The Hills-Galloway House c. 1693

The HG house is a magnificent example of First Period and Georgian Architecture.
Originally sitting on the Connecticut River in East Hartford, the Hills-Galloway House circa 1693, was originally built for Lt. Jonathan Hills and his wife Dorothy Hale.
In 2020, we began the five-year process of lovingly relocating the home to Savannah, GA where we went through extreme measures to ensure authentic historical preservation.
The HG house has five suites, the Lt Galloway and Bellingham are bookable now. The Captain Hills, Georgian and 1693 Suites will be back online for Fall 2026 Bookings Soon. The Lt. Galloway, Bellingham, Georgian, and Captain Hills Suites do not have in-suite kitchens like the Nichols House; however, each suite is equipped with a small refrigerator and coffee maker. ALL SUITES HAVE PRIVATE ENSUITE BATHROOMS.
The 1693 Suite has a full size kitchen and private ensuite. It is comparable in size to the Nichols Suite (roughly 1,200 sq feet).
The two-story back porch and courtyard at the HG house are great spots to relax. ADULTS ONLY

The Nichols House c. 1884

The Nichols house is a prime example of Italianate architecture of the Victorian Era in Savannah. Intricate corbels and dental molding adorn the outside, while the inside boasts original ceiling medallions, crown molding and beautiful heart pine wood floors.
Built for William Nichols in 1884, the house is rich in history. William was the oldest son of George Nichols, the head printer in Savannah during the Civil War. William continued the family tradition to become a prominent printer in Savannah as well, hence the name Printmaker’s Inn. The house was, for a time, owned by Nat King Cole, and has also served as a local community center for underprivileged youth in Savannah.
The Nichols house has four large suites all including kitchens or kitchenette. Perfect for families or guests that want ample room to spread out. ALL SUITES HAVE PRIVATE ENSUITE BATHROOMS.
While all the suites are on the large side, there are no interior common spaces in the Nichols house. However, the back courtyard and front porch are great outdoor spaces all can enjoy privately or together! KID FRIENDLY

"This is a very special place. It is one of the most beautiful inns I have ever stayed in. Every detail of the historic house has been restored to an exceptional degree of historicity and authenticity. Furniture, wall colors and artworks match the period. Beyond that it is comfortable, out of the busy parts of town but in easy walking distance. The proprietor is a great guy. Simply a wonderful experience!"

Christoph | Georgian Suite
"A beautiful classic home, well kept and attractively decorated. The dining table looks down on the charming tree-lined street below. It’s a very quiet area, but just a few blocks from Forsyth Park, and ten minutes by foot from nice cafe’s. Pete, the owner, was a very friendly host and made us feel most welcome during our stay in Savannah."

Matthew | Nichols Suite
"We were extremely impressed with the building and its authentic historical atmosphere, architecture and decor. The attic room was like stepping in time! We stayed in the Bellingham suite and it was fantastic! The rooms were spotless, modern amenity bathroom seamlessly complimenting the historical look of the property."

The Hills-Galloway House is older than Savannah! The house was moved from Connecticut and carefully restored on site (c. 1693)
