- “Hadn't encountered the specific type of Nespresso machine before and there were no instructions” 20

- “the only thing that I really found that was wrong with it is that the light bulb in the bedroom could have been replaced because it was not working but that was not a big deal at all” On camera153:28
- “I'm talking high-end amenities, the kind of bedding that makes you never want to get out of bed, and absolutely breathtaking views of either the vibrant city streets or the serene riverfront.” On camera171:39
- “I do love the full bar setup in the room.” 20

- “The living room felt like a well-appointed apartment, giving us plenty of space to spread out, work from the dining room table, bar or sofa.” 8

- “Room: We had a King Suite facing a street and apartments. We had a King Suite facing a street and apartments. It was generally well appointed with comfortable furnishings.” 20
- “They were probably in hot competition with the new Hilton across the street...but you might find the same scenario at any city Hampton Inn that faces that sort of competition. We were very pleasantly surprised and had a delightful stay (oh...it was a room facing Mobile Bay as well..lovely!)” 6
- “I stayed in a double queen room and especially liked the refrigerator pull-out drawer for the minibar's sparkling water and sodas.” 19
- “The side table near the window lounger cannot be positioned so the table is over the lounger - the lounger is on a platform that does not allow the foot of the table to be slipped under it.” 20

- “My room was a Queen partial river view on the 4th floor. It was a nice size but a little tight with two queen beds.” 20
- “Wooden furniture with cane webbing details gives the rooms a cool and contemporary feel.” 19
- “- The one TV is wall-mounted and not rotatable, so watching from the bed is nice, but watching from other seating in the room is washed out due to the angle.” 20
- “Everything feels so intentional. You get these gorgeous views of the city or the river right from your window.” On camera71:23
- “During our stay at Thompson Savannah, we had the pleasure of experiencing the luxurious Thompson Suite. Located on the top floor, this spacious one-bedroom accommodation offered breathtaking views of the Savannah River.” 8
- “Last visit to Hyatt was in October 2004, and some renovations were done, some were not - it seems as if good location rooms may have been renovated first, since we got a mediocre room with view of nothing (admittedly, room was free with Hyatt "points").” 6

Whether you are here for a quick business trip or a long, relaxing vacation, they have everything from cozy, intimate rooms to these massive, sprawling suites.

- “For a culinary adventure, we experienced Fleeting, featuring fresh, local and seasonal ingredients making the best meal.” 8
- “We dined at Fleeting our first night of our stay at their Chef's Counter and talk about a culinary delight. Our experience will go down as one to remember as each dish was so beautifully presented and full of amazing flavor.” 8
- “Overall, breakfast at the Fleeting restaurant was adequate enough. But compared to other FHR breakfast experiences, this one was a bit disappointing.” 13
- “The main restaurant was excellent but the menu could use some tweaks.” 20
- “Visit during happy hour at the lounge/bar for $5 espresso martinis and great food options.” 4
- “The Bar by Fleeting is the place to be for pre- or post-dinner drinks, while the rooftop Bar Julian (one of the tallest in the city) offers incredible views of Savannah.” 12
- “The French Cruellers are a sinful treat. However, do note that the restaurant can get quite busy at times resulting in long wait times.” 18
- “Sunset drinks and lunch were tasty.” 13
- “Breakfast is now served at the rooftop Bar Julian.” 20
- “The breakfast service was a smidge slow (especially considering there was never more than 3 parties in the whole restaurant), but pleasant and got the job done.” 20
- “Breakfast on the rooftop was a highlight as it allowed us to have a leisurely morning while soaking in the magnificent river views and taking in all of Savannah from a birds-eye view.” 8
- “And you cannot leave without checking out the breakfast and the dining options here. Everything is just top-notch.” On camera71:39
- “Daily breakfast for two, $30 per person, up to two people. They said, "For me, I'll just get a $60 credit." Very generous of them.” On camera32:07
- “Breakfast waitstaff was a bit slow to follow up, delivering a coffee refill several minutes after my cup was empty.” 13
- “Mornings at Thompson Savannah begin with a spectacular breakfast service, providing the perfect fuel for a day of exploring Savannah's famous squares and historic landmarks.” 10

