The downtown Savannah HEI is similar to other properties with three negative issues to be aware of. 1)Breakfast service is the worst of any HEI with lack of food and short hours for a tourist location. 2) Room and lobby doors don't have smoke seals and are dangerous in a high rise hotel. 3) No free parking. This is not a business location, only tourists. Breakfast service stops at precisely 9:30 not a minute later. Most vacationers are rolling in after 8 with a crush of diners after 9 am resulting in chaotic event. They ran out many food items by 9 am during our three days. Frustrating since this is an expensive location and HEI features breakfast. They need to extend breakfast to 10 or 10:30 since vacationers have no urgency to get up early. 2) This is a high rise. As such, the fire code is more strict. However, ownership and city inspectors have failed to enforce the basic smoke control requirements. The doors are in violation of the International Building Code. There are no smoke seals on the doors. This means that any fire event will allow smoke to enter any and all rooms. Very dangerous. Won't stay there again. If you do stay make sure you have a room close to stairs and on lower floor. 3) They have valet parking for $45-$48 power night and adjacent parking lot is around $20 for each exit. More expensive than other HEI and add crazy parking fee to the bill. Best option is too stay outside of the downtown area and simply drive in and pay street parking before 5 pm.
