The 86-room River Street Inn is a mid-range boutique packed with local charm and character. Rooms are classic and lovely, with four-poster beds, hardwood floors, period furniture, and big windows. Some have decorative fireplaces, small balconies, and exposed brick walls. With four solid restaurants on-site, guests don’t have to go far to sample some great Southern cuisine, although the hotel's location in the Historic District allows for easy walking distance to many more eateries, as well as to top attractions and shops. Rates aren’t low for a three-pearl property, but this boutique has some nice touches that add value, including free nightly wine and cheese hours, free Wi-Fi, loaner bikes, and a pleasant fitness center. The Planters Inn in the Historic District offers similar features at slightly lower prices.

Thanks to a 2015 revamp, the upper-middle-range Doubletree Savannah is one of the most elegant and high-end outposts of this typically simple chain. The lobby is swanky and classy, thanks to a combination of contemporary furnishings, rich colors, and traditional architectural details. There's a white-tablecloth restaurant and a relaxed sports bar, plus a pool. Rooms are equally sharp, with attractive gray-scale wall art as well as flat-screen TVs and free Wi-Fi. However, some get so much street noise that earplugs are offered. Freebies include happy hour drinks and chocolate chip cookies. While the stylish atmosphere and great location make this hotel a good choice for a business trip or vacation, those looking for something even trendier plus an excellent restaurant should check out the slightly pricier Andaz Savannah.

The Kehoe House is quaint, historic inn housed in a beautifully restored 1892 mansion. The 13 rooms are all elegant and classic (without feeling fussy or dated), with antique-style wood furniture, decorative fireplaces, hardwood floors, and chandeliers. Most have a large veranda overlooking tree-lined Columbia Square. There are few amenities, but freebies galore (free Wi-Fi, cooked-to-order breakfast), and the location in the Historic District is hard to beat.

After renovations in 2014 and 2015, this former Country Inn & Suites emerged as an airy, stylish hotel that brings Southern hospitality into the 21st century. The traditional style has a contemporary edge, and spacious rooms have signature B Hotels bedding and mini-fridges (but no coffeemakers or microwaves). The hotel is located in a quiet area on the outskirts on the Historic District, but it's still within walking distance of major attractions. Features include an indoor pool and a gym (though they're both small), and the free breakfast includes hot options. Guests may also want to compare rates with the Holiday Inn Express Savannah-Historic District, which has a more central location, bigger pool, and more room amenities.

The Mansion on Forsyth Park is arguably one of the best -- and most special -- hotels in town, with a wonderful art collection, a great cooking school, a solid spa, an outdoor relaxation pool and a popular restaurant on-site. Spacious rooms have eclectic designer-level decor, with vintage furnishings and contemporary touches, plus deep soaking tubs, high-tech amenities, and original artwork on the walls. Those wanting to be in the heart of the tourist action might prefer a property located closer to the riverfront, however.

This upscale boutique hotel has a location right by the river, on the northern edge of the Historic District. It has 75 rooms (though some are small for the price) with outstanding bathrooms and unique high-end decor inspired by the period when 18th-century British maritime settlers landed in Savannah (think: headboards of red velvet and sturdy dark wood, faux fur throws, leather and brass accents). One of the most attractive features of this boutique is the hopping rooftop bar with river views, which is popular with locals and tourists alike. But it lacks some amenities standard in properties of this category (and high price point), such as a pool or a spa.

The Dresser Palmer House is a charming, historic bed and breakfast in an Italianate townhouse that dates back to 1876. The 16 rooms are each decorated differently but share a similar historic feel, many with four-poster beds, antique-style wood furniture, fireplaces, and patios. All rooms include free Wi-Fi, but the inn lacks amenities -- such as a fitness center and a pool -- that larger hotels in the area have. But the location in the Historic District is hard to beat, and for guests who prefer southern hospitality and the residential-style stay of a quaint B&B, this is one of the best bets in the area.

The mid-range Amethyst Inn at Sarah's Garden delivers old-fashioned Southern hospitality in a quiet Victorian house near Forsyth Park in Savannah’s historic district, with four antique-filled rooms that have private bathrooms and ornamental fireplaces, and four one- and two-bedroom suites that offer full kitchens or kitchenettes. The house has an outdoor pool, 19th-century dining and sitting parlors, and two furnished porches, but it lacks modern extras like flat-screen TVs in rooms. The nearby Gastonian, with both contemporary amenities and antiques, may be another option.

Once a 19th-century private residence, the upper-middle-range Eliza Thompson House is a romantic bed and breakfast full of Southern charm. Located on a red-brick street, the hotel is surrounded by oak and magnolia trees, and walking distance to cafes, parks, museums, and eclectic shops. Each of the 25 rooms is unique and features antiques such as leather wingback chairs and ornate armoires from Europe, plus all have flat-screen TVs with DVD players, hairdryers, and bathrobes. This is a great value compared to other inns in Savannah’s Historic District, especially with its free breakfasts, happy hours, and desserts. Travelers looking for a pool should consider the Mansion on Forsyth Park, Autograph Collection, but breakfast isn't included.

The 15-room Savannah Bed and Breakfast Inn was built in 1853 in the southern end of the historical quarter of Savannah and is listed in the local register of Historic Inns. Each room has individual character, but all are decorated in a formal, traditional style with four-poster beds, oriental carpets, and shelves stocked with books. The inn is renovated and bathrooms are modern, but certain period features, like steep, narrow staircases, remain. Breakfast included in the daily rate is excellent and southern-inflected; afternoon tea and evening cookies are also served. Rooms are available in four carriage houses and assorted nearby cottages.
