage which will cost you $8 per day. Elevator in atrium will take give you access to lower River Street for shopping and dinning.

Wonderful Weekend
Friendly and helpful staff; location in the heart of River Street so we were able to shop and dine without driving anywhere; the hotel was historic and very clean; the rooms were large and we had a river view with a balcony

Amazing location for the price.
The location is perfect - right on the river. Close to shops and restaurants. It's also within walking distance to all of the historic areas that Savannah has to offer. I will definitely stay here on my next trip to Savannah.

I highly recommend taking the Savannah on/off Tour. It takes you all around the historic district and allows you to get off and on at 15 different locations throughout the city.

Unbeatable for the price
Real nice hotel right in the middle of everything and for $113.00/night. [...]One minor complaint is that the A/C vent had a little annoying rattle(room# 335), but I would definitely stay there again

Beautiful inn with pefect location
We take girl trips to Savannah every two - three months. We have always stayed on Bay Street or at a bed and breakfast. However, when we saw the great rate at River Street Inn, we decided to try it. We have all decided that it is our new favorite place to stay. Everything was perfect. We shopped, ate, listened to live music and had a great time.
