Very comfortable stay. Clean, decently luxurious. We got a good deal for our three day stay through Priceline. Also had complimentary 30 dollar drinks each day at the bar. Their rooftop bar is pretty good with good Savannah River view. We sat there for watching the Savannah boat parade. They clean the rooms every day. Also gave microwave to the room when we asked for it. And fridge is there in the room.More

We were disappointed on our recent stay at this hotel.
The bathroom around the toilet had drops of pee on the floor . We had 3 people in our room and they gave us 2 towels and no wash cloths. When we called for more towels the ones they brought up had stains on them .
There was a big Spaghetti stain on the floor in front of our door. It was never cleaned.
As for the daily fee we felt they were dishonest . If you look at there web site it states what you get for the Destination Fee. It was mentioned you get a 5 dollar discount for the hop off and hop on Trolley. You do not need to stay there for the "Coupon". It is also available around the corner from the Hotel.
We do not drink alcohol so we were served a non alcoholic drink that was not drinkable. They also give you one cup of coffee for your fee. We do not drink coffee and asked for a hot chocolate instead and were told no you will have to pay for it if you want a hot chocolate.
They have a sign for Lemonade by the front desk but we never saw any.
I would appreciate a refund on my Destination fee please.

Worst house keeping… we stayed for 3 nights and did not have our bedroom sheets changed once. Housekeeping threw away a shoebox which literally had shoes halfway in it… now we can’t return the shoes. Front desk was entirely unapologetic and apprehensively returned a “resort fee” which we didn’t even know we were paying (which apparently was for the pool… despite it being 40 degrees that weekend).
Would recommend you just pay up for JW Marriott across the street.

My husband I got married at the Alida in November 2022, and our experience was absolutely incredible. The Event Manager, Jessica Mathis, made our dream day come to life with all her hard work. She was so communicative and went above and beyond to be there for us through every aspect of our planning process and throughout our entire stay at the Alida. The hotel itself was as beautiful as it looks online, and everyone we encountered was friendly and helpful. We plan on going back at least once a year to reminisce and celebrate getting married at such an amazing venue. I would recommend to anyone looking for a great balance of Savannah charm with modern touches and great views!

Booked a room for a couple nights at the Alida, which is a self-described boutique hotel that is customer service driven with a family feel and higher end amenities. We were sorely mistaken. Once we called and found out how to actually valet, we got the car taken care of and the comedy of errors started. Once in the room we found it to be very clean but not well maintained. Broken drapes than could not be shut (we improvised with hair clips), electric door locks that were poorly timed and difficult to open and walls so thin that the activity in the adjacent rooms led nothing to the imagination. Due to the issues, our room was switched for night two and the the lack of maintenance was evident again, a wobbly water closet, a shower door that was out of plum and wouldn’t seal and the same door lock issue.
Aside from the challenges with the room there were some significant customer service issues. Two wedding parties over the weekend equated to a lack of amenity use for the rest of the guests. The rooftop bar they promote so much was booked for private functions all weekend, so that was off limits. The one lounge that was open had a “sliding scale” for drinks I guess, Friday was $15 and Saturday was $20 for the same drink. As hotel guests we were turned away each morning for breakfast because we didn’t have a reservation. When we finally did get to sit for dinner the menu was lackluster for the type of hotel they claim to be. When visiting hotels for the first time we try to manage our expectations. Based on our research, this place seemed like it was dialed in, in reality they have a very long way to go.
Be careful when booking here, call ahead to see if the amenities are available and hopefully they become diligent about meeting the standard they portray.
