“Good medium range classic looking hotel”

DoubleTree Hotel Historic Savannah

Save Review
4 of 5 stars
Philadelphia
30 Aug 2008

After staying three nights at the Savannah Four Points, right next door to the Doubletree, I decided to try this hotel for my last night in Savannah. I found it generally comparable with the Four Points, but overall liked the Doubletree better because I found the setting more elegant and traditional. Basically, your choice between the two hotels should probably be based on whether you like classic hotels or very contemporary ones

The rooms in the Doubletree were spacious and beautiful with high, four poster beds and dark wood furniture. They had a wonderfully knowledgable and friendly afternoon concierge, but an unfriendly morning one. The check in staff was very pleasant and smiled a lot.

The location was sort of a mixed bag. It is right on the edge of the historic district and was very convenient to most of what a traveller would want to see in Savannah; the marketplace, the river, and easily walkable to the historic district. To get to the river cross the street and walk on that side becasue they were (in May anyway) doing repairs on the sidewalk near the hotel.

The only part of the hotel I really didn't like was the food. I ordered room service and although the food was quick, it really wasnt very good. The breakfast buffet the next morning was horrible. It had a traditional hot expanded egg buffet, but the eggs were powered and not even warm. It was also hard to get coffee from the indifferent serving staff.

“Nice rooms, good location to river & city market”

DoubleTree Hotel Historic Savannah

Save Review
4 of 5 stars
Ventura, CA
16 Aug 2008

The Doubletree Savannah is located at the far end of the River and City Market, so be prepared to walk some to get to all of the activities located around the downtown historic area of the city.

The hotel was going through a minor renovation over the weekend of Memorial Day 2008, but not noticeable. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

There's a library room, study, & free computer room for the guests of the hotel.

The pool is small, but on the 2nd floor away from the street to make it quiet (the Days Inn Pool boarders an alley with only fence separating it).

We didn't eat at the hotel, but there's a small bar off the lobby with a few televisions and sofa's to relax in. Valet is really the only way to park at the hotel, it's not expensive, being covered and underneath the hotel.

Our room was nice, the A/C worked very well (a must for Savannah), we couldn't hear any noise from either the hallway or other rooms. The bathroom was large w/a two person spa tub (worth the $10-$20 extra per night).

Overall, a good experience, would stay there again or next door across the street at the Hampton Inn.

“Typical Hilton Hotel”

DoubleTree Hotel Historic Savannah

Save Review
3 of 5 stars
Niles, Illinois
3 Aug 2008

This Doubletree is located in the northeast portion of Savannah, but in walking distance to a lot of the local attractions. It's about 2 1/2 blocks from The Lady and Sons, 3 blocks for the riverfront district, and 2 blocks from the horse drawn carriage rides. The hotel itself offered the typical Doubletree scene, nice comfy beds, courteous staff and cookies in the evening. Parking cost $15 to valet. The biggest disappointment was that the pool was closed during our visit due to heavy rains apparently. We had to go across the street to the Hilton Gardens pool. It was a pain, but at least they made the attempt to accommodate us. Wish there was a place to eat breakfast at this location.

When we come back to Savannah, we would probably stay at the Hilton Gardens. It's directly across the street and serves breakfast daily.

“Decent Option but There Are Better”

DoubleTree Hotel Historic Savannah

Save Review
3 of 5 stars
Greensboro,NC
29 Jul 2008

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.

“Great hotel”

DoubleTree Hotel Historic Savannah

21 Jul 2008

We loved the DoubleTee Hotel in Savannah. The location was very convenient and the hotel was beautiful. The room was very large, clean, and nicely decorated. The beds were very comfortable. The only negatives were that the bathroom door lock was broken and the room did not have a hair dryer. We arrived early and the housekeeping staff quickly got our room ready for us. We received warm chocolate chip cookies when we arrived and there was lemonade available in the hallway. The business center only had two PCs and a printer but they were always available when I needed them. Parking is valet only for $15 per day.
