Not impressed

I was expecting a Southern Mansion with traditional style and beautiful woodwork. There was very modernistic paintings everywhere. The rooms could be nice, if there was not the cheap feel of red velvet. The style was nothing like the mansion that it was built to resemble. Beware that the price may look good until you check out. They will add $12.00 per person for resort fees. The employees were nice.

When your hotel is one of the stops for the local tourist bus you might be a little nervous, but this place is the best place to stay in Savannah. Its just north of a redeveloping area that is somewhat bleakish but just across from the Park. The bell hops know who you are when you arrive. The front desk has your paperwork already prepared (WOW). The restaurant is pricey but worth every penny and TRY O TRY to make arrangements to take the cooking class as part of your stay. If you wait till you get there it will be booked. You will love this place. Press the button.
Great Hotel to get Spoiled

My sister & I stayed at the Mansion for a girls weekend in February. The location was great because it was so quiet. The staff were all very polite, professional and helpful with directions. The hotel's town car was quite convenient, we used it everyday to get to restaurants for both breakfast & dinner. The 700 Drayton Rest.was delicious, and the 700 Cooking class with Chef Darin was a great experience, even if you don't care about cooking. The Old Town Trolley stops right on the corner of the hotel, which made getting around town very easy. The Forsyth Park acorss the street had some re-modeling going on but was still a great park to stroll thru. Oh and don't forget to book a spa appointment, it was one of the most beautiful and relaxing spas we have ever visited.

The Mansion is a beautiful mix of classic architecture and updated styling. We had a premium king room, which was wonderfully comfortable and spacious. Check in was easy and friendly and they had a nice mix playing on the Bose when we entered the room. Every encounter with the staff was nothing but pleasant.
We were completely happy with the location, a little removed from the busier area but still close enough to get there quickly. The hotel also has a complimentary town car to drop off and pick up guests around town. Street parking on Abercorn (just behind the hotel) for our rental car was very easy and convenient. I would also recommend a spa appointment at Poseidon, the massages we had were excellent.
Incredible!
