Launching in the Fall of 2026, Recess Hotel & Club will transform Savannah’s storied Manger Building into a new kind of lifestyle hotel and clubhouse. Recess is designed as a private clubhouse for all. Locals, members, and travelers will come together to eat, drink, work, play, and connect.

The brand tension takes something that’s fundamentally exclusionary (the notion of a club) and gives it back to the community: A private club for all. Our club is about welcoming in, not keeping out. We attract and embrace like-minded thinkers, tinkerers, creators and drinkers for a day, a stay, or years to come.

We gravitate to the tangible, the tactile, the solid and real. Rooted in the sensory, we seek out sights, sounds and flavors we can experience personally, not virtually.

We’re the connective tissue between the local and the traveler, the performer and the audience. Our open nature and inclusive ethos invite spontaneous moments of social, cultural and creative exchange.

Iconic ensembles. Visionary works. Encore performances. Recess embraces and fosters all forms of expression, from the sartorial to the artistic.
