Doubletree by Hilton Savannah Historic District

Staff was welcoming. DO NOT GET ROOM 224! Even after a few drinks the trucks and motorcycles will keep you up all night. They have a sound machine but that just adds to the mess. Location is perfect and close to everything riverfront and the market place. But if you want a restful night of sleep get an inside room. Valet folks were extremely helpful!

The hotel is conveniently located in the historic downtown area within walking distance of the market and shops. The valet was great and so was the front desk. They offered us a trolly to put out luggage in and then take it up ourselves, which is the first time I’ve had to do in a hotel. Our room was next to the conference rooms and we could hear their talks and applause and even the chairs being moved afterwards.
The noises from outside were very loud in the room to the point that we could hear a could arguing outside and I can even tell you why they broke up.
I loved the location, unfortunately I was not able to sleep well during our stay :(thus the 3 star review.

If you are looking for a hotel with character, and not a typical Hilton chain, then this is the place. Lovely hotel redone in the heart of Savannah with friendly staff to boot. To seal the deal they have nightly complimentary drinks to tempt you, and we were lucky to experience a perfect drink that is a speciality of theirs. Although if you are looking for a quiet spot, this may not be the spot, but who would get a hotel in the heart of the city if you need that… there are always ear plugs if needed!!!

The hotel is lovely. The front desk staff were courteous, polite, and super helpful. The valet parking personnel were totally sweet and awesome! I stayed for only one night at the end of several day trip to the area and, for the most part, the stay was great. I had many choices when deciding where to stay in Savannah and chose The Doubletree because I have stayed at Doubletree hotels in other cities and because I joined their rewards program. Imagine my surprise when I arrived and was informed of the new policy (which took effect this month) that persons booking through a third party do not get rewards points! I didn’t even get free wifi! That really sucked. It left me with a sour feeling about staying there. The location is nice with a great view of the bridge, but I could have stayed at a comparable hotel on the waterfront! There are two other hotels on the other two corners of the street, either of which had the same views and may or may not have given me no extras. No rewards points and no wifi because I booked through a third party was like a cloud which hung over the stay. Now that I know this, I will keep it in mind when booking in the future. I stayed at a Doubletree in TX, a few months ago, which was also booked through a third party (package deals are easier for this consumer) and I received my rewards points. I’m not sure if most people prefer to book flights, hotels, and rentals separately, but removing the rewards when it’s done seems like a bad idea.

Was really impressed with this place! It is in the heart of the action in Savannah – close to everything! Very clean and well decorated. The valet was very friendly and fast, especially for as busy as they were. The rooms were spacious and clean. The food at the breakfast buffet was nice.
Pros:
Close to EVERYTHING!
Very well decorated.
Incredibly friendly staff.
Nice touch with the cookie at check-​in.
Cons:
You have to pay $ 25 per day to park your car.
The food was rather expensive – the breakfast buffet is $ 17 and although good, not worth that much money.

Some of you that follow me here on Unilocal may know that my home away from home in Savannah used to be the Hilton Desoto. Well, that is no longer the case. From the moment I was met by the valet, to the warm chocolate chip cookie at the front desk, to the magnificent view out my room’s window, I was realized I had found my new Savannah home. As a Hilton Honors member, I was treated like family throughout my stay.
The room was amazing, comfortable, and relaxing after a long work day. The bathroom was a bit small for the price point, but it was very clean (which is extremely important for me) and upgraded with nice granite counter tops, tiled shower and huge backlit mirror.
But enough about the boring stuff, lets get to the niddy-​griddy: The people! As I mentioned before, everyone from the valet to the front desk personnel to the bartender and finally Shelby, the Food and Beverage Manager, were all warm and inviting people. They laughed at my bad jokes, gave recommendations for drinks on and off the menu; and did I mention the warmed chocolate chip cookie? If you were unfamiliar with Doubletrees you may not have realized there is a restaurant within the hotel. That would be a shame. Though it is somewhat hidden and tucked away, it does exist and I highly recommend it.
The food was awesome, filling and fairly priced. As for the drinks, I love a good Old Fashion. It is surprisingly difficult to find a bartender that can make them good… consistently. Well, Julie (I believe her name is) can make a mean Old Fashion!
Moving back to the room now for some extras just to make the stay more comfortable. On the desk I found ear plugs (individually wrapped of course), a white noise maker and the lamps had USB plugs to charge your devices. They literally thought of everything to make you feel like you are home.
I only have one negative comment: The air conditioner. I like the room to be a bit cool when I sleep. Well every time the A/​C would kick on it sounded like a diesel engine cranking up. If it weren’t for that, I would have given all 5 stars.

Great hotel in all, and in a great place in the middle of everything in Savannah. The interior is really elegant and looks amazing. They dont really tell you the extra fee’s and charges at check in which would have been nice.

The buffet for Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year evening are awesome. The food, beverages, and the yummy desert coupled with the fabulous service helped me make great memories with my family and friends.

