The Doubletree is located on the edge of the Savannah historic district ... on the corner of Bay & MLK. It is an easy walk to the main tourist and restaurant area including River Street, the City Market, Broughton Street and many of the squares.
Although there were signs posted regarding ongoing renovation, we did not see any work going on. The lobby opens to a sitting area with couches and such. Valet parking is a must ($15) and the bell staff were abundant and friendly.
The room was clean and the bed very comfortable. The AC is one of those separate, by the window, units that is not climate controlled. The bathroom was small and the tub / shower was very slippery.
The workout facility had only a few machines and the pool outside was small.
The restaurant (John Ryan's Bistro) had a buffet breakfast (it was fair in quality) and a full dinner menu. There was a small bar just outside the restaurant.We only ate there for breakfast but the dinner menu surprised me with a $30 filet. For $32, you can get a filet at 700 Drayton ... which is one of the best restaurants I have ever ate in. With all the good dining choices close, there really is no need to eat in the hotel.
The staff was especially friendly throughout the property.
If you are just looking for a comfortable place to stay in Savannah (or, as we were, staying with Hilton Honor points) this is a good option. However, the Hyatt and the Westin (across the river) would be a nice step up.
