Savannah Hotels
For travelers looking for that quintessential Southern city, Savannah, Georgia is the perfect location. Here, visitors can enjoy Southern cooking at its finest, as well as visiting sites around the city that have been around since the mid-19th century. The Cathedral of St. John the Baptist, built in the late 18th century, is the oldest Catholic church in Georgia, while the First African Baptist Church, built in 1861, was the first African-American Baptist church built in North America. Both of these sites are must-see attractions for visitors to Savannah. For more history, the Historic District is filled with historic buildings including interesting architecture. Shoppers will find that River Street is the best place to go with nine blocks of small shops selling everything from pottery to jewelry to folk art. One shop, ShopSCAD, is a store owned and operated by the local Savannah College of Art and Design and has been so popular that satellite stores were opened in Atlanta and Lacoste, France. Nightlife is inviting in Savannah as music wafts through the air. On Johnson Square, local musicians play everything from big band to jazz to Dixieland music. For those looking for something fun, ghost tours are available that take visitors through the city's most haunted places, including the city's famous Bonaventure Cemetery.
