Bed and Breakfast Description

"Where Fun Blooms!"

Guests who choose Azalea Inn & Gardens in Savannah's historic district bypass the Savannah hotel scene and rendezvous near Forsyth Park for lighthearted B&B leisure.

The turn-of-the-century mansion (ca. 1889) built by competitive yachtsman and Cotton Exchange executive Walter Coney features southern U.S. cuisine breakfast, courtyard garden pool, private parking, heritage Savannah gardens, and sociable rattan-clad balconies. The romantic Savannah inn is decorated with inspiration from historic Savannah, botanical gardens and Captain Coney.

The eco-friendly inn features renovated baths (2008), water conservation gardens and recyling.

For a romantic getaway vacation or Savannah business travel, the breezy quietude of the Landmark Savannah Historic District’s Huntingdon Street bypasses the bustling Savannah sightseeing scene in favor of off-the-beaten-path relaxed Savannah bed and breakfast lodging -- "Where Fun Blooms!" -- in the colonial Savannah garden district.

Easy-going southern comforts highlight a relaxed version of Savannah’s antebellum charm. Within the 11 guest rooms and throughout the mansion, handsome architectural interiors include original fireplace mantles and ceramics; wainscoting in the dining room, parlor, and elegant staircase; and floor to ceiling windows which open onto the balconies.

Special requests are welcome by the personal innkeeper/owner.
