Never Disappointed
My fiancé and I have stayed here three years in a row now and we have been very pleased with each of the days. The restaurant 1540 is also a must if you are staying at The DeSoto.

It was a great trip for Easter overall! The rooms need more than one trash can and they didn’t have a microwave or refrigerator. Other than that rooms were comfortable and accommodating! All the staff were pleasant and friendly!

Hotel is very nice, staff so friendly, walkable to lots of shopping, restaurants, pubs. Honestly the only thing slightly disappointed in was not having free coffee in lobby. There is a coffe shop but feel the price you are paying for a room would have been nice.

Great location
This was our first time in Savannah and we loved the location. We weren’t comfortable using valet, so we found a parking garage on Liberty 1.5 blocks away for $43/24 hours (other options too- but no in/out privileges).

Desoto Vacation Stay
Room was very clean and comfortable snd the hotel is in a great location. Only complaint is if you hang the tag on your door to forego room service, you are supposed to receive a $10 food credit which we did not get.
