What guests think

At River Street Inn, guests consistently praise the central riverfront location, historic charm with brick-and-beam character, and welcoming staff, with many enjoying river-view balconies and a popular afternoon manager's reception with complimentary drinks and snacks.

Common trade-offs include street and bar noise, thin walls, occasional musty odors or humidity, and maintenance issues such as weak water pressure or aging fixtures. Cleanliness is often good but reports of mold in showers, dust, and inconsistent housekeeping appear in several reviews. Parking is convenient but costly via valet, and a few guests cited overbooking, billing add-ons, or slow responses to requests. Expect a characterful, walkable stay with lively surroundings and standout location.

The room was clean and comfortable. The neighborhood is walkable, felt safe, has lots of touristy shops and a variety of good restaurants. There is a nice manager’s reception each afternoon with beverages, snacks and charcuterie. Valet parking is convenient but pricey ($50/day). I’d recommend River Street Inn to friends and family if they visit Savannah.

When we arrived at the valet station, three attendants were standing there and were very friendly but no one offered to help my daughter and I with all of our bags. Then they handed me a ticket and when I said thank you while carrying a bunch of bags one mumbled under their breath about a tip. Um no. I will tip at checkout of course but this annoyed me. The amount of perfume/scent used in the towels gave me a headache. Our room was on the opposite side so we didn’t have a river view but faced the street without blackout curtains. The hotel gym was small and the bike and one of the treadmills were not working. We only stayed one night so maybe if we were staying longer it would be worth complaining. The check-in was friendly and the location of the hotel was great. We walked everywhere.

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.

Upon check in we were offered complimentary champagne - a nice touch. The complimentary managers afternoon reception provided nice drinks and snacks. We enjoyed a tasty cooked to order breakfast in the restaurant & the speakeasy drinks were awesome. We enjoyed Savannah and we would stay again at the River Street Inn.

Bradley at the front desk was wonderful! BUT, After our room not being available to check into until after 4PM as indicated on the website, our room was not clean, and hadn't been cleaned recently, definitely not same day. There were hairs on the floor, and countertops that had not been wiped, and the floor in the bathroom had not been mopped at all, sticky hairspray residue and the feet of the furniture pieces are covered in dust. Unfortunately, we didn't have time to figure out if they had another room available, so we stayed. The sheets seemed clean, so we unpacked. But very disappointing considering the price we paid for a 2 night stay.

The property was updated, had great staff and felt safe. We were on the top floor overlooking river street. On the weekends, it was a little noisy with vehicles and people having a good time, but nothing we did not expect. Walkable to Broughton street for shopping, restaurant spots and site seeing near the area. The hotel was a bit humid and felt damp, as was our room, had a little black mold in the shower (I assume due to the humidity), even with the AC all the way down, that would have been my only complaint! Otherwise a great experience!

Location is prime, walkable. Staff need to do better communicating during check-in. One of our rooms were ready until after 4pm. The little events around the hotel are nice but we did not use them.

By far the worst hotel we have ever stayed in. Checked in at 1:18pm. Got to the room and the carpet was wet and it smelled of mold. Requested a room change. We were asked to leave the room we checked into. Then waited in the lobby for two hours on a room. Finally got in to the new room. It was never cleaned. Had mold all over the shower. Told front desk and no one ever cleaned it. The rooms smell. Nothing has been kept up. Some of the staff (not all) were incredibly rude. The car valet service was down. Had to hand a physical ticket and wait for our car. Took an hour for them to get it Saturday. Rooms. Service. Location. Price. Food. Literally everything about this hotel is bad.

Perfect except the signs for directions to our room were inaccurate, causing my elderly mother to walk way more than needed. I alerted the front desk manager and her response was "yeah I'm not sure why that is." Only other gripe would be the Valet manager seems to have an attitude and played games with returning my car keys for a tip. I normally tip after the service is complete n order to reflect the service received.Call me crazy. Overall a great hotel in the center of the action. Highly recommend!!!

First time to Savannah and we’re ready to come back. We stayed on the riverfront in a historic hotel right before a big weekend. Had we been able to book it for three days? We might still be there, but in the meantime, went ahead and booked a carriage house. Staff was amazing from the valet parking to the hospitality extraordinaire. I wish I would’ve gotten the ladies name. She gave us such a great welcome. And a woman the next day at the lobby desk was so very helpful in pointing out where Lucas theater was and how walkable the area was.. we will be returning !
