Ballastone Inn, Savannah

I have very fond memories of my stay at the Ballastone Inn. The breakfasts were great and the staff was wonderful...very professional and endlessly helpful. The Inn is beautifully decorated in opulent detail and is located on one of the most beautiful streets in the heart of historic Savanah. Staying there adds to the essense of mystery and romance that is Savanah. It's pricey but worth it for a splurge or a special occasion. I highly recommend it.

Even though we were able to only stay one night, we were treated like royalty. The staff was exceptionally wonderful ~ and the food was truly magnificent. They graciously gave us the recipes for two of our favorites. It was the best part of our vacation. Thank you so much to all who made it so special. Tom & Glynda from San Antonio, Texas

We chose the Ballastone for our 25th anniversary trip and were not disappointed. The food and service were excellent and the staff was more than accomodating. They were all very personable and would visit with you if you wished or leave you to your privacy. They were more than happy to help with your plans, make reservations or recommendations and follow through to make sure everything happened the way it was planned. The inn is within walking distance of practically anything in the historic district and also has some limited parking, which was very convenient. They even allowed us to leave our car parked for several hours after we had checked out. We've stayed in B& B's for over 20 years and this one ranks at the top of our list. It could not have been better.We'll be back.

This was truley a wonderful weekend experience. have never been so pampered and waited on. cannot wait to return. would highly recommend it. the room we stayed in was heaven.

My husband took me here for my 21st birthday last weekend. If we ever plan to stay in Savannah again we will definitly stay there again.. The staff was very friendly and they answered every question we had about the place and let us walk in any room that had the door opened. The place is beautiful!!! We both recommend anybody who is planning to stay in Savannah to check in the Ballastone Inn... You would not be disappointed... Thank You Ballaststone Inn!!!

We spent a weekend at the Ballastone Inn and had a pampered stay. The room was elegant and the staff so helpful and friendly. We enjoyed our delicious meals. The location was perfect. We will go back again!

We had stayed at the Mandarin Oriental in Miami for a week then went on to the Ballastone for what was to be 5 days. We stayed 2. The breakfast left us hungry, the bathrooms were cheap looking, not old but cheap. The prices vary wildly from what we experienced. We saw people walk in and negotiate a price much less than what we paid which was a bit unsettling. There is limited parking in an alley, 6 or so spaces, that my wife wanted nothing to do with so we ended up on the street with metered parking. The Inn does not really have accomodations for 4 to sit and eat. We traveled with another couple and had to eat at seperate tables. It is on a fairly busy street with more road noise than we expected. This is a decent Inn but in our opinion it is Ritz prices with a Holiday Inn experience

We had a laptop taken from our room and were treated very poorly by the Ballastone employees when we reported it to the police. Old inns have good ole metal keys and not magentic keys. This makes it easy for someone to enter your room. Not only was the Inn expensive but the loss of an apple laptop makes it unaffordable.

Keep your money. The Ballastone's advertised top notch service has definitely been exaggerated. Half of the staff doesn't seem to know what they're doing; whereas, the other half seem very disgruntled. The concierge was the one who seemed to run the show; he was incredibly helpful throughout my stay. The menu was "pseudo-healthy" but tasteless. The silverware placed on my table was filthy. I could enjoy a similar experience for far less than what I paid for.

not only was the air conditioning broken on a hot savannah summer night, the "hors doeuvres" were straight out of a costco package. owners haughty and condescenfing ( can't figure out why ) and "breakfast" was garbage at best - served tepid and took far too long. would it have been a decent deal for $150? maybe, but we paid $400. ****also, check gratuity policy - there are signs in the rooms asking that you leave gratuity on your final bill, so all staff 'can be treated fairly'. well, fairly at the ballastone offers a new twist - the owners keep a big portion of the tips for themselves "for overhead and management expenses". huh??????? save your money - stay somewhere else. rotten hotel for the money, miserable owners ( i think it was a husband and wife, but wife could have passed for a man ). horrible.
