Ballastone Inn Review
Situated at a distance of 0.9 km from SCAD Beach, the 4-star Ballastone Inn Savannah offers 16 rooms. The romantic inn is in Downtown Savannah with cobblestoned squares and parks such as Forsyth Park shaded by oak trees covered with Spanish moss, at a moderate distance from such natural sights as the Central Forsyth Park.
Drinks are available at the lounge bar. You can enjoy an American cuisine in the Husk Restaurant located around 5 minutes' walk from this Savannah hotel.
The property is located in the very heart of Savannah merely 1.1 km from Georgia State Railroad Museum and around 5 minutes' walk from Telfair Museums Jepson Center. The Ballastone Inn Savannah is around 10 minutes' walk from G bus stop and only minutes from the historic Colonial Park Cemetery.
The nearby entertainment attractions of Savannah include Ghost Coast Distillery, which is about a 5-minute drive away.
Overlooking the garden, some rooms at the Ballastone Inn feature a stone fireplace furnished with a wardrobe and a sofa set. Guests can also use a spa bathtub, along with such amenities as a hairdryer and complimentary toiletries.
For those travelling from afar, Savannah/Hilton Head International airport is 21 minutes' drive away.