- “d breakfast here the breakfast was really really good the service was topnotch the food was a 10 out of 10” 15

- “The main restaurant was closed when we were there, so we had dinner and drinks at the rooftop bar. Everything we had was excellent.” 20
- “Breakfast was excellent and did have an item rotation - for instance, biscuits and gravy was available on the second morning that took the place of another item I can't recall.” 20
- “At breakfast, roles in the morning didn't appear well defined as it took awhile to get seated on the first morning - there was staff working and walking around the dining room but no one checked the entrance even though only a few tables were actually seated.” 20
- “The breakfast buffet the next morning consisted of sausage, biscuits, French toast, cereal, fresh fruit, fresh juices, sweet rolls, bagels, yogurt (and I'm probably leaving some out) in a lovely dining room...all at no charge.” 6

- “The hotel's rooftop restaurant, Bar Julian, is a gem and seemed to be popular amongst the locals as well.” 18
- “-Breakfast is comped for globalists and was pretty great. The potato/greens bowl is the highlight of the menu. The other items were mostly basic and unmemorable.” 20
- “Breakfast was also a win. Booking through FHR the breakfast benefit was $30 / person for 2 people.” 20
- “Delicious food is available even outside of its evening hours, though. The following day, I enjoyed a hearty breakfast hash of grilled okra, sweet potatoes, and a sunny-side-up egg.” 19
- “Exceptional dining experiences at Bar Julian and Fleeting” 4
- “Other minor things we noticed during dinner: - no spoon for spaghetti made it difficult to eat and waiter was absent” 20
- “The espresso machine was broken in the restaurant, so a cappuccino had to be pulled from the rooftop bar which took a long time (>15 min).” 20
- “A different cocktail menu and delicious fries. We popped in here for pre-dinner drinks and it had a lovely vibe.” 23
Location17 mentions
- “The entire Eastern Wharf area (where the Thompson was built) is all brand new but free trolleys on the side of the hotel run conveniently to the historic areas, maybe a 10-minute walk across the street.” 13
- “The hotel's location puts you right in the center of the action, allowing you to immerse yourself in the local culture while always having a sophisticated retreat to return to at the end of the day.” 10
- “The Hyatt Regency Savannah is finishing up or has just finished a multi million dollar renovation. I love the Hyatt. The location, service, atmosphere, and Hyatt feel make it an excellent choice.” 6
- “Thanks to its convenient Forsyth Park location, you can easily explore the area and the nearby SCAD Museum of Art.” 11
- “Smack in the middle of that neighborhood is the Thompson Savannah, which opened in July 2021 and has become a destination for travelers and locals alike thanks to a prime riverfront location and draws like its lobby restaurant, Fleeting, and the rooftop Bar Julian-which more than a few residents recommended before I took a recent trip.” 16
- “Depending on how you view it, the location of the Thompson Savannah is either a positive or negative. It's roughly a 10 minute walk from the main river front. For us, it provided a welcomed retreat from the heavily touristed riverfront and city center.” 23
- “Overall impression is great, if you can deal with this sub-prime location and doing some walking and/or Ubering your wallet away.” 20
- “The hotel has a terrific location, truly the best on the river with the Westin's a close second, and 2nd only because it is across the river, rather than in the historic district.” 6
- “Convenient location near historic attractions but away from downtown crowds” 4
- “Forgot to say, I'm with GoTravel. I love the Hyatt and it's location.” 6
- “Warning: the location's unimpressive, slightly outside the city center and among soulless apartments, condos, and townhomes.” 13
- “Prefer location of Hampton - although it is only a few blocks away it is up one level from River Street and therefore easier to access historic district.” 6
- “The location was quiet and lovely to walk around at night.” 20
