The hotel manager was extremely helpful and responsive to any questions we had. Area is perfect and the room was very comfortable. Bed was great, the best sleep I’ve had in a long time!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
This is a beautiful property and the room was spotless. Housekeeping came quickly when needed. When leaving I ran into the property manager, I believe his name was Matt, who was just as friendly as housekeeping. Street parking was easy to find and cheap (free overnight).
The Present is a neighborhood boutique hotel, each room is unique in style and decor. First floor rooms and those reached only by steps are an option. Wonderful coffee service area on the second floor. In an historic building so it has those touches, clawfoot tubs, wonderfully creaky floors and large windows. The management is very responsive for any any concerns. Walkable to many restaurants and squares around Savannah.
The property has recently been renovated with new and updated bathrooms. The bed and matress were very comfortable. There are two charming balconies and a patio area.The manager, Mark was very helpful, kind, and hospitable. The next time we visit Savannah, we plan and look forward to staying at the Present Hotel.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Plus side: great location, fluffy towels, comfy bed&linens, several free guest amenities ( dental, shaving, coffee).
Down side: only stairs, high steps - 3 flights, weird decor ( ink-blotched wood floor, plaster half-removed), basic maintenance needed ( rotting single pane sash windows), coffee one floor down with sink faucet not working, no instructions, access keycode buried deep in the "guidebook" link ( fun at 11.30pm and 37F, poorly lit front door), and typical Savannah lethal sidewalks. Funky hotel for youngsters not us seniors.
I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Present Hotel, and I can confidently say it was a fantastic experience! From the moment I arrived, the staff greeted me with warm smiles and friendly service that made me feel right at home.
The rooms are absolutely delightful—cute and eclectic in their decor, which added a unique charm to my stay. It truly felt like stepping into a cozy and stylish retreat.
Additionally, the location couldn't be better. Nestled in the heart of downtown Savannah, it served as the perfect base for exploring the area while still feeling like my own private oasis.
I thoroughly enjoyed my time at the Present Hotel and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable stay in Savannah!
Property was just like the photos. It is in a great location within walking distance of everything. It’s the second time we have stayed at the Present, and would stay there again.
This was a fantastic place to stay. Would recommend it highly to anyone coming to Savannah. Location is great about a 7 minute walk to River Street. The room was modernized, rustic clean bathroom beds were comfortable. I’m very spacious at a California king. Will definitely stay here again or sure.
The room was beautiful and the big windows for natural light was so nice. I felt at home here and would definitely like to come back. Quiet neighborhood, felt so comfortable here, everything was walking distance. Made our trip even better.
The hotel was beautiful for being’s built in the 1800’s. I had a King suite with clawfoot tub. It is conveniently located near everything with in a 10 minute walk.
We absolutely loved the room, the building, and the location. It was delightfully quirky and tastefully styled and the bathroom had clearly been renovated semi-recently. I give 4 stars instead of 5 for two reasons:
1- There was a glowing red exit sign in our room poorly masked by a partial wall that was awfully creepy and hard to ignore throughout the night. If you need it dark to sleep, this was not the room for you. It looked like something between a Stranger Things poster and a gate to the Underworld. Perhaps this was unique to our room.
2- The floors were very dirty when we got there to a point that we had to get creative to not get grime into our sheets at bedtime.
Property was clean and well stocked. Parking on street was easy and convenient but I can see if it was a big holiday weekend how parking could be a problem, but that applies to everywhere in Savannah. It is far enough away from the busy downtown, but still in walking distance. Hotel is beautiful and quaint. Loved the outdoor common area. Would definitely stay again!
The accommodation was excellent, beautiful! Will definitely recommend and revisit,
Everything was clean and very comfortable.
Best place we have stayed at in Savannah.
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay!!!
Location is great, property condition is excellent, area is quiet. Customer service was disappointing.
I contacted the hotel a day in advance to arrange early access to store our luggage, was sent the access code and assured it would work as of 11am on check-in day. We arrived at 2pm and the code did not work. Luckily someone was exiting and let us in. Check-in time was 4pm. We returned at 6:30pm, exhausted and eager to get in to our room. It was not ready! We had to wait another 15 minutes, then the room stunk of cleaning products, and the body wash in the shower was empty. I responded to an email asking how check-in went and requested a discount from Sunday rate to weekday rate (just $40), a request which is still unacknowledged. I was sent another email on check-out day stating they hoped our stay was amazing. Not so much.
So happy we found this place. The room has everything you need to feel at home and is very clean. It’s an easy walk to the riverfront area and a variety of restaurants.
