The property was in an amazing location and they had some nice perks, including a nightly cocktail hour. The only complaint I would have is our room had a really musty smell and housekeeping didn’t do an amazing job of daily cleaning. They never vacuumed our room the entire week we stayed.

This is a grand historic hotel that oozes Old South. Nestled in the heart of Savannah’s River District, it’s a quick walk to shops and outstanding restaurants as well as the Trolly Tour and Riverboat tours. Nothing could be more perfect.

I am so glad I was able to experience this property. Initially, my fiancé and I had selected the Marriott right up the street but I took another look at River Street Inn reviews and decided to go there instead. Thank goodness there was a room available for us with no rebooking. We enjoyed the staff, room and premises to much that we extended our stay by one night. Cassandra is a gem and absolutely Amazing! They even allowed me to use the conference room downstairs for an interview since our room wasn’t available. Extremely considerate!
