The access code provided did not work to get into the back of the building. Thankfully one of the employees heard me struggling and let me in. The doors could use a little love as they were difficult to open but that’s likely due to the age of the hotel. Rooms and amenities were very nice but the floors a bit sandy and you could see dust floating against the light.

Location is great, property condition is excellent, area is quiet. Customer service was disappointing. I contacted the hotel a day in advance to arrange early access to store our luggage, was sent the access code and assured it would work as of 11am on check-in day. We arrived at 2pm and the code did not work. Luckily someone was exiting and let us in. Check-in time was 4pm. We returned at 6:30pm, exhausted and eager to get in to our room. It was not ready! We had to wait another 15 minutes, then the room stunk of cleaning products, and the body wash in the shower was empty. I responded to an email asking how check-in went and requested a discount from Sunday rate to weekday rate (just $40), a request which is still unacknowledged. I was sent another email on check-out day stating they hoped our stay was amazing. Not so much.

Plus side: great location, fluffy towels, comfy bed&linens, several free guest amenities ( dental, shaving, coffee). Down side: only stairs, high steps - 3 flights, weird decor ( ink-blotched wood floor, plaster half-removed), basic maintenance needed ( rotting single pane sash windows), coffee one floor down with sink faucet not working, no instructions, access keycode buried deep in the "guidebook" link ( fun at 11.30pm and 37F, poorly lit front door), and typical Savannah lethal sidewalks. Funky hotel for youngsters not us seniors.

The Present hotel is the perfect little stay in the middle of a nice , quiet neighborhood. Parking was really easy ( but you do have to pay - only a dollar an hour though so pretty decently priced). There’s a cute little park across the street, 10 minute walk to downtown , cozy little balconies to get some fresh air . Reusable cups and plates and silverware which I love at a hotel . Awesome coffee makers in the room . Mark was there every morning for any questions and made us feel super welcome . We had a great time .

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Present Hotel, and I can confidently say it was a fantastic experience! From the moment I arrived, the staff greeted me with warm smiles and friendly service that made me feel right at home. The rooms are absolutely delightful—cute and eclectic in their decor, which added a unique charm to my stay. It truly felt like stepping into a cozy and stylish retreat. Additionally, the location couldn't be better. Nestled in the heart of downtown Savannah, it served as the perfect base for exploring the area while still feeling like my own private oasis. I thoroughly enjoyed my time at the Present Hotel and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable stay in Savannah!

This hotel has my heart!!!! Parking was easily available and the property manager was very informative and ensured that I had all the details needed before getting to the property. They even included a picture to my entrance which was extremely helpful! There was no delay with receiving my access code to enter the property and they had everything I needed plus more inside of the room; I had no need to request anything!! The room itself was so beautiful, clean and cozy and loved the balcony area. Ifelt so at home here and will definitely be back!

Place is nice and well located. However, many of their rooms have broken AC. Looking through past reviews, this has been an unresolved issue for months. Upon arriving, our room on the 3rd floor was sweltering with a broken AC, the bed was only partly made and the TV was on and blasting. We contacted the offsite staff. We were lucky in that they were able to move us to another room with AC. But through our stay, other guests in different rooms said they also had no AC and the hotel had no rooms to move them to. This is unacceptable - they don’t let guests know in advance of this issue and you are left to deal with it once you arrive. Until they get some of these not so small details sorted out I would not recommend booking this location.
