My Husband and I stayed there in mid September, 2025 as part of a 5 day vacation to Savannah.
General info - Excellent location, directly between all the main tourist spots we wanted to see. The gardens were beautiful. I have limited mobility and booked it knowing there were no elevators, I called ahead of time to ensure our room was easy for me to access. (Which it seemed to be from what I read at booking) The man with whom I spoke, confirmed we were on the garden level. We got to walk through them every time we came in or left the property, sooooo beautiful. There was a slight mechanical problem in the room that could not be fixed while we were staying there, (it could be and was jury-rigged to work safely for the duration of our stay) we were offered an upgrade due to the "inconvenience" of the issue, (which once it was jury-rigged really was a non-issue) While the upgraded room was even more incredible, (which is saying a lot because I loved our room it was amazing) I could not climb the stairs everyday, I managed it once to see the option and the view from upstairs. If you can do the stairs, do it, the view was spectacular.
The staff - So nice, above and beyond the typical "staff nice" you see at pretty much every hotel. Everyone with whom we spoke was incredible. Enthusiastic about the hotel itself, the decor, the food at the continental breakfast, the cookies and teas mid-afternoon(I'll come back to that below), Savannah, its tourist spots and its history. Dedee in particular (and I apologize if I misspelled her name) was one of the sweetest people I have ever met in my life. She stopped by our table every morning to see if we needed anything, to chat if we were up for it, and generally just to wish us an amazing day. She answered every question my husband and I had, about the food, the hotel and its history. We came to find out she was the one cooking the food at the continental breakfast, everything they served was amazing. We had a question about one of the items they served and she took the time to go back into the kitchen to get the answer for us and bring it to our room so we would have it when we got back at the end of the day. Mind you this was completely above and beyond as it wasn't an allergy type question it was a hey this is really good can you tell me how you made it and what brand kind of a thing. She did and I am looking forward to trying to make it now that we are home. Her spinach croissants were my absolute favorite.
The ghosts - since it's Savannah and so many others have commented about them it seems wrong to leave them out of the review. We saw nothing out of the ordinary, we experienced nothing out of the ordinary. We heard the stories and read them online (when I got home - because I'm a "chicken-puppy'). However the fact that nothing happened did not prevent everyone in Savannah that we met, when finding out where we were staying, from saying..... "Ooooh the Foley House. Did you know it was haunted when you booked it?" Or "ooooh, that's haunted, is that why you stayed there?" The answer to both of those is "It's in Savannah, it is a really old city and a really old building so yeah, there are ghost stories about lots of places there. (We did several ghost tours because I love scary stories). Some people have reported seeing / experiencing things at Foley house. We did not. We for the most part, don't really believe in such things. However that didn't prevent me from bringing an EMF detector and those light up cat ball toy things, turning them on and leaving them around the room as an early warning sign, just in case. Because, as I said before : me ="chicken-puppy". They did not light up at all except when my husband kicked them because I had left them somewhere stupid.
Quick summary - if you want an amazing experience at a quiet hotel in Savannah. I highly highly highly recommend the Foley house. Our time there was truly incredible. All of this was at a reasonable price for the location, service, and ambiance. Great value.
