A quieter Savannah

A boutique inn on Oglethorpe, lovingly restored and opened in 2025. Twenty-two rooms, a complimentary gourmet breakfast made to order, and a bar for guests only.

Adults only, 21 and up. Evening canapés nightly. Cancel free up to 7 days before you arrive.

The Douglas

Five stars on Google, and early kind words from Condé Nast Traveler and Southern Living.

A house first, a hotel second

The best afternoons here involve doing very little.

You don't check in at The Douglas so much as move in for a few days. Coffee in the Parlor, a breakfast good enough to plan a morning around, cocktails in The Bar by evening. Nobody will hurry you through any of it. The squares are a block away when you want them, and easy to forget when you don't.

The House

You don't check in so much as move in for a few days. Coffee in the Parlor, breakfast worth planning a morning around, cocktails in The Bar by evening. The squares are a block away when you want them, and easy to forget when you don't.

All The House
The Rooms

Twenty-two rooms, no two alike.

They go by number, not name. Some open onto the courtyard, some take the morning light over Oglethorpe, some hide a soaking tub at the top of the stairs. Small enough that the front desk knows your name by dinner.

They sit in five groups. The garden level runs below the street, with the courtyard and the back entrance opening straight onto it. The main floor is a step from the parlor and the bar. The second and third floors are quieter the higher you go, reachable by stairs or elevator. And the suites are apartment-style, in a separate building adjacent to the main house.

Dinner's next door, one building over.

Lester's is right next door, its own building and its own door on the street. A French-leaning raw bar from the same kitchen, run by Chef Jacques Larson: oysters, shellfish, the day's catch, and a wine wall to work through. The restaurant is walk-up only, but guests of The Douglas can secure a table through the front desk.

Start cold, oysters, peel-and-eat shrimp, the full seafood tower, then prime rib, or a lasagna that has no business being this good in a seafood house.

The Bar

The Bar

A bar that comes with your room key, open 2pm to 10pm daily. The list runs from the No Vacancy to the Walk the Plank, or the same craft with none of the proof, if that's the evening.

Into The Bar
The Bar: dark panelling, a lit bottle wall, rust leather stools and a tiled fireplace The entry hall dressed for evening canapés, with skirted tables and an oil painting above
Lowcountry shrimp and grits: Georgia white shrimp over stone-ground grits with sausage, fried basil and tomato broth
Bagel and lox: house-cured beet and horseradish salmon on an everything bagel with tomato, capers and dill
Blueberry acai bowl: a sorbet quenelle with figs, berries, granola and mint
The Morning

Breakfast, on the house

Lowcountry shrimp and grits, bagel and lox, Anson Mills Thirteen Colony waffles, cooked to order when you come down, never held under a lamp. Chef Jacques Larson is a two-time James Beard nominee, and it shows.

  • The Parlor, with arched windows onto the square and wing chairs drawn up to the light

    Evening Canapés in the Parlor

    The evening canapés: the kitchen sends out charcuterie, good cheese, and whatever it baked that afternoon, complimentary, no sign-up, no seating time. Fix a plate and claim the chair by the window.

  • A floor pantry alcove with an orchid, snacks and a glass-front beverage fridge

    Floor Pantries

    Not inside each room, but on every floor: a thoughtfully stocked complimentary pantry with cold beverages, snacks, and essentials. Think of it as your neighborhood pantry down the hall — help yourself, anytime.

  • The front of The Douglas on Oglethorpe, the round D sign at the kerb and a rack of house bikes at the left

    House Bikes

    A small fleet of house bikes is available for guest use, first come, first served, checked out through the front desk. Savannah is best explored on foot; the bikes are for the longer jaunts.

  • Coffee & Tea All Day

    Coffee break? It's on us. Complimentary handcrafted coffee and tea beverages all day long — Counter Culture coffee, loose-leaf tea from Pursuit of Tea. Prefer matcha? We've got that covered, too.

  • In-Room Spa

    We've partnered with a trusted local mobile spa for in-room treatments, available by appointment. Massages run from heated stone to prenatal, sports recovery to classic relaxation. Reserve at least 72 hours ahead where you can.

    A partner service, not included in the room. Pricing varies by duration and treatment type.

  • Lester's dining room at night, candlelit tables and oxblood banquettes

    Dinner at Lester's

    A French-leaning raw bar from the same kitchen, one building over: oysters, shellfish, the day's catch, and a wine wall to work through. Walk-up only, but the front desk can secure you a table.
