Our only complaint was breakfast. We've stayed at a lot of B and B's; typically, the breakfasts are first rate. Here, it was what you'd anticipate at a motel that offers free breakfast. In short, it was lame. Still, the location, the courtyard and the staff were terrific.

The Eliza Thompson House is one of the very finest Inns my wife and I have ever had the pleasure of being a guest in. The street this historic Inn is located on has been voted the most beautiful street in America by travel magazines and the Inn itself is meticulously maintained inside and out. The innkeepers are very pleasant, helpful, and have taken great lengths to create a very welcoming and comfortable environment for their guests. The beautiful parlor room has coffee and cold beverages available at all times, and every evening wine and a large platter full of delicious slices of Italian meats and cheeses are served. The evening is capped off with homemade cakes or pastries at the end of the day. Breakfast is quite excellent and is prepared by James or Deangelis and served in the interior garden courtyard each morning. Our room was beautiful, clean, well-appointed and very comfortable. All of this said, it truly remains the inns staff that made our stay so memorable. We were treated with kindness, concern for our comfort throughout our stay, and a clear willingness by the staff to guide us to the best points of interest and restaurants in Savannah. Our visit to Savannah could not have been more pleasant. We give the Eliza Thompson Inn 5 out of 5 Stars,

The property is conveniently located in an ideal location centrally to many walkable attractions. It is on one of the most beautiful streets in the historic area. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable. The rooms were comfortable and clean. The courtyard was a relaxing retreat throughout the day. The hotel was offering breakfast that was creative and delicious. They also offered an evening wine and cheese social which provided an opportunity to meet with others staying at the property. I would definitely recommend staying at the Eliza Thompson house for your stay in Savannah.
