I just spent a few nights at Municipal Grand in Savannah’s North Historic District, and it’s like checking into a cocktail lover’s dream. The team behind the legendary Death & Co. bar opened this 44-room hotel in a restored former bank, and the attention to detail is unreal. My room had its own banquette for morning coffee and a custom armoire stocked with spirits, glassware, and bar tools so you can mix your own drinks.
Downstairs, the Municipal Bar serves an all-day brunch, I paired oysters and steak tartare with a martini right at the table. Dinner rolled into tiny pineapple and strawberry daiquiris, and I capped the night at their rooftop Sun Club with a Negroni in hand. When their hidden basement bar, Hot Eye, opens this fall, I might have to come back just for that. Would you pick a hotel based on its cocktail menu?
