PROOF & PROVISION

Immerse yourself in a low-lit, indoor-outdoor hideaway dedicated to house-charred cocktails and scratch-cooked plates. Here, whiskey ages in white oak while cast-iron skillets turn out slow-rendered BBQ pork and sharp pimento cheese. Dinner at this gastropub is casual, unhurried, and deeply rooted in Savannah’s history, creating a perfect blend of classic and modern flavors.

Best Trip Yet!

“We have always loved the DeSoto, and this was our best trip yet! We watched the Savannah (USA 250) fireworks from our beautiful 9th floor king corner room /balcony. Fun time with lots of great folks at the pool as well. Service was impeccable!”

-Michael G

Lovely Property.

“The DeSoto Hotel is the perfect location for exploring Savannah. We were able to walk to every area that we wanted to visit. The Old Town Trolley boarding area was close by so we took advantage of the trolley also. Check in was easy, staff were attentive and this is a lovely property. Definitely recommend The DeSoto Hotel.”

-Bonita D.
