About us

Named the #1 Hotel in Savannah in Travel + Leisure’s 2026 World’s Best Awards and recognized with a MICHELIN Key for the second consecutive year, Hotel Bardo Savannah is an award-winning boutique urban resort and gathering place overlooking iconic Forsyth Park in the heart of Savannah’s Historic District. Equal parts grand Southern estate and spirited modern retreat, Bardo brings together exceptional design, destination dining, wellness, culture, and more than 22,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor meeting and event space. Designed for groups looking for something beyond the expected, Hotel Bardo offers a distinctly Savannah setting for corporate meetings, executive retreats, incentive travel, weddings, social celebrations, and private events. With 149 guest rooms and suites, flexible gathering spaces, immersive culinary experiences, and resort-style amenities, Bardo makes it possible for groups to meet, stay, dine, and play all in one place. MEETINGS, EVENTS & CELEBRATIONS More than 22,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor event space spans an inspired collection of ballrooms, salons, meeting rooms, terraces, courtyards, and gardens. Spaces can accommodate everything from intimate board meetings and leadership retreats to conferences, incentive programs, weddings, receptions, and multi-day celebrations. At Bardo, the agenda extends well beyond the meeting room. Gatherings can move from a morning strategy session to lunch overlooking the gardens, an afternoon at the spa or pool, a private cooking experience, and cocktails and dinner—all without leaving the property. DINING & CULINARY EXPERIENCES Food and drink are central to the Bardo experience. Saint Bibiana, the hotel’s signature coastal Italian restaurant, brings a playful approach to destination dining and private events. Bar Bibi offers a spirited open-air setting for cocktails and casual gatherings, while The Green Room serves as Bardo’s intimate living room for coffee, conversation, and nightcaps. For something more interactive, The Cooking School at Saint Bibiana transforms team-building into a shared culinary experience. Private classes and events invite groups to cook, gather, and connect around the table—an ideal addition to corporate retreats, incentive itineraries, and celebration weekends. WELLNESS, LEISURE & SAVANNAH Saltgrass Spa offers restorative treatments and rituals alongside fitness and wellness experiences designed to create space to reset between meetings. Beyond the spa, guests can retreat to Bardo’s resort-style pool, lush gardens and courtyards, or step directly into Forsyth Park and explore Savannah’s celebrated squares, architecture, restaurants, galleries, and culture. The result is the ease and amenities of a resort with the energy and accessibility of downtown Savannah—particularly suited to groups looking to blend business, leisure, and a true sense of place. AMONG THE MOST CELEBRATED HOTELS IN SAVANNAH Hotel Bardo’s recent 2026 honors include: • #1 Hotel in Savannah — Travel + Leisure World’s Best Awards 2026 • Condé Nast Traveler Triple Crown recipient, an elite distinction recognizing hotels that have achieved the Hot List, Gold List, and Readers’ Choice Awards • Fodor’s Finest — Top 100 Hotels in the World • Recognition from Southern Living, Women’s Health, and The Zoe Report Bardo is also an inaugural MICHELIN Key hotel and has been recognized by Travel + Leisure as one of the Best New Hotels in the World. For meeting planners searching for a luxury group hotel in Savannah, executive retreat destination, incentive travel hotel, wedding venue, or meeting space in Savannah’s Historic District, Hotel Bardo offers something increasingly difficult to find: a destination that feels transportive without ever losing its sense of place. Always rare. Gather accordingly.
