General Information

Named among the "Best of the South" by BedandBreakfast (2008), the setting of Azalea Inn and Gardens is amid the breezy quietude of brick-cobbled Huntingdon Street. Relaxed southern comforts and social sensibilities allure guests seeking sportive or casual Savannah charm for a Savannah, Georgia vacation, special occasion, or romantic getaway. In August 2008, six baths were remodeled with attention to eco-friendly water conservation and re-purposed sink cabinets, 2-person showers and air jet tubs.

The garden district Savannah bed and breakfast mansion of Azalea Inn and Gardens is located in the Landmark Savannah Historic District -- within two walking blocks of Forsyth Park, the city's infamously verdant and captivating central park. The inn's gardens feature indigenous plants and trees, plus low volume irrigation for earth-friendly, water conservation.

The Queen Anne Italianate urban manor (circa 1889), built on garden plots formerly designated for colonial gardening (ca. 1733 Georgia colonization) features the artisan craftsmanship of handsome, original artisan mantles from Savannah's Victorian era. Amenities include New Southern cuisine full breakfast, courtyard garden swimming pool, private parking, 19th century heritage (heirloom plant and water conservation) gardens, sociable rattan rockers under tree canopied balconies, and inviting porch verandas.

Each of the inn's 10 guest rooms features themed décor depicting Savannah's distinguished history, gardens, and fashionable lifestyle of the mansion's original owner -- Captain Walter K. Coney, a beloved mercantile executive. In his youth a Confederate blockade runner, Captain Coney was a competitive yachtsman, Savannah Cotton Exchange member, Georgia Militia Captain, founding member of the Savannah Board of Trade and Savannah Bank & Trust.
