Bellwether House

An experiential Bed & Breakfast and South’s pick for luxury accommodations, amazing food and world class wellness, housed in a restored 1876 mansion. 

Housed in a 160-year-old mansion in the heart of Savannah, Ga., Bellwether House offers a total immersion of incredible hospitality with a focus on wellness, community and preservation. 

Run with a sustainable eye, this bed and breakfast takes great pride in each of their rooms — all faithfully restored to their 1876 beauty and furnished in timeless elegance — while adding every modern comfort possible. 

Uninhibited access to breakfast, afternoon high tea, evening sabered champagne toasts and an attentive staff with personal 24/7 valet services is just the beginning for guests staying at the gem which graces the top of Forsyth Park. 

Health and wellness programs are offered daily, so guests can lose themselves in the thrill of high-energy digital studio classes or clear their minds with courtyard yoga designed for relaxation and rejuvenation. The sumptuous spa also beckons, with luxurious massage treatments and restorative hot baths in a magnificent copper soaking tub. 

The Bellwether also houses one of the finest food experiences in all of the Lowcountry, with a curated bar in the evenings and a creative, organic menu, with everything made from scratch on property from local sources. 

Reflecting Savannah’s culture, The Bellwether House is both historical and contemporary, a great option on Gaston Street to experience a restorative, unprecedented stay.
