Savannah Hotel & Transportation

After considering a few places my Aunt and I have decided to take a 5 day vacation to Savannah. I will be arriving June 8th and staying throught the 12th. I am just looking for some suggestions on where to stay. I am not planning on renting a car so, I am hoping to stay in the center of town and at a hotel that has a shuttle service to points of interest. I am looking to spend less then

$200/night. Any other tips or must see places would be greatly appreciated.

Savannah Hotel %26amp; Transportation

Most places on Bay Street, The Hyatt, the Garden Hotel, the Doubletree, there are a few more are all pretty central as is the Desoto hilton. Don%26#39;t wait, that is a busy time of year.

Most sights are within a short walk of the hotels. The entire Historic District is only about a mile square.

Tour a house museum, Julliette Gordon Low Birthplace if you were a girl scout or go to the Telfair Museum and get a combo ticket to tour their Owens/Thomas House.

Mostly just walk around and sit in the squares and enjoy the warm beauty.

There are several riding tours. By trolley or horse carriage. Depending on where you stay, there may be a pick up spot right by your hotel front door!.

Ride around, see what you can, and then take a stroll through the squares at your own pace.

I booked my flight and accomadations. I will be arriving June 1st and staying through the 5th. We will be staying at the Dresser Palmer House.

I definately want to do a day tour and also a nighttime ghost tour. Does anyone have any reccommendations?

Also I was thinking about renting a car and going to tybee island one day. What exactly is there to do there?

Some restaurants I want to check out-

*Mrs. Wilke%26#39;s

*The Crab Shack

*Lady and Son%26#39;s

*Firefly Cafe

*Angel%26#39;s BBQ

Any others you suggest that aren%26#39;t to expensive? I also want to do one really nice dinner.

The other thing I was considering since this a vacation was spending some time at a spa. Any reccomendations?

Thanks in advance for all your help!

The spa at the Westin on the river in Savannah is very nice. The Westin runs a water taxi to River Street so you can get there without having ot rent a car or take a taxi. The Crab Chack is on the way to Tybee so if you rent a car you could stop there on the way to/from Tybee.
