Everything about our stay was extraordinary! The staff were all so kind and accommodating, their tips and just see spots were all absolutely wonderful. We absolutely loved the breakfast, afternoon tea and the champagne toast in the evenings. We were celebrating our 20th anniversary and are already planning our next stay at the Bellwether House. Absolute perfection from start to finish.

The Bellwether property and staff are amazing. They truly make you feel at home in a beautiful setting in Savannah. The location is excellent, so close to Forsyth park and the downtown area, but away from too many crowds to make it peaceful and enjoyable. Paul, Matt and Scarlett were excellent hosts. Breakfast was outstanding with so many options. We also loved the Tea Time snacks and Champagne toast. I would definitely stay there again!

As a last minute stay we could not have been more pleased! The property is just lovely, the staff phenomenal, the espresso martini 10/10, the bagels and lox and the hand crafted cappuccino snuggled up in the most luxurious sheets ever like I could go on forever! My only complaint was that we didn’t not have the time to stay longer! With that being said we have already booked a weekend in August and will be taking full advantage of the spa services and hopefully a yoga class as well :)

We just had a little problem with the digital lock not working initially and confusion on what was booked when they offered to change our room. But after some time they were able to get the lock working properly and we got into our original room. Ocean, the staff person working was amazing and kind as he juggled many things while trying to deal with our unique situation. Everything else was fantastic and we hope to be able to go back someday.

I really enjoyed my stay at the Bellweather. Super charming and clean with nice amenities and the largest porch in Savannah. They have afternoon tea at 4 PM and champagne every day at 6 PM. My only suggestion is that some of the staff could be more proactive with guest engagement. Especially if a guest is traveling solo.
