Beautiful, comfortable, clean historic INN to stay at in Savannah. Walkable by 15 minutes to most desired locations. We stayed in the Dahlia room and it was spectacular! We had a lovely sitting area with an outdoor porch when it wasn’t raining and the bed was very very comfortable. Beware that breakfast is not served till 9 AM which was a little late for us however it was delicious. The innkeeper was wonderful and very friendly. This is a lovely place to say if you want to enjoy Savannah.

Loved the home and the woman that ran the place (sorry, forgot her name). The bathroom, honestly, was awesome. Most older places you stay have horrible bathrooms. The bed was very comfortable. The breakfast the next day was homemade and delicious. The property itself is absolutely stunning and right in the mix of things. My two main complaints are (1) super-expensive; and (2) stairs, stairs, and more stairs. Both to be expected, however. Would definitely go back.

Chemise was very welcoming and informative regarding Savannah and the areas we should visit. The property was charming. We stayed in the Ivy room and the shower was incredible and the bed comfortable. The only thing I would suggest is full length curtains that make up for the gaps the shades/blinds leave. Otherwise a very beautiful property. Thank you.

We couldn’t resist this property from the first time we saw the pictures. It was exactly as described and we felt like we were living 200+ years ago but with modern conveniences. It was so charming and we loved our stay. The breakfast and afternoon nibbles were so delicious, hats off to the chef!! Very conveniently located and we would definitely come back!

OH MY GOODNESS! EXCELLENT! EXCELLENT!
SPECTACULAR!
The yard and home are beautiful. I received a very warm welcome from Chemise. She served delicious breakfasts in the dining room every morning and was always available if I needed anything. Outside there are garden areas with chairs and tables. It was wonderful to sit and relax while hearing their water fountains.
Amethyst Garden Inn is in a great neighborhood.
Easy to walk to restaurants, shops and tourist spots. The very elegant room I stayed in was gorgeous. I felt like a Queen❣️

This house is a purple beauty. The manager Chemise went to a lot of effort to make things special for us. She explained her connection to the house and gave us the history, prepared a wonderful breakfast every morning and helped us get oriented with things to do in Savannah.
The property is lovely and quiet - the owner was on site doing maintenance while we were there; but everything was in perfect order in our room. The decor is comfortable yet elegant. We enjoyed the character in the house. The property is secured with locked gates, and the area is safe.
For us it was convenient to park our car and walk all weekend - we never needed to drive until our trip over to Tybee Island.

The lady running the inn was very friendly and helpful, however for the price I expected a little more. The sink was not in the bathroom. No thermostat to control heat or cold. It looks as if a lot of shortcuts were done, like black tape on a light switch, two doorknobs but only one worked. My compliments to the photographer that took pictures of the rooms, they did a great job.
