The Marshall House

Trip Advisor

The Marshall House has been a hotel since its inception in 1851 when Savannah’s railroad boom caused the city to double in size. However, it also served as a makeshift hospital twice: once during the yellow fever epidemics and again as a Union hospital during the final months of the Civil War. This Savannah hotel is reportedly haunted, with ghosts that seem rather harmless, known for turning on faucets and wandering the halls. If the haunted history isn’t enough to sway you, let the charming rooms, antique furnishings, and amazing location do the trick.
