A small inn in Savannah’s historic district

Thirty-four rooms, one long porch, and the oaks out front.

Two townhouses from 1857, joined by a courtyard. Breakfast is outside when the weather allows, the coffee is strong, and the front desk knows which squares are quiet after ten.

“We came for a wedding two blocks away and spent most of it on your porch. The biscuits should be illegal, and the woman at the desk at midnight deserves a raise.”

You were right. The unit was replaced the following Tuesday, and there is now someone on call for repairs every night. Your next two nights are on us.

We do not pay for placement on any of them, and Maren answers the reviews there too. Each site rounds a little differently, so the stars do not always match the number.

Small weddings

Sixty guests, the courtyard and a very patient kitchen

About a dozen weddings a year, never two on one weekend. You get the courtyard from noon, every room for your guests, and Renée, who has seen most things go wrong and fixed nearly all of them.

The neighborhood

Scored out of ten by our front desk

Not by an algorithm. By Dee, Marcus and Paulette, who between them have answered “is it walkable?” roughly eleven thousand times.

Walking

Forsyth Park is nine minutes south, the river seven minutes north. Leave the car.

Restaurants

About forty within ten minutes. Ask us before you book the famous ones.

Coffee

Two good ones on Jones Street and a great one on Abercorn.

Quiet at night

Jones Street goes to bed early. Lane-side rooms are the quietest.

Rainy days

Three museums, two bookstores and a very long lunch.

Parking

It is downtown. Valet is $28 a night, the city garage two blocks away $17.
