Historic Interest
In 1851, businesswoman Mary Marshall, noting that Savannah was woefully in need of visitor accommodations, built the four-story Marshall House Hotel. It served as a hospital for soldiers towards the end of the Civil War. It was also home to Joel Chandler Harris, author of the famous Uncle Remus stories. In 1999, restoration returned the building to its original purpose. The guest rooms feature Southern-style décor and heart pine floors. Some second story rooms open onto an ornate cast-iron veranda. Each floor features a display of memorabilia documenting an era in Savannah history, as well as artifacts found during the hotel's restoration.
