Favorite spot in Savannah! We’ve stayed here 3+ times now. Perfect location that’s walkable to downtown and River Street. The staff is always very kind and goes above and beyond. The icing on top? The complimentary donuts are absolutely fantastic.
Stayed here for the experience of a motel and this I would say is probably one of the better ones . Done on a 60s theme it is delightful. I would recommend getting a room on the upper level as it can get noisy in the morning.

Not a fancy place but nice still the same. Clean and close to the river street area. I would stay here again.
Loved our stay at the Thunderbird Inn. The front desk staff was terrific. I loved the moon pies and RC colas that were waiting for us in our room upon check-in. The location was great and walking distance to most of the tourist attractions. I would stay there again.
Nice simple retro hotel that has everything you need for a short stay. Walkable distance from the city market area and River Street. Great place to stay and explore the city.
Staff was great! Towels were plush and the bed was comfortable. Affordable spot with convenient location for Savannah. The door stuck every time I tried to open it was the only annoying part of the stay.
We love Savannah in the spring - we also love the Thunder bird Inn and so glad it continues to be up and running.
Room was clean, location perfect, price point - right on!