- “-First thing worth mentioning and the only BIG caveat to this wonderful property is the location. If you are not familiar with the Savannah area, you need to first look at the map and make sure this location is okay for you. For me, it was fine, because I like to walk.” 20
- “The Renissance is very nice, but their views aren't that great. The location right at City Market can't be beat.” 6
- “The location itself was ideal - just far enough from the downtown buzz to be peaceful, but still close enough to enjoy the action with a scenic river walk.” 18
- “-First thing worth mentioning and the only BIG caveat to this wonderful property is the location. If you are not familiar with the Savannah area, you need to first look at the map and make sure this location is okay for you.” 20
Bathroom10 mentions · 1 filmed
- “Standing tall in Savannah's Eastern Wharf, the Thompson Savannah offers midcentury modern accommodations fitted with floor-to-ceiling windows, herringbone wood floors and Chromecast streaming devices, plus luxurious bathrooms complete with showers that have rainfall shower heads.” 12
- “The bathroom was designed a bit differently and the shower was a little bigger, but again not much of a difference. I would hardly call this an upgrade if I'm being honest.” 18
- “Not a single hook to hang a towel in the bathroom despite ample empty wall space.” 20
- “The bathroom was sleek and modern, with a walk-in shower that felt luxurious.” 18
- “A low tub shares the same space as the shower - suitable for children but not for a luxe soak.” 20
- “The bathroom was fantastic offering great shower pressure, and throughout our stay I saw housekeeping actively changing and cleaning the communal bath products.” 23
- “- Bathroom has a massive window that lets in light, so you want to keep the door closed, but the sliding door is also very loud and will wake up your partner.” 20
- “the shower is super big the windows are big floor to sealing so the views are amazing” On camera153:50
- “Shower pressure was pretty sad. You have these huge showers here, but not a ton of water.” 20
- “One of the floor tiles in the shower wasn't level with the rest and it was very conspicuous while standing in the shower, easy to stub toe.” 20
Bed & Sleep6 mentions · 1 filmed
- “I *loved* the firmness of the bed. I'd strongly consider staying at another Thompson if other nearby properties only featured Hyatt Grand Beds.” 20
- “From our chic, midcentury modern accommodations, we woke up to stunning views and indulged in a restful night's sleep enveloped in sumptuous softness from the Sferra linens.” 8
- “- A matter of taste, but we found the bed too firm for our liking (you can request a topper which helps).” 20
- “- In our corner room, closing the blackout curtains all the way was borderline impossible (pillar in the way and unstable curtain rods).” 20
- “I'm talking high-end amenities, the kind of bedding that makes you never want to get out of bed, and absolutely breathtaking views of either the vibrant city streets or the serene riverfront.” On camera171:39

- “The hotel claims that you get two free drinks as part of the $35 destination fee, but I found out that it only applied to a cup of beer. Tacky.” 20
- “-One major problem was that they charged me the destination fee for all four nights despite advertising that this was waived for globalists.” 20
- “Drinks I had at the bar were delicious, but overpriced.” 20
- “A great value for such memorable design.” 2
- “I just checked online for my visit in April. Hyatt is $265, Doubletree is $170 and Hampton Inn is $130. No light announcing a ship's passing is worth that big of a price difference.” 6
- “But as noted by others, the prices are reasonable. We did go over our $60 credit, but it was still reasonable.” 20
- “Globalist breakfast is covered in the rooftop restaurant (limited to $25/day per person, which is fine since the food is reasonably priced). The food quality and selection were great for this price point, I especially liked the dutch baby (an eggy pancake).” 20
- “Legrand receptacles and switches in some locations, cheap brown plates and switches in others. No centralized light control and unclear what each switch controlled.” 20
- “Recent travelers called the hotel beautiful and comfortable and appreciated the friendly staff. However, some felt the property was noisy and overpriced.” 12
