A wonderful Bed and Breakfast, beautifully decorated, quiet rooms, and comfortable beds. Our host, Doc (Dr. Albert Hall) was gracious and had wonderful suggestions and tips for exploring Savannah. Doc and his staff went above and beyond to provided exceptional service. Breakfast was a 5 star experience. Parking was available, and the B&B’s location is perfectly situated in the historic district so we never needed the car and were able to walk everywhere. A wonderful experience all around.

Doc was friendly, courteous and an interesting man to speak with Plenty of knowledge of the area to share.
The property was beautiful and spacious. Breakfast times set to fit with your schedule Having SCAD students helping with service was also great. Can’t say enough positives about the stay we had at the Williams House.

We enjoyed a wonderful stay at Stephan Williams House. Beautiful property, great breakfast, spacious room, the whole house is full of incredible antiques and our host, Doc, was charming and knowledgeable. The B&B is in a perfect location, easy walking distance to most Savannah attractions. Bed was very comfortable with great linens. Really quiet and some nice outdoor spaces for a pre-dinner glass of wine and game of backgammon. Highly recommended.

This property is across the street from the Civic Center and easily walkable to all attractions and restaurants. Doc is an excellent Host and very knowledgeable about Savannah. His staff is equally wonderful! The breakfast each morning was delicious and all Savannah favorites. This is a great place to stay for adults (due to all the breakables in this Historic House). ;) I will definitely stay here again.

It was a wonderful stay at the Stephen William House. The building and the furnishings are extraordinary. Doc, Christine, and Alice were gracious hosts. Doc regaled us with local lore and was a gracious host and conversationalist during the morning breakfast (every one of which was both delicious and had a story associated with it). My wife and I have stayed at B&B’s all over the world and this one would likely be at the top.

The best BnB there is. The house is from 1834 and is beautifully decorated. The proprietor has lived in Savannah almost his whole life and has great stories. The breakfast they serve are family recipes and even the coffee pot has a story. I have been back twice this year and will definitely be going back.

Doc was a superb host and a true Savannah gentleman. Not only did he serve us historically accurate delicious recipes each morning for breakfast, he shared with us the stories of each recipe. He greeted us each by our first names every morning. In fact, he greeted us at arrival by our first names as if we were old friends. He told us the not to be missed places we should visit and the restaurants we should try. It was just a wonderful experience all around.
