About this property

Historic District Cottage Suite with a Fresh, Youthful Decor.

Check-in time is 3:00 pm with check-out at 10:00 am for this rental located at 213 East Hall Street, Savannah, Georgia, 31401.

Brockington Hall Cottage Suite is a cozy and different little suite (539 sq. ft.) in Savannah’s Historic District. Situated on a quiet tree-lined, brick-paved street of beautiful residences, it is within a block and a half from Forsyth Park and of the Mansion on Forsyth Park. It is also within walking distance (for spry people!) of most of Savannah’s famous sites.

Cancellation policy is that upon notice of cancellation THROUGH VRBO (and therefore in writing), owners will immediately seek to re-rent the property. If property is re-rented, any loss to owner will be offset against deposit along with $50.00 fee. Transfer of deposit to other available dates may be allowed.

Located about 25 blocks from the center of the City, and redone and opened in March of 2012, your Cottage Suite includes a large living room/dining room combination, a separate kitchen, a bedroom, and a small but well-appointed bath with walk-in shower - no bathtub. The total area is approximately 506 square feet.

The decorating in your cottage suite is fresh and young, with most of the furnishings being from IKEA. There's a table for 4 with tableware, two flat-screen TVs, two IKEA lounge chairs with footstools, basic kitchen equipment, and quality linens on the new Serta queen-sized bed. Your cottage is private, with its own security system.

The informality of the Cottage Suite’s design and furnishings and its modest rental rate make it especially well-suited to the young at heart who wish to enjoy the grandeur of Savannah itself without staying in a formal space. A full kitchen with facilities for light cooking is provided, and you can bring home your treats from Savannah’s many fine restaurants for later snacks. You can cook your own breakfast or have breakfast nearby in the Cafe at Forsyth Park, which has Starbucks coffee. A Kroger grocery store is a block away down the lane, and Johnny Ganem's wine and liquor store is three blocks away.

The main house is located in a tastefully-renovated 16th Century Classic Italianate villa-style mansion built in 1882 which houses an event venue and private apartments as well. You can see more about the building on our website, Brockington Hall, and on our Facebook page, Brockington Hall Event Venue and Inn.

There are plenty of pillows and many additional comforts. All textiles are new as of 2012, and the mattress and pillows have special coverings for your protection.

A coffee-maker is provided, with coffee, tea, sugars, Splenda, and creamer.

In addition to the private entrance, the Cottage Suite has wireless Internet access and cable TV service. You will have use of Brockington Hall’s shared courtyard and of our shared laundry facility (where use of the machines is free), off-street parking for one vehicle, and maid service at a reasonable frequency after a two-night’s stay, if requested.

One off-street parking space is provided. Parking spaces are small. If you have a large vehicle, you may need to park in unmetered, on-street parking, and to be mindful of street sweeping signs.

The Cottage Suite is a smoke-free facility. Smoking is allowed outside the building. There is a small, unadorned, concrete-pad, fenced area with seating where you can smoke.

A two night minimum stay is required, but we'd love for you to be our guests for an extended stay as well.

We will be pleased to show you the event venue if it is not in use. And you can roam at will, on foot or otherwise, in Savannah's Historic and Victorian Landmark Districts.

We do ask that you let us know your anticipated time of arrival so that we can plan our days (and nights).

Cancellation policy is that upon notice of cancellation THROUGH VRBO (and therefore in writing), the owners will immediately seek to re-rent the property. If property is re-rented, any loss to owner will be offset against deposit along with $50.00 fee. VRBO’s booking fee is not refundable. Transfer of deposit to other available dates may be allowed.

Nice getaway spot

This location was cute and cozy for our quick getaway. The shower was nice and hot, and the bed was comfy. The spot was pretty secluded from the street but the owner’s directions for access were easy to follow.

Very quiet and comfortable!

We enjoyed our stay and would book again next time in Savannah. A very nice grocery store was just at the end of the alley, and with a full fridge/kitchen it was easy to have snacks and breakfast there. Forsythe Park was just a block away as well so we enjoyed the location.

The property needs some TLC. Bathroom needs a Thorough cleaning. Shower is not a working shower. Living room nice and comfortable and looks as pictured. Kitchen no cloth towels. Robert is a very nice man and gave us good directions and suggestions. Outside courtyard not usable.

Close to Forsyth Park

Location was great. Off street parking was nice. Close to a grocery store. The host was a gentleman, and gave us a tour of the Inn. The size of the cottage worked well for the two of us for 8 days. We liked being able to walk to everything we wanted to see. The cottage has great potential.

We had a BLAST!!!!!!!

The perfect place to stay, just a mile to the river front and far enough away to stay out of the busy area for a quite romantic get away. Lee was awesome and was very kind and told us a lot of historical information about his home. Plenty of places to eat within a 15 min walk and the UBER service was less the $7.00 to get to the water front. Perfect place to stay, dont miss out if you want to have a great time.

Great host, beautiful property, perfect location

Lee was a great host, very personable. He welcomed us in the driveway and gave us a tour of the property, telling us the history and making sure we were comfortable, ensuring he left us with no questions and was available our entire stay if we needed anything. This beautiful property is perfectly located only a few blocks from Forsyth Park, a must see when visiting Savannah. Many shops and restaurants are within walking distance as well as plenty of transportation options including trolleys that tour the city.

Great Location, Cottage was perfect for 2!

My husband and I spent 3 nights in the Cottage and had a great stay. The Cottage had plenty of space for the 2 of us, a parking spot and the location so close to Forsyth Park could not have been better. I had asked Robert if we could see the main home and they were setting up for a party but he showed us around and wow it's pretty special so glad he was kind enough to so. As other reviewers mentioned, it is an older place so if you set your expectation knowing this, it's a great place for the value and location and we would definitely stay here again.

Why they chose this property



This suite is not part of the main building and was a modest apartment outfitted in the 1960's.

What makes this property unique

The unique benefits of this suite, at this price, are its privacy, its furnishings and decor, and its location. The suite is ideal for those who are seeking a more relaxed feel, rather than a 'period' feel, and for those who want to walk or travel inexpensively in Savannah's beautiful Historic and Victorian National Landmark Districts. Situated at the south end of the Historic District, we are approximately a mile from River Street, the north border of the roughly one square mile district. We are a block from a bus tour stop at Forsyth Park where you can board a free shuttle or paid tour, a block from a grocery store, and four blocks from a liquor store (if that matters).
