Noble is pleased to announce the opening of Tempo by Hilton Savannah Historic District, a wellness-focused lifestyle hotel in the heart of the historic district, offering 148 rooms and suites. The property marks Tempo by Hilton’s debut in Georgia and reflects Noble’s strategy to focus on institutional-quality assets in high-growth markets with strong, proven travel and hospitality fundamentals.
“Savannah is a market defined by structural scarcity and sustainable demand – the conditions under which we have consistently created value for our investors,” said Ben Brunt, Noble’s chief investment officer. “This opening reflects the discipline that has guided our platform from the beginning: the right markets, the right brands and the operational rigor to deliver at every point in the cycle.”
An irreplaceable location
Tempo by Hilton Savannah Historic District is located on East Bryan Street, just off Reynolds Square and steps from the Savannah River. It benefits from an ideal location in one of the most visited and economically vibrant historic destinations in the United States. The hotel’s central location offers walking access to the historic district’s major attractions, a short ferry ride to the Savannah Convention Center and close proximity to the Port of Savannah, the third busiest container port in the country.
Savannah attracts nearly 15 million visitors annually, contributing more than $4 billion to the local economy. The market consistently exhibits resilient multi-segment demand across leisure, group and business travel – fueled by the city’s rich history, expansive convention center, robust events calendar and continued population growth in the broader Coastal Georgia market.
A hotel designed for how people actually live
There are hotels, and there are places that make a city feel more like itself. Tempo by Hilton Savannah Historic District is the latter: a beautifully designed gathering place that belongs as much to the community as it does to outside guests.
Carefully designed to complement Savannah’s distinctive architecture and rich heritage, the LEED-certified hotel combines historic character with modern, wellness-driven experiences. Each tech-enabled room features a dedicated ‘Get Ready Zone’ with enhanced lighting, spacious spa-inspired bathrooms with Bluetooth speaker mirrors, Apotheke bath products and comfortable Sealy Accelerate mattresses – exclusive to Tempo by Hilton.
For guests who refuse to let travel disrupt their fitness routine, Peloton Suites offer an in-room bicycle, yoga mats and resistance bands. The 24-hour fitness center provides guests with full strength and cardio training equipment for when the moment arises.
The hotel’s lobby and public areas are also designed with vibrant communal areas developed for connection and collaboration. The lobby, featuring local artwork and coastal design elements, reflects the city’s layered, storied character and invites guests to relax and recharge with generous space to work and mingle. Thanks to more than 3,000 square meters of flexible meeting space, the hotel is suitable for board meetings, intimate receptions or anything in between.
“Tempo by Hilton is designed for the modern traveler who wants to maintain their routine while staying present and getting the most out of their trip,” said Kevin Morgan, global brand chief and vice president of Tempo by Hilton. “As our first Tempo property in Georgia, this opening marks an important step in the brand’s growth as we continue to expand into sought-after destinations like Savannah, where guests can seamlessly combine productivity, relaxation and discovery.”
Girl on the roof waving in honor of Savannah’s soul
Waving Girl Rooftop does what the best gathering places always do: you stop, look out, and feel grateful to be exactly where you are. The name pays tribute to Florence Martus, the beloved local legend who for decades waved at every ship passing through the Channel. It is also a promise: a candid welcome, expressed in food and drinks.
Chef Norma Maytag has created a menu rooted in Coastal Georgia ingredients—think BBQ belly sliders, Vidalia onion fritters with smoked tomato aioli, and seasonal burrata selections—paired with signature cocktails and a wine program inspired by female winemakers.
Bluestone Lane Café: a new morning ritual in Reynolds Square
Expanding its wellness focus, Tempo by Hilton Savannah invites hotel guests, downtown professionals and visitors to refuel at Bluestone Lane Café – the nationally recognized Australian-inspired café overlooking Reynolds Square. The street-level café serves fresh, seasonal breakfast, brunch and lunch, in an inviting gathering space with comfortable seating that promotes connection and productivity.
For Savannah. By Savannah.
“We are excited to officially open our doors and welcome guests,” said Bryan Hale, general manager of Tempo by Hilton Savannah Historic District. “Every detail of the hotel is designed to help travelers feel their best while experiencing the charm and hospitality that Savannah is known for.”
Tempo by Hilton Savannah Historic District is owned and developed by Noble Investment Group and managed by McKibbon Hospitality.
The hotel is now accepting reservations. Waving Girl Rooftop and Bluestone Lane Café are now open.
