Our go-to in Savannah.
Pros:

The location in relation to the river, as well as the historical relevance of the building itself.
Attached restaurant and bar is accessible from inside or out and rests with a perfect view of the river.

Cons:

Nothing.

Pros:

King room with river view and balcony was great. awesome views of the river, enjoyed the managers reception in the evening. The Broken Keel restaurant was nice, just a few floors down. They left champagne and chocolate for our anniversary. Would definitely stay here again. Side note we paid 37 dollars for 3 nights in the parking garage across the street instead of the 50 dollar a day to valet.

Cons:

There was a band playing under us, but it was usually quite by 10-10:30

Pros:

My room opened to the river, it was beautiful. The room and the hotel appeared to take the restoration seriously. The staff at the front desk were wonderful - both checking in and checking out. Also, my meal at the Broken Keel was excellent. Shrimp tacos.

Cons:

We went to lunch after checking out on the riverfront and we were not able to get back into the building without a key
