Historic Elegance Just Steps from Savannah's Riverfront Sounds

This charming, boutique hotel brings 19th-century character to your concert weekend. East Bay Inn Historic Inns of Savannah Collection sits right across from River Street in the heart of Savannah’s historic district. Built in 1852, the inn mixes vintage soul with modern comforts like free WiFi, plush robes, and complimentary turndown service. With cozy seating areas and elegant decor in every room, it’s a peaceful retreat after a night of music.

Why Concert-goers love it

With City Market and live music spots less than half a mile away, East Bay Inn is a great base for catching shows on foot. The area is lively but not rowdy—perfect if you want to be close to the buzz without sacrificing sleep. The 24-hour front desk and easy walkability make late-night returns a breeze. If you're arriving late, the flexible 4:00 PM check-in and 11:00 AM checkout give you time to settle in or recover the next morning.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends enjoying a weekend of music and sightseeing
• Solo travelers chasing a bucket-list show in a walkable city
• Couples looking for a romantic, music-filled getaway
• Fans wanting quiet after a high-energy concert
• Budget-conscious music lovers who want charm and value

Food and Drink Options

Tandem Coffee & Spirits, the on-site café, offers light breakfast, coffee, tapas, and signature cocktails—perfect for pre-show bites or a post-concert unwind. While there’s no 24/7 room service, the downtown location means plenty of late-night eateries are just a short walk away. Complimentary bottled water is available at the front desk (hydration matters after dancing all night!).

Nightlife Options

While there's no live music in the hotel itself, you're just minutes from Savannah’s vibrant nightlife. From jazz lounges to rooftop bars along River Street, there’s something for every vibe. The on-site bar is a mellow option for craft cocktails before or after the show.

What People Say

Guests love the friendly staff, unique historic charm, and unbeatable location. Many highlight how quiet the rooms are despite the central setting. Reviewers also appreciate the comfortable beds and thoughtful details like bathrobes and turndown service.

Areas for Improvement

Some reviewers note that the historic building means slightly creaky floors or limited natural light in some rooms. But most say the charm far outweighs any quirks. If you're used to ultra-modern hotels, just remember: this one's all about old-school character.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers wanting cozy comfort, walkability, and a dash of historic charm, East Bay Inn is a standout choice in Savannah.
