About this property

George Baldwin House Suite

Apartment suite in the George Baldwin mansion. This is for adventurous history lovers who seek an experience unlike a modern renovated home or new hotel room. This is not a luxury property in terms of interior finishes, it is very rustic. There is a Full size bed and a Twin bed. The apartment is mostly original but a few modern conveniences are yours, such as wifi access and a small TV with basic channels. The grocery store is 1 block away, Forsyth Park is 2 blocks away and Brockington Hall is next door. There are 2 flights of stairs to climb to this rental unit.

The George Baldwin House was constructed in 1887. Designed by architect William Gibbons Preston. This was the first commission for Preston who later went on to design many of the most famous and impressive Savannah landmarks such as the Cotton Exchange.

A historic architectural getaway.

We loved this stay because of its architectural significance. This was William Gibbons Preston’s first house in Savannah that he designed and it has great authentic details. So many original details, including several flights of narrow stairs, historic bathroom with orginal (or close to it) fixtures. Kitchen is modern if you need it. The bedroom is palatial and comfortable with its antiques. This was a great location for us close to the park and the historic district.Great restaurants within walking distance.

Weekend getaway

This is a lovely apartment that sits only a block and a half away from Forsyth Park. It's comfortable, convenient, and safe. Moreover, it has a unmistakable charm that lends itself well to the Savannah experience. We highly recommend this spot and would most certainly stay there again!

Nice place

We were able to find street parking within a block - once we parked we didn't use the car for our 3 days in Savannah. Walk 2 blocks to Forsyth Park (and get a Lavender Latte), to take the free DOT bus to get around the historic part of town.The place is cute and historic without being cluttered or kitschy. Communication was great and entrance was easy. I never met the property manager and didn't feel the need to - everything was clear up front.The full-bed was a little smaller than we were expecting, but comfortable. The small bed in the kitchen was great for our 6-year-old. Note: once the small bed goes to bed, you're a bit locked in. From the primary bedroom, the kitchen, bathroom, and exit are all through this space. Hope your 3rd sleeps deeply!I'd be glad to stay here again, and will probably call them directly

The property is hard to access. The owners would come sit out in the courtyard and look at you like you were annoying them when you came in and out. Dont try to speak to them as they turn away.

Historic home in a great neighborhood

If you like walking around historic cities looking at beautiful old homes and then popping into a pub for a refreshment, then this one is for you. Great central location to the main park in the city and an easy stroll to the river and all the fun it has to offer.

Nice weekend trip with our grand daughter for her birthday. Home is in a great location. It was clean. Bath tub with shower from that historic period so it is small. Furniture antique but we wanted that

Pass!

Upon arrival, I could not gain access because the keypad needed batteries. The entry smells like dog poo, mold and cheap air freshener. The tub is gross! The curtain liners are too close to the tub. You will need to leave the curtains open for them not to touch you while bathing. Overall this place needs a deep clean, maintenance, and an exterminator (cockroaches). The location is the only compliment for this property. I do not recommend this location.

As other reviews have mentioned, this is not your typical modern lodging. But it was one of the highlights of our trip to historic Savannah. We toured another historic house and felt it was on caliber with the onewre staying in!

Baldwin Suite

Perfect location to be close to everything. Close to the beautiful Forsyth park and went to the Green Market on Saturday there. All the attractions are a short walk away from this amazing mansion. There’s also a bakery very close you have to try if you stay here. There’s also a bar/restaurant in a mansion at the other end of the street I would recommend. The owners are very nice..

Historical Experience

If you're a history buff and interested in a historical experience, this is the place to stay. It's a genuine throwback to the 1800's with a few modern conveniences. Got a chance to see a stiz, predecessor to a bidet. Host was super nice and accommodating..

Truly wonderful experience

If you really want to embrace the history of Savannah you should stay here. The place itself has so much history you can feel it. We were very comfortable. There's a fan, a/c unit and portable heater. The bed and pillows were great. Kitchen had everything we needed. It just felt great being there. There are about 20 steps which weren't a big deal for us. The owner and the management company are excellent people. I would definitely stay here again.

Very unique

This was a very unique place to stay! If you are looking for a beautiful historic home to stay in this is your place! All with the expectation of it being from the 1800s! This was perfect for our weekend trip. The bedroom was a little warm but after the ac was turned on it was tolerable. That aside we loved the home and would definitely recommend and will rebook in the future! Thanks so much for the great experience!

Savannah fiddlely dee

This spacious, well-appointed studio apartment couldn't have been more charming. It is located in the heart of historic Savannah in an elegant grand dame of a mansion. She shows signs of age, but the owner has embraced that rather than covering it up. We live in a 100+ year old house, and we found the imperfect walls and paint familiar and unpretentious.

About the host

Hosted by Anderson VIP Concierge LLC

Host profile image
I am a local resident and lucky to handle reservations at some of the coolest properties in Downtown Savannah. Please read the entire description on this one! I know the price is very exciting but this antique setting is "not for everyone" and this is a non refundable booking.

Why they chose this property

Please do not book this unit if you are traveling with someone who expects a typical hotel environment.

What makes this property unique

This is a budget priced rental in the most prime area of downtown. This is more of an "experience" rental and is not typical like a hotel. There is a window AC unit Not central air conditioning. The window unit does cool well. There is a space heater for winter (no central heat). This has basics but is definitely more like staying in an antique setting without modern finishes.
