What is the difference between Savannah’s South Historic District and North Historic District?
First of all, the South and North Historic Districts are both of what people come to visit because the squares, Forsyth Park, landmarks, points of interest, etc reside throughout each of them. There is no one district that is home to a majority. In fact, the entire historic district is only 2 square miles, so you are close to everything whether you’re in the north or the south. Choosing between the two is merely a preference because you will tour both throughout your stay.
Ask yourself which you might prefer….
The North Historic District (River St., City Market, etc) is definitely home to more of the chaos. If you want to party until 3:00 AM, you would probably prefer to stay there. This is where the majority of large, brand-name hotels are, as well as bars and lots of 20-somethings out and about until late at night. That being said, it can be really noisy when you’re trying to sleep.
The South Historic District, on the other hand, is a lot quieter — especially at night — because this is where the majority of historic homes are. Without the brand-name, chain hotels and crowds of tourists, it just tends to be a more calm, luxurious area.
