Eliza Thompson House, Historic Inns of Savannah Collection

My daughter had her wedding in Savannah the weekend after Hurricane Helene rolled through. The family and bridal party rented out the Eliza Thompson and it was an amazing choice. The staff is wonderful and made our stay so pleasant and personable. I wish I could remember all the names but I do remember two: Chef Mike and Mo. Chef Mike prepared wonderful breakfasts and was especially cued in to my friends dietary limitations. He would frequently come out from the kitchen to check on the diners. His wait staff are incredibly pleasant and personable. Mo was our housekeeper and her smile and bubbly personality makes a persons day. I can not say enough about the office staff. How kind, efficient and wonderful they made our stay; from our welcome reception in the courtyard to the bridesmaids getting ready in the parlor. As Mother of the Bride I truly appreciate how seamless everything went. My next visit to Savannah will include a stay at the Eliza Thompson.

My 3rd annual visit was very comfortable and pleasant as usual. (Initially when planning my visit this year, in an effort to economize, I had researched extensively and booked a different B&B which was cheaper by $300 for a 4-night stay (not an insignificant amount). HOWEVER, within 15 minutes of my arrival at this “other” B&B,” I unfortunately had to complain about something significantly uncomfortable in my room, and was horrified at the unprofessional response, which didn’t bode at all well for the rest of my stay. I knew then that it was worth paying a bit more to be happy on vacation, and so I called Eliza Thompson to see if they could put me up last minute. They (Jennifer) kindly found me a room that worked for me, and I wound up being so happy to be back to a well-run establishment with a focus on guest satisfaction (ET), instead of a poorly-run establishment (the ‘other’ place) where you might save some money but you will feel it! ET has attractively decorated rooms w comfortable beds, excellent breakfast, and gracious service, including little details like available sunscreen, mosquito repellent, rain ponchos, and umbrellas. Jones St, where the house is situated, is known as the prettiest street in town, which is saying a LOT in one of the country’s prettiest towns. Breakfast is served in a beautiful courtyard by warm and efficient staff. To me, the location is perfect, as it is far enough removed from the hubbub and tackiness of the river front, yet near enough to walk there easily when or if you want to visit there (and if u want some pralines or a riverboat ride). Being further away from the river has its advantages, as it puts you just a couple of blocks north of Forsyth Park and its fountain - one of the iconic landmarks in Savannah and a lovely place to visit, walk, and take photos. Melody, the Innkeeper, has a lovely calm and peaceful vibe, is very kind, and highly focused on guest comfort and satisfaction. It was her wonderful hospitality and memorable activity recommendations upon my first visit 3 years ago that have brought me back for repeated visits, and made me, as a guest, feel appreciated and welcomed. I can’t wait to go back.

The staff of Eliza Thompson House was excellent in every area. From check in to check out everything was top notch. Attentive, friendly staff, everything accomplished with a smile. Excellent breakfast as well. We will definitely return.

The staff was kind and always helpful. The location was great and close to parks, stores and restaurants. Jones street is beautiful and we found out in a tour that this is where “keeping up with the Jones” started! The breakfast every morning was delicious and not your average hotel breakfast. We would definitely stay here again!

Great staff and the absolute best location and street in town! The wine reception is always a great time to meet others and have some good appetizers. And the breakfast is fantastic. The historical building is full of beauty. Highly recommend!

The pillows were the flattest I’ve ever seen or used. Beds very comfy. Room clean. Nice outdoor patio. Had plenty of help with arrival but none with check out. Food was subpar. Parking is a nightmare. No valet. Aliitle street parking maybe available

Our stay was absolutely spectacular. We were greeted with a wine and cheese hour in the parlor upon our arrival, the room was very cute and exactly what my love and I needed for an evening. The breakfast was divine! Beyond it being delicious the staff was attentive and warm and made us feel right a home. Oh and the location is excellent we were able to walk to restaurants and parks. Lovely place in a lovely city ❤️

Everyone that works here were friendly and welcoming. The staff in the kitchen were excellent! As I said friendly, pleasant and polite. The chef came out to meet us and ask if everything was ok and did we need anything. Wonderful young man. The people at the front desk greeted us with open arms.

This amazing bed and breakfast is located on one of the most beautiful streets in the world and is central to spectacular restaurants, historic landmarks, squares/parks, and shopping. You can walk everywhere. Amazingly helpful staff! Awesome happy hour and breakfast. You have to experience it to believe it. Just wow! Thank you!
