29+ Hotels in Savannah Ga Ideal for Bringing the Family (B&B, on the Water, Budget and More)

A weekend in Savannah, GA is one of our favorite, and easiest getaways. Georgia’s oldest city is charming, affordable, historic – and the famous Leopold’s Ice Cream is worth the drive on its own! With a children’s museum, dolphin and boat tours, a state park and a beach nearby, it’s a perfect place to take the family. And there are dozens of kid-friendly accommodations and hotels in Savannah GA.

Whether you want to stay in the historic district and walk to major attractions, bed down with nature in a state park or campground, enjoy a boutique hotel or wake up with the sound of waves at the beach, there are plenty of options to stay in Savannah, GA. Here’s our list of Savannah hotels and other accommodations where the kids are welcome.

My kids were enchanted by the cobblestoned streets and sites of River Street, the fountains and tree-filled squares like Lafayette Square – each with its own personality – and paths and playgrounds at Forsyth Park.

Fortunately, Savannah is a walking city, with many of the downtown attractions close to each other. Here are several downtown Savannah hotels where you can walk to the attractions, restaurants and shops in the historic district. And if you get tired at the end of the day, Savannah has options for free transportation on streetcars, boats and a shuttle.

Living in the landlocked city of Atlanta, when I’m traveling I always look for water views when possible. I’m in luck in Savannah, as several properties have views of the Savannah River to watch the ships of the sea go by. And of course, they are right by Savannah’s famous River Street.

STAY IN A PIECE OF HISTORY AT THESE SAVANNAH BED AND BREAKFASTS THAT WELCOME KIDS

With fragile antiques, expensive furnishings and primarily adult clientele, a bed and breakfast is sometimes the opposite of a kid-friendly place to stay. But there are several charming Savannah accommodations where children are welcome. Several are historic properties, giving you a chance to slip a little United States history lesson into your stay while enjoying southern hospitality.

Insider tip: When booking a reservation, tell the innkeeper the number and ages of children you are traveling with so they can find the best rooms to accommodate your needs. If they are unable to accommodate your family, they will know a place that will work for you.
