Habersham House | Historic Home, Walk To River Street

Stay right in the heart of downtown Savannah at Habersham House, which includes three recently updated and spacious apartments in the historic Paul Hamilton Williams House, built in 1791. This home offers classic charm in an urban setting. Perfect for a large group, Habersham House consists of three separate apartments comprising the entire building. These apartments were professionally decorated with premium guest comfort in mind. The three apartments offer a combined 7 bedrooms, 4 full baths, and 2 half-baths and can sleep up to 14 people. Each apartment is tastefully appointed, and each has it's own living, dining, and kitchen spaces. Habersham 1: This unit features 2 bedrooms and 1.5 baths. On the upper floor, there is a spacious living room with plenty of comfortable seating and a large HDTV over the beautiful fireplace mantle, the dining room with a table that seats 6, a fully equipped kitchen with new appliances. There is a half bath just off the dining room. The lower floor is situated on the ground level and has direct access to parking. This level is the sleeping floor and features a bedroom with a King size bed and HDTV; the second bedroom has a Queen bed and TV. (There is a Queen size inflatable mattress for an additional sleeping option.) The bathroom, located just off the hall, has been completely renovated with all new fixtures, new tile, and subway tiled walk-in shower. The ground level features original brick walls and is cool and shady in the summer, cozy in the winter!

The first bedroom has a king-size bed and TV; the second bedroom has a Queen bed with a TV. The shared hall bathroom has a tub and shower combination. Guests will feel the rich history on this level, which features original brick walls, which also helps to keep the rooms cool in the summer and cozy in the winter.

Good stay!
We stayed here for a long weekend and it was great! Didn’t realize it was three separate apartments in one larger house, but it did the job for us! The host took a little long to respond at times, and I struggled a bit finding the check out instructions.

Getaway with kids and grandkids
The place was very spacious and nice. It was close many great places. We rented the full house (3 apartments that felt like one big house). The beds were very comfortable. Great air conditioning. Very well decorated and laid out. Would stay there again.

Amazing location and space
We stayed here for a long weekend for a girl's trip. There was so much space for 9 of us. The location was prime and in the center of everything so we could walk to all the restaurants, bars, and shopping. The beds were really comfortable and plenty of towels. Would 10/10 recommend again.

60th Birthday in Savannah- Amazing!
A gathering of family & friends in Savannah for my 60th birthday. Amazing Colonial home 1 block from the river front, and within walking distance to most anything else you want to do there. Bonus was being right on the St Patty’s Day Parade route. Within an hour to lots of great golf courses and 20 minutes from the airport. The house has plenty of room to gather, comfortable bedrooms and well appointed kitchens. Would definitely stay again!

I had 7 clients stay there. We met in a different location, this was simply their lodging for the week. It worked perfectly. They were happy and loved that it was easy to walk to restaurants, the river and the historic district squares.

Delightful House, Lots of Stairs
This beautiful, historic house has all the amenities you could want. We used the whole house, but decided that the third floor living room was the best place to gather. It’s large, well-lit, and has the kitchen right there. Each apartment’s kitchen is well kitted out with everything you might need (except food). The paper and soap supplies were more than enough for us during our short stay. If you’re staying longer, you might want to bring extra. The area is on the edge of downtown. There are two parks nearby. The north side leads to the river and River Street. One of our group had friends staying in Savannah, and they were able to walk around the Historic District easily. It’s good to have a car for midtown and areas outside Savannah proper. The four off-street parking places are extremely useful. The stairs: The description of Apartments 1 and 2 says: “The ground level has direct access to the parking area…” There are doors from these apartments to the parking area, but you have to go inside from the 2nd floor and go downstairs to get to those doors to open them. There are many stairs. One family member counted 22 steps from the 3rd floor down to the parking area. So be aware that this house is a little difficult for those who don’t like stairs. If you’re in apartment 1 there’s a staircase up to the LR/DR on floor 2. If you’re in apartment 2, there’s a spiral staircase. The second floor has the communal hallway and the grand staircase that leads to the 3rd floor. Other Caveats: • Some of the lamps are dim. • The ground floor bedrooms have lower ceilings than the rest of the house. However, they have a charm of their own with old brick walls. • There are a lot of businesses near the house. There can be street noise at night. • Bring all the food and condiments you think you’ll need. This is a clean house; there’s nothing left from the people who were there before you. • Bring your own toiletries. There’s bar soap in the bathrooms (as well as a couple of rolls of TP), but that’s it. I would love to rent Habersham House again. The tall ceilings and well-appointed rooms made our stay very pleasant. We all enjoyed being here.

Location and price is NOT worth !
Home was filthy, pre-existing damages, convenient location BUT dumpster divers everywhere and open parking area in an alley. One night a carjacker was caught canvassing our vehicles because the parking was secluded enough not to attract attention, and yet open enough to welcome burglarers and the like. After our stay, we were charged

Lovely house for a lovely weekend!
We rented 2 units of Habersham House for a Bachelorette Party, and it was a huge success. Habersham was an easy walk to River St and a longer hike or short uber/lyft ride away from Forsyth Park or anything in deeper Savannah you may want to see. The house was clean and comfortable for our group of 11. We were split between the upstairs and downstairs apartments, but it was easy to walk between so we could all mingle together.

Exceeded expetations
Stayed in Units 1 & 3 for a Memorial Day weekend bachelorette party. The house and location were perfect. We had just the right amount of space/accommodation for 8 people. Rooms were all clean, well-decorated and spacious-- much larger than I anticipated based on the pictures. While at the house we spent most of our time on the back porches (or sleeping) - but most of the weekend we were out exploring Savannah. The house is right downtown, but in a very quiet little nook. I also love the historical details of the building, and it seems like many of them have been preserved. I believe it's one of the older houses still remaining from 1700s. A lot of the more famous homes in Savannah were built in the early-mid 1800s. There is some literature in Unit 3 that goes over some of the history. One evening as we were coming home there was actually a tour guide pointing out some of the features of the house to a group of about 20 people, so that was neat. My only complaint/comment is there seemed to be something going on with the plumbing which caused the house to smell pretty bad during the day. We're pretty sure the smell was coming from the drains in the sinks. It was mostly gone by nighttime, but would show up again the next day. Since we weren't indoors for the most part during the day it wasn't that big of a deal, but I could see how it would turn some people off. Overall, it was a really great place and I would highly recommend it to groups or families.

Very nice historic home!
Great property and location. We rented both units and it worked out great. Only negative is that the AC gets turned up to 80 between guests. That means your first evening is warm while the AC tries to catch up. It was not unbearable but it was warm.
