The original experience

Here's what stands out—and what you shouldn't miss: - Design & Atmosphere: The mix of terrazzo tiles, retro-modern hues, and preserved architecture creates a stylish yet comfortable vibe—perfect for soaking in Savannah charm. - Cocktail Charm: Dive into their playful "cheekies"—mini banana daiquiris ($8) or espresso martini cheekies ($6)—perfect for sharing.

You'll also find inventive larger cocktails, like a bright white Negroni garnished with pineapple or rum and mezcal concoctions ideal for Savannah's humidity. There's also a bold "Proper Martini Service" for two—classic and luxurious. ):** I savored an espresso martini from the cheekies—rich, smooth, and exactly what a vodka lover like me craves.

That said, a menu expansion with a few more fruity vodka cocktails would hit the spot next time. - Dining & Brunch: Beyond cures for a dehydrated soul, the all-day menu dazzles—from seafood towers and croquettes to ricotta-and-maple French toast—vibrant, flavorful, and far from ordinary hotel fare.
