A Review of Municipal Grand in Savannah | Hotels Above Par

"Occupying the 1961-built First Federal Savings and Loan Association building at the corner of Broughton and Abercorn in the Savannah Historic District, Municipal Grand reimagines its midcentury bones with a modern twist: AAmp Studio redesigned the 44-key hotel for Midnight Auteur (the hospitality brand from the founders of Death & Co., who also launched The Ramble Hotel), and the rooms vary in midcentury character with hardwood floors, rich jewel tones, curved furnishings, dimmable lights, and sleek Zia-tiled bathrooms. Because this is a temple that booze built, cocktail supplies and books by the founders decorate the bar, which functions as a living-room-style hub where guests and locals sip welcome cocktails at check-in, grab brunch (the crispy chicken sando is a menu highlight), or enjoy a martini before dinner; there’s also a chic rooftop with a pool, striped seating, umbrellas, and a bar for city views, plus amenities like in-room dining, valet, a fitness studio, and a year-round rooftop pool, making the overall vibe a booze-forward boutique hangout celebrated for its social atmosphere and strong drinks." - Lindsay Cohn
