River Street Inn

The hotel is an old cotton exchange building, so if you like history, this is the place. The only reason it was noisy is that it's right on the river and there was a band playing right outside the hotel in the touristy river walk, but one expects a party down there. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay there. River Street Inn had nice remodeled bathrooms. It was a very pleasant stay.

While in Savannah we took several tours and the staff at the front desk was very helpful with information.

The parking was a bit unusual if you arrive later in the day. Easy to handle once you are aware you can double park in front of the inn until you get a pass. After this and the rooms may take a bit of getting used to, you don't just go to the 5th floor and get to any 5th fl. room. U may have to go to another elevator on the 4th fl to get to certain 5th floor rooms. Otherwise it was all very good.

My husband and I flew in from Kansas City and we stayed 5 days. We never needed to rent a car, everything was within walking distance and the River Street Inn was in the mecca of River St. which is the most hoppin' place in town, beautiful views from our room and we were Not on the River side and still had an awesome balcony. Some Tips: 1. If you plan on eating at Paula Deans, Lady & Sons, go on the Paula Dean Tour through Old Savannah Tours. You'll get to eat at her brother's place (Uncle Bubbas) and get a VIP pass for Lady & Sons, which is well worth not standing in line for half a day, just to get your name on a list.2. First day there, take an Old Savannah Tours - Historic Hop on & hop off Trolley ride. You'll learn alot and be able to "get your bearings" on what is where.3. All the Ghost tours are fascinating and fun, I don't suggest taking any "walking" tours though, because you'll be "pooped" from walking so much anyway, and Savannah can be a little "sketchy" after dark.4. Shrimp Factory on River Street was one of the best places to eat - average meal cost: $15 to $25 per person - but delicious!5. The Andrew Low House was my favorite house to tour, next would be the Mercer, then Juliette Gordon Low Birthplace, then Davenport...all the houses are just amazing!!!6. Look for the FREE Ferry across the river, great for pictures. Usually boards off of River St., just to the east of the Hyatt.7. [*]8. As long as your beer or mixed drink is in a plastic cup, you can walk right out the door and down the street with it (can't be over 16 oz. though) - really cool.Overall we had a great time and my only complaint was the pillows were very flat at the River Street Inn, and each time I called the front desk for extras, they were out, but the bed was comfy and the room was amazing. It was a little noisy Thurs-Sat. Nights because of all the commotion on River St. when trying to sleep, but not horrible.

Lovely spacious room with a beautiful view of river street. Location was awesome, minutes away from river street and blocks away from downtown area and great restaurants.

Super view overlooking River Street, easy access from River Street, quick check in, check out, great restaurants nearby. Would definitely stay here again.

Charming and very quiet, not the commercialized hotel look. Added bonus was complimentary wine when we arrived. Breakfast in the hotel was amazing! Parking is off-site for $10.

Ate the Great Food and Enjoyed All! Especially love the Tuna Bits at One-Eye Lizzy's......

What a great place to stay, especialy if you're looking for a place full of history. Staff was friendly and helpful, rooms were comfortable and clean. Parking not great, but stayed across the street and an overnight stay only cost $12. Beats running to the meter. Would go back again for sure.

We toured Savannah for a few days. Loved the location of the hotel and its history. The staff was wonderful, only complaint is that the bed was rather uncomfortable as it was a super firm bed.
