Savannah Hotels
SavannahTwo major events have placed Savannah squarely in the sites of the tourism industry: the American Civil War and the publishing of John Berendt’s Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil in 1994. The result of the publication of this book has had a tremendous impact to the local economy of Savannah, Georgia. The local residents refer to Berendt’s book as simply “The Book” and it has increased the tourism to this once sleepy city by nearly 46%. The economy of Savannah is driven by its large port but the heart of Savannah is driven by its Old South charm. Whether you are visiting antebellum mansions or taking a horse-drawn carriage while sipping a mint julep, you will have no trouble finding something to do here. Don’t forget to visit the restored Isaiah Dunlap House as you tour the city. The Dunlap House was lovingly restored by seven Savannah ladies who watched their old-world charm being destroyed in the name of progress. The Dunlap house is filled with period architecture and reminds visitors of the famous phrase from Margaret Mitchells’ Gone With the Wind, “The South will rise again!” Click on by prontohotel.com and we can make sure your visit to this astonishing city will be one you will want to remember for the rest of your life!
