Property doesn't feel like it was orginally an ES. The mall area is not the most attractive. While the rooms are suites they are fairly small, but not bad. The buffet breakfast is fine with made to order omelettes. The afternoon snacks not so hot. It's about 15 minutes from St. Simons. Probably the nicest property in the area.

Savannah Hilton vs Doubletree?
I'll be attending a weekend conferance in Savannah this November. Will appreciate current stay information for Doubletree vs Hilton vs Mulberry Inn. Rates seem comparative at about 179-199.

Savannah Hampton Historic District-Bay St. or MLK Blvd.??
We'll be in Savannah in March (after the St. Patrick's Day celebration) and want to stay in the historic district. I noticed there are 2 Hamptons listed as being in the historic district. One is on Bay Street and the other is an Inn and Suites on MLK Blvd. Any input or advice on which of these 2 properties is better for a Diamond 3 night stay would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I believe that the Bay St location is in the center of the historic district. I know that MLK is at the far edge.
IIRC, the Bay St location is in an old historic building and is a very cool Hampton.

Bay St. is a very central location and a nice Hampton Inn in a large old looking brick building. They did not chagre me for parking as Gold either and breakfast has a few additional items than your normal Hampton.

For the Hilton, walk out of the HI and turn Left and walk a # of blocks and then turn right. Its about the same time wise to either the Hilton or DT. Both are on the edge of the Historic District, but within a few mins walk. I didnt stay at either the Hil or the DT, but checked them both out and prefeered the DT due to its being so close to the River area.
BTW the Hilton is on the same side of the River as the DT and HI on Bay st

I have stayed at the ES in Brunswick quite a few times. It is an average ES, it is clean and though it is in the mall it is in an area that is the most developed in the county. Most of the restaurant and other shopping spots are closeby. I believe you will be comfortable here and have no problems.

I would agree that the ES is adequate. Not very near the beach, but close to several good restaurants outparcels in the mall parking lot. Also the breakfast is good (and free) as well as a few drinks in the evening. BUT, if I were planning to spend most of my time in a vacation environment, I would go with the Hampton @ St Simons

1. Hampton Inn Savannah-Historic district
2. Hampton Inn and Suites Savannah Historic district
3. Hilton Garden Inn Savannah Historic district
4. Doubletree Hotel Historic Savannah
would you stay for the weekend? The rates are all about the same but where will I get the best value for my buck?
Thanks

I would not stay at Doubletree.
I cant remember whether the Hampton or HI&S is the closest to the river. The historic property near the river (about 2 blocks away-on Ablecorn???---Cant look, website is down) is a cool hotel

I'd second that. We had a one-night stay there in May. The room was ok, but we found the service to be somewhat substandard. Location is on the edge of the historic district on a busy street. The HGI and HI are also on the same street close to the DB. Didn't get a chance to look at the HI&S, but sounds like it might be in a better area.
