SAVANNAH WAS MADE FOR A SLOW WEEKEND

Savannah does not need skyscrapers, massive resorts, or a packed itinerary to make a trip feel full. The city works differently. Moss-covered squares, historic homes, cobblestone streets, rooftop cocktails, Southern food, River Street, and nights that somehow stretch much later than the city's laid-back personality would suggest all become part of the experience.

For Black travelers, Savannah also carries history that deserves more than a passing mention. Black history is woven throughout the city, from slavery and emancipation to Gullah Geechee culture, Black churches, businesses, neighborhoods, and generations of Black Savannahians who helped shape what the city is today. That history exists alongside the Savannah people come for now: restaurants, nightlife, festivals, architecture, art, and one of the South's easiest cities to simply wander.

Choosing the right hotel can make that experience even better. Stay in the Historic District and much of Savannah is outside your front door. Choose the riverfront and the energy changes completely. Go upscale and Savannah now has properties like Hotel Bardo, Perry Lane, Thompson Savannah, and the massive JW Marriott Plant Riverside competing with the historic hotels that have long defined the city.

Our Top Savannah Hotels brings those different experiences together, from luxury stays and boutique properties to dependable hotels that put more of the travel budget toward actually enjoying the city.

Savannah is not a city you rush through. Pick the right hotel, park the car, and stay awhile.