Very nice stay! For $ 117/​night the room was extremely spacious with 2 queen size (super comfy!) beds. I received great customer service. Best part: walking distance to River Street! The only con is the valet parking that you HAVE to do if you want to park at the hotel. The parking was $ 25.

Amazing hotel! Everything from check in to check out was wonderful. Friendly staff. The valets always called us cabs when needed. The minute you walk into the doors it smells wonderful. The room was very clean and the beds are extremely comfortable. Thanks for a wonderful stay! I wouldn’t stay anywhere else in Savannah.

This hotel is in a great location and close to City Market as well as River St. Very beautifully decorated and very clean. All the staff were kind and courteous.
The only complaint I have is the overwhelming air freshener in the lobby. Because of my sensitivity to perfumes I was unable to sit in the lobby or bar to enjoy more of the hotel.

GOOD:
— Check in cookie. Obviously needs to be listed first.
— Friendly valet.
— Charming, hilarious bartender. He was just great. And dealt with my beer snobbery well.
— Front desk agents. Very nice and accommodating! Chatted with one about what it’s like to work in hotel guest services. Nice nostalgic moment!
— Shampoo.
— Earplugs. You will need them.
— Location. Close to River Street’s shops/​restaurants/​bars.
EHH:
— Noise. Good god, noise. After the first night, we changed rooms. And still, there was noise.
— Slow internet that needed to be refreshed each day. But hey, it was free.
— I got hurt (face-​planted on River Street), rushed back to the room to clean myself up, and the temp was reset to 60 degrees in there. Not cool, housekeeping!
Solid hotel. I’d stay there again if I ever go back to Savannah.
And I need to go back to Savannah.

This place is incredible. Awesome views of the historic district and everything is in perfect walking distance. The hotel itself is gorgeous and well kept. The entire staff is super friendly and goes out of their way to make you feel welcome. Two people who deserve extra kudos are Constance and Penny at the front desk. First impressions are important and the two of them went above and beyond the call of duty to ensure the beginning of our trip was fantastic. Thank you so much Constance and Penny for your great customer service! Because of your service I look forward to returning here again.

The beds are good and the room is large.
It’s not the best doubletree but it’s not the worst. Parking is valet and expensive, breakfast is not really anything special and the «gym» is smaller than the hotel room. We only stayed as a pit stop, so the location is great (near the highway). There’s fresh coffee and tea station in the lobby which is nice. Service was good.

The hotel and accommodations are all excellent. We had a wonderful time staying here but before you make make a reservation be aware of many hidden fees.
Vallet parking = $ 25 a night
Wifi — $ 5 a day. (There is a basic free WiFi that comes with the room but the Internet speeds compare to that which were standard in the mid 90’s)
Security Deposit — $ 50 per night. This will be returned after your stay if nothing was damaged within the room but it is billed to you on check in.
They do serve breakfast but it does not come with the room.
Other than the hidden fees this hotel has been excellent. The rooms are well cept and modern. The service is very quick and everyone is friendly.

This hotel is located in the beginning of Bay street and is fairly convenient to most places.
The rooms are a very nice size with new bathrooms, a nice work area/​desk and a comfortable bed.
The only drawback for some people is that it has a full shower instead of a tub, works for me but probably not for everybody.

This hotel is amazing! They booked a very clean and spacious room while we were driving into town. We booked a whirlpool tub, which is a MUST after a long day! The restaurant was the only negative. Room service stops at 9 and took FOREVER. Then, the shrimp scampi linguine came without any noodles! And also without bread, which was on the menu. The pork chop dinner was delicious.
Aside from the restaurant, we would give the hotel staff, room appointment and cleanliness 5 stars. The concierge was also knowledgeable and friendly! Take the trolley tour that hotel recommends! We would definitely stay here again & hope the kitchen staff is better equipped for us next time.

Super Hotel in einer top zentralen Lage. Das Hotel hat fast einen Standard, der an 4 Sterne heranreicht ! Sehr angenehm ist auch der Valet Service mit den gut gelaunten Angestellten !

How do I know DoubleTree made a deep impression on me? Because every time I start fantasizing about vacation my first thought is, «I wonder if they have a DoubleTree there?»
It’s rare on vacation to have SPECIAL MOMENTS occur *IN* the hotel as well as *OUT.* The hotel wasn’t just the designated, «This is where we sleep and get dressed» spot, we actually CREATED memories that actually MADE the vacation even better!
We only paid $ 82 a NIGHT for a DoubleTree Hilton Hotel and we couldn’t believe what a STEAL that price was! It was even cheaper than the Holiday Inn Express! It was our mantra for the entire vacation. «Can you believe this is $ 82 a night?»
PROS:
— The beds felt like marshmallows wrapped in sheets! They were outrageously soft! I was tempted to investigate what kind of mattress they used to buy myself at home!
— We must have been in Get Smart’s «Cone of Silence» because I didn’t hear a peep from the street below, the interior hallway, the neighboring guests, or even the staff!
— One of the highlights of vacation that didn’t cost us a dime was using the lemon scented shampoo to use as makeshift bu
