Hotel's Favorite
My friend and I stayed at the Eliza Thompson House on our first visit to Savannah. We both wanted old, quaint, beautiful, and clean, and this place didn't disappoint. Our room was so nice and very roomy. The staff were extremely nice and very helpful. The food was great and the wine and snacks is such a nice touch and terrific for mingling with other guests. The courtyard where breakfast is was so pretty. It is in the historic district and the street was quiet. Would highly recommend this place.

I wasn’t crazy about how old the room felt but beds were comfortable. The courtyard they serve breakfast was beautiful and staff super friendly. Parking stunk, we had to park a couple blocks away. Breakfast was good.

This bed-and-breakfast is in a quiet part of town, but we were able to walk to everything in 10 minutes or less. The wine and dessert receptions were lovely (and saved us money), and the concierges were very helpful. I wish we had relied on them more.

We have stayed at ETH multiple times over the past 13 years and unlike today's hotels, after all that time the condition of physical facility seems unchanged. (In a good way.) They do an excellent job of maintaining the building property. I'm sure there have been improvements in wireless technology and air conditioning, but the rooms, lobby, and patio seem frozen in time - in a welcoming, comfortable Southern style. The staff is excellent, always helpful and smiling. The breakfasts are by order the night before, the wine and hors d'oeuvres from 5:30-7:00PM is a chance to visit with other travelers, and the Port wine and dessert from 8:00 to 9:00 might run a bit longer into the evening. The location is great, it's just north of Forsythe Park in the southern end of the Historic District. Park your car on the street for a $15.00/day fee and just walk, uber, tour trolley or bicycle rickshaw everywhere. It's a 15 minute walk north to the river and maybe 10 minutes east to west. The trolley has 15 different stops and you can get on or off all day at any of the stops, $40/day per person. For first time visitors, taking a guided round trip will help you get oriented to the city. You need to make dinner reservations the day before or more, as although there are many restaurants, by noon they are usually booked for the evening in season.…

Yes, location was terrific. Anticipated the creative, food & beverage we've received at similar historic inns. Disappointed here. Very slow breakfast service even though menu selections were submitted the night before. Dated bathroom and very small. Furnishings could be updated and "garden area" was unswept for quite some time, contributing to a dirty look. Would recommend cushions on all of the garden furniture all the time.

Thank you for your review, KitchnQ. We sincerely appreciate the feedback. We thank you for staying with us, but apologize it wasn't up to your expectations. While we do ask you to fill out your breakfast menu the night before, we like to try our best to emphasize that it is a fresh-prepared breakfast and not previously made. Once you seat yourself for breakfast at the time you selected, our chef then starts cooking and preparing your order. I apologize that the service was slow, but I do sincerely hope that you still enjoyed the food. We are working on getting our rooms and our courtyard updated in the near future to better serve our guests and to amplify the guest experience. We will certainly take your feedback into account when that happens. We hope to see you again in the future! Warm regards, Kayleigh - Guest Services Manager

The first time I visited I was delighted about everything, the room, the breakfast. ( A few years ago.) This last visit was unremarkable, and I felt it was over priced for the quality of the stay. I think the location of the room may make a difference. The first "delightful" time was in the Main house, my last visit was in the annex. Things looked a bit worn, and not as clean as I expected. The breakfast should have had a more freshness quality, and more quantity. However, there's a nice courtyard garden to eat in. The house is located perfectly.

Thank you for your review, Franciine17. We sincerely appreciate the feedback. We thank you for returning, but apologize it wasn't up to your expectations. There is a difference between our main house rooms, as they are all unique and different, and were original rooms in the home. The rooms in the courtyard are more standard hotel rooms, and we are working on getting those rooms updated in the near future to better serve our guests and to amplify the guest experience. We will certainly take your feedback into account when that happens. We hope to see you again in the future! Warm regards, Kayleigh - Guest Services Manager
