Guest reviews for The DeSoto
I love the location of the hotel, couldn't be more perfect. The hotel was also beautiful but the housekeeping, bar & dining staff were very poor. Bar staff rude, housekeeping never refilled in room coffee and when having breakfast, had to get or own coffee and creamer refills even after asking for this. There loss, plenty of places close by to get great service which was lacking at the hotel. Also, balcony with no chairs? What is the point? Waste of money to upgrade to skyline view.

Hi Christopher. Thank you for the thorough feedback. I appreciate your love of the location as we are the most central hotel in Savannah. I do apologize for the missteps in service though as that is definitely not our normal way.
Staff is not friendly and not helpful at all. They don’t know the city or parking or any information. I was told I could have a late check out and then rudely denied without explanation. The hotel was being primarily utilized for a wedding where everyone was drunk and running all over the hotel. I had a drink slipped on me in th elevator going to my room and they people were so drunk and rude. The hotel is not nice, rooms aren’t clean, staff is rude and not helpful. I would Never stay here again or recommend staying here.

Kk, Thank you for the honest feedback. I do apologize as nine of this is typical of a stay here. Yes, Savannah is a wedding destination and The DeSoto is very popular for great weddings. However, the wedding parties here are typically very respectful of the space and our other guests. I am sorry for your experience.

Thank you for sharing your experience. We appreciate the review!
Very nice overall.
Bathroom was very small and had a weird set up to turn on shower.
I noticed a Starbucks coffee plastic cup that sat on the piece of furniture on the 9th upon arrival on Saturday. It was still there on Sunday.
That wouldn't happen in my own home so I found that inexcusable.

Hi friend, Thank you for your kind rating and for your feedback. Our elevators are well underway to being completely replaced and soon will offer fast service to all floors.
Staff service was exceptional- hotel amenities were wonderful. Room was clean and comfortable but some things were not in top condition or working order.

Hi Jaclynn, Thanks for the kind rating and great feedback. I am glad you enjoyed your stay. I do want to let you know the elevators are all being replaced and much freshening up is being done. See you in Savannah!
The valleys at the front door were the kindest most helpful members of the staff. Had issues with the TV from day one and asked several times if they could fix it and no one ever came and resolved the problem. The service at the bar at Proof and Provision was bad, bartenders seemed like they could not be bothered when they were there. Several times they would be no where in site. Plus getting a drink took a ridiculous amount of time. Door was left ajar after it was cleaned and clean towels were not put in the room, had to call and request them. Calling housekeeping or the front desk most of the time resulted in no answer, had to keep calling. Pool was closed for over 3 hours in the middle of the day Sunday while it was being “shocked”, understandable. But, not one of the hotel staff was communicating with guests to explain the situation and guests had to seek someone out to find out it was finally safe to use. The hospitality everywhere we went in Savannah was impeccable, but not at the DeSoto. It was like they could have cared less about their guests.

Hello, I appreciate your feedback and I apologize for our missteps in service during your stay. I cannot make excuses or explain away the lack of hospitality you encountered. I am glad you enjoyed Savannah otherwise.
Another wonderful stay!
My husband and I always take a trip to Savannah to celebrate our anniversary. We both fell in love with the city, and that is where we love to be. We always come back to the DeSoto as well! Love the location, love the hospitality and staff. We always feel welcome, and at home. This past visit, we were surprised with a bottle of of the bubbly on ice waiting in our room on our anniversary with a thoughtful card! Truly made me feel special! We can't wait to go back!

Hey Sandra, We love our return guests! Thank you for another great review and rating. I am so happy y'all have made The DeSoto your Savannah home. We always look forward to welcoming you home.
Great hotel. Only complaint is that we specifically booked a hotel room with a balcony to enjoy sitting on a balcony. There are no chairs on the balcony, so it was useless. Wouldn’t recommend a balcony room.

Hey Friend, Thanks for the great rating. The balconies offer great views of the whole historic district and river area. Corner rooms have furniture on the balcony, book one next time for the outdoor lounging you're looking for!
