The Perry Lane Hotel, part of Marriott's Autograph Collection, stands at 256 East Perry Lane in the heart of Savannah's celebrated Historic District, Georgia. The hotel occupies a purpose-built structure that reflects Savannah's signature low-country aesthetic — handsome brick facades, wrought-iron detailing, and a scale integrating naturally into the surrounding antebellum streetscape. The address places guests within walking distance of Chippewa Square, the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist, and the network of 22 historic squares that defines Savannah's urban character.
Opened in 2018, the Perry Lane was designed to function as a cultural hub within the Historic District. Its 167 rooms and suites are appointed with original commissioned artwork by Savannah artists, locally sourced materials, and a design palette inspired by Spanish moss, Low Country architecture, and Georgia's coastal landscape. The result is a boutique atmosphere at a larger hotel scale.
Room categories span Perry Rooms — standard king and queen configurations — through Studio Suites, One-Bedroom Suites, and the top-floor Penthouse Suite. All rooms feature locally commissioned artwork, Frette linens, marble bathrooms, and smart room controls. Wayward, the hotel's signature restaurant, delivers modern Low Country cuisine with Savannah-grown ingredients and an extensive natural wine list in a light-filled dining room.
The rooftop pool and bar — among only a handful in Savannah's Historic District — serve cocktails, small plates, and panoramic views over church steeples and Spanish moss-draped oaks. A dedicated spa and fitness centre provide wellness facilities. The hotel is pet-friendly and offers bicycle rentals enabling guests to explore Savannah's car-light squares and riverfront without driving. The Perry Lane's arts programming — rotating exhibitions, artist-in-residence installations, and partnerships with the Savannah College of Art and Design — extends the cultural experience beyond the physical property into Savannah's broader creative community, making it as much a living gallery as a place to stay. This combination of contemporary art credentials, low-country cuisine, and a rooftop pool position the Perry Lane as one of the most distinctive hotels in Georgia.
