A couple of weeks ago I was able to fulfill a longtime desire of experiencing Savannah, Georgia, in all it’s charming glory, for the first time. And honestly, staying at The Gastonian only made the visit that much more special. Located near Forsyth Park, the historic inn is made up of 17 unique and intimate guest rooms, in two adjoining mansions built in 1868. In between wandering the stunning city squares, hopping on romantic carriage rides, snacking on sumptuous pecan pralines, and embarking on hauntingly scary ghost tours, we were pampered back at the B&B with family-styled breakfasts in the mornings, hors d’oeuvres and wine in the afternoons, and desserts and cordials in the evenings. Y’all, if that isn’t the epitome of Southern hospitality and charm . . .

My boyfriend went there about a year ago for work, and said it was the epitome of what you would think the “good ol south” to be. So very stunning, I hope to get there some day soon myself.
The fountain looks very beautiful.
I also like the last photo a lot.

beautiful images! I have such a soft spot for the south, particularly Savannah. so charming.
This is one of our favorite inns in Savannah!
I was just in Savannah and had a private tour of the city with Harriet Meyerhoff of savannahsites.com. She was wonderful and full of southern charm. She even took us to Bonaventure cemetery where Johnny Mercer was buried.
i feel in love with Savannah that I decided to get married there. I adore that city from the quaint streets, moss hanging from the trees, historic homes, waterfront ,people, beach, weather, squares/parks, close to airport and other nearby cities(hilton head) and can’t forget the FOOD!! My dream is to vacation there and then retire and live close to the beach as possible.
Awesome to see pics, I’d never heard of Savannah until yesterday when I started reading midnight in the garden of good and evil.
Love Savannah. There’s no place like it on earth. Glad you had a good time.
I’m so glad you enjoyed Savannah! I live in Georgia and Savannah is one of my favorite places. Also it is my middle name.

Great pics! We are planning a trip to the Gastonian. Would you mind telling me which room you stayed in and what you thoguht of it. We’re trying to decide which would be the best room for our anniversary trip. (Did you happen to see the Carraige House, Garden Room or Julia Scarbrough rooms?) Thanks!
@Lynda I didn’t see the inside of the Carriage House but I’m sure it’s amazing. The Garden room was nice but too dark. And the Julia Scarbrough room was one of my favorites! We stayed in the General Hunter room which was great too. You will love your visit there. Enjoy and Happy Anniversary! xx
Thanks, Erica! Super helpful!
I am the coast
I spent 6 months there while my husband was on sabatical at a marine lab on one of the many islands around Savannah. It was one of the most magical times of my life. I explored the mansions, the antique shops, the restaurants, the art galleries (my most favorite painting is there), the beach. The people are super friendly, the squares and parks are gorgeous and the architecture unforgettable. I want to go back!
Yes Savannah is wonderful and the Gastonian one of the best hotels in the US!
Question, did they comp your trip because you were writing about it in your blog?
You actually make it appear really easy along with your presentation however I find this matter to
be really one thing which I believe I might by no means
understand. It kind of feels too complex and very large for me.
I am looking forward for your next submit, I will try
to get the dangle of it!
The Gastonian Inn is one of the best hotels in Savannah GA, Thanks to blogs and sites like https://www.visitsavannah.com/hotels-motels , I was able to learn about the place and really had a wonderful stay over there!
