"The small Planters Inn is certainly an authentic way to experience the Historic District -- the inn's 60 rooms are decidedly Savannah, with details such as four-poster beds and dark wood accents."

"A formal, welcoming, hotel rather than a B&B, in a lovely position on Reynolds Square in the historic district."

"Numerous period-style touches in the 60 rooms (including one suite) range from four-poster rice beds to fireplaces."
