February 21, 2013
My husband and I wanted to do something different for our 20th Anniversary. I came across the idea of a Bed and Breakfast and Savannah was the city of choice. The Azalea Inn stood out from all the choices in the area and we were not disappointed. We loved it!!! The place is beautiful!! Shannon, Teresa and staff made sure we had a great time, from their lunch, dinner and activities suggestions to the delicious treat left in our room. Breakfast was amazing and we loved our room of choice. We will be back for sure. Thank you Azalea Inn for making us feel so welcome.
5 out of 5Weekend at the Azalea Inn and Gardens
December 17, 2012
I found the Azalea on the internet and it appealed to our needs and wants for our first trip to Savannah. We could have picked so many other places, but for some reason, the Azalea stood out from the rest for us. We had no idea it would actually surpass our expectations and it helped cement what would be a superb trip, via a sleeper on Amtrak, to Savannah. From the moment we stepped through the front door, very early in the morning off the train, the warm experience started. We were even able to check into our room at around 9 am in the morning.

December 03, 2012
My husband and I recently stayed at this B&B over the Veteran's day weekend. Not only did this establishment offer rooms for free to military active duty and veterans, but they offered an incredible buffet and delicious breakfast to their guests. This home is warm, inviting, elegant and run by a superb staff. They gave us a map filled with places to go get after dinner drinks and were beyond accommodating to our needs. The rooms were spacious; complete with fireplaces and the beds were from heaven! This experience was delightful and we are so thankful for Azalea Inn's generosity to servicemen. Thank you!

October 23, 2012
My husband I were looking for a place to relax and enjoy a change in the weather. After doing a little research we choose Azalea Inn and Gardens and could not of been happier. The staff is like family. I sorta forgot that I was not at home! The food was outstanding and the wine and appetizer daily reception was warm and inviting. We felt like we had made new friends and we can't wait to return again soon!

October 22, 2012
We hardly get away without our kids so they got together and gave us a gift certificate for Azalea Inn. Best present ever. We definitely felt like guest with friends instead of being just somebody in a motel. The Inn was beautiful and comfortable. Casual yet extremely nice. The room was great and so was the breakfast. We enjoyed meeting the other guest. One guest was a wounded warrior (Azalea Inn donates rooms to our wounded soldiers) and another couple had flown in from Colorado and were married in the gardens of the Inn. Beautiful walk to river street, with many parks along the way. Can't wait to to it again.

The Azalea Inn and Gardens was a wonderful place to stay in Savannah. The staff was great. They assisted in getting reservations for dinner and the tours. The food was exceptional and the evening hour with appetizers was enjoyable. The room was very comfortable and quite. The location made it easy to walk to all attractions in the Historic District.
5 out of 5We got married there and LOVE IT!
September 20, 2012
Let me just put the bottom line up top... Stay at this wonderful bed and breakfast. My wife and I decided to get married in Savannah and did a lot of research before choosing. We settled on the Azalea Inn and what a great choice it was! We were greeted upon check-in by Kolin. He and Kimberly were the two employees that we had daily interaction with. Both of them are the best! Courteous, knowledgeable and willing to do anything within their power to make our stay pleasant. We had a total of 8 people staying there for our wedding and each of us were equally impressed. Everything was taken care of for the wedding from the flowers to the officiant. Kolin even baked our wedding cake! Each morning, we had a delicious breakfast (Kimberly is a chef and Kolin is a pastry chef). In the late afternoon, there was complimentary wine and cheese/crackers. Later on in the evening, there was a freshly baked pastry which was equally delicious. The entire inn is beautiful and the grounds are well kept. I could go on and on but I think you get the point. This place is #1 in our book and we plan on going back next year to celebrate our anniversary,
