Hilton Savannah DeSoto

Frommer's Review

The name still evokes a bit of glamour -- built in 1890, this hotel was for many generations the city's grandest. In 1967, thousands of wedding receptions, Kiwanis meetings, and debutante parties later, the building was demolished and rebuilt in a bland modern format. It's a well-managed commercial hotel, with a major renovation planned for 2007. The guest rooms are conservatively modern and reached after you register in a stone-floored lobby whose decor was partly inspired by an 18th-century Colonial drawing room. Despite the absence of antique charm, many guests like this place for its polite efficiency and modernism.
