Welcome to Savannah, Georgia's Lodging Guide!
The
Old South's decadence survives in the city of Savannah, where moss-covered
live oak trees and antebellum mansions dominate the landscape. The city's
unique layout, which includes verdant parks and 21 green squares amid
architecturally and historically significant buildings, creates a historic
charm and beauty not found elsewhere in America. Savannah is a place where
languid afternoons are spent sipping mint juleps on large wrap-around
porches, and voices with warm southern drawls extend hospitable words
to visitors. One of the best ways to experience this delightful Southern
city is on a horse-drawn carriage ride, which meanders down shade-covered
avenues dotted with street-corner jazz bands. The mystique surrounding
Savannah includes tales of ghosts, voodoo - and perhaps most famously
- murder, as featured in John Berendt's best-selling novel, "Midnight
in the Garden of Good and Evil." Spirits, often with names and horrific
stories attached to them, are said to haunt many Savannah bed and breakfasts.
Haunted or not, Savannah's accommodations provide guests with plenty to
rave about. The Southern hospitality and romantic allure of the city spills
into Savannah's motels, leaving even the most discerning of guests enchanted.
Fort Pulaski and the gorgeous beaches of Tybee Island are just a short
drive away from this southern Belle of Georgia.
Visiting Savannah
Savannah
enjoyed a fair amount of anonymity before the publication of John Berendt's
true-crime novel, "Midnightin the Garden of Good and Evil."
Berendt recognized the undiscovered beauty, charm, and character of Savannah,
and managed to capture it on paper for millions. Tourism to the city rose
dramatically after the book's publication. Many of the novel's colorful
characters still inhabit Savannah today, and tourists flock to the city
to glimpse them. Guests are certain to enjoy the beautiful Savannah Lodging
and nightlife. Most city tours cater to "Midnight"
fans. Check out motels and resorts today!
