Nothing special. The balcony wasn't accessible locked out. Bed was nice view was nice. Location was convenient to walk to anything. Valet parking was required unless you wanted to risk/walk from the street. Its a unique old hotel. They also texted you to death.

I had a fantastic experience at The DeSoto Hotel! From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel welcome. Everyone was friendly and professional, especially the bar staff, who went above and beyond to make the evenings enjoyable. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, providing a great place to relax after exploring the city. The location is unbeatable—just a short walk to City Market and plenty of other attractions, restaurants, and shops nearby. Valet service was quick and efficient, making coming and going stress-free. Overall, it was a great stay, and I’ll definitely be returning next time I’m in Savannah!

This was my first time to Savannah. The hotel was beautiful. All staff encountered were super friendly and professional. The bar and restaurants were excellent. I would definitely stay here again. The only downside is it’s a 15-20 minute walk down to the river, which wasn’t terrible!

The rooms are showing their age, everything is worn. Also, did not get the room that was discibed by the hotel. Tub shower is difficult to maneuver. The staff was extremely friendly.
