Perry Lane’s inspiration

Welcome to my beloved Savannah and Perry Lane Hotel. In my seventy-plus years, I’ve had many loves — my parents, brother, artists, dance, peacocks, even a few good men. However, it wasn’t until I was well into my thirties that I realized my deepest, most long-standing love: Savannah. In my youth I tried to escape, spending several years traveling and collecting. It took me a long time to discover that Savannah was always with me, deeply embedded in my very bones. I finally came to appreciate the place that shaped me, and I wanted to pay homage to my city and home, and to celebrate its people, cultures, structures, history, and future. I determined that building a hotel would open a door for the world to Savannah’s joie de vivre. Nestled among churches, parks, restaurants and homes, Perry Lane Hotel straddles the past and present much as it straddles the lane. Welcoming yet unexpected, imbued with Southern comfort, showcasing aestheticism, and regaling us with stories, Perry Lane invites you in. Join me in exploring the love of my life — Savannah. ~ Adelaide
