I am so glad I was able to experience this property. Initially, my fiancé and I had selected the Marriott right up the street but I took another look at River Street Inn reviews and decided to go there instead. Thank goodness there was a room available for us with no rebooking. We enjoyed the staff, room and premises to much that we extended our stay by one night. Cassandra is a gem and absolutely Amazing! They even allowed me to use the conference room downstairs for an interview since our room wasn’t available. Extremely considerate!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
It is a historic building so it has its quirks which I personally, like. The room and bathroom are spacious and comfortable. It was nice to be right on the river and very walkable to the historic district and riverfront area. The room needed a deep clean including mildew behind the caulking in the shower which may come with the wet environment of Savannah. It needs to be treated and replaced. Dusty baseboards and corners. Nothing major.

The River Street Inn is an interesting old building, with original flooring/staircases and antique charm. We had two rooms on the 3rd floor, and it seemed as though there had been some historical water damage. Both of our rooms had a pervading ‘musty’ smell, and inability to open window or run a fan. The hotel asked about our stay via text, and when told about the unpleasant odor, they didn’t offer any sort of remedy. Great views of the river, and close to a lot of the town’s best features. We loved the Cotton Exchange bar/restaurant next door, best meal of this leg of our trip. We were also thrilled by the happy hour, run by the fantastic and pleasant Brad: great spread of cheeses/crackers, fruit, delicious local beers, wine, cocktails. Brad’s happy hour was the high point of our stay here. Would stay again if rooms higher up in the building were less musty.

Over all this hotel was comfortable. The service was great. There was a slight mildew smell in the halls and my room which made me suspect that the hotel had suffered water damage in the past. Carpets in the halls and stairs need a good deep clean or replacement. Room carpet was clean. Overall: A bit worn, needs some TLC but excellent location, comfortable bed and friendly efficient staff. Valet parking team was excellent.

Everything was wonderful except we stayed on the 3rd floor and our hallway and our room smelled like mildew/mold really bad. Other than that the staff was amazing, food was delicious, hotel is absolutely gorgeous and it was in the most possible convenient location to shops, restaurants and touring the whole city.
