With properties in Alabama, Colorado, Georgia, Florida, North Carolina or South Carolina, each hotel’s exquisite art, music, and cultural influences are deliberately approachable. Designed to inspire and to encourage unforgettable experiences, Kessler guests are immersed in redefined Bohemian luxury, from a cutting-edge downtown icon to a premier luxury lodge, Savannah’s entertainment destination, and an elite ski lodge.

Kessler Hospitality was the founding member of the Marriott Autograph Collection, introduced with seven Autograph Collection branded hotels. Each property is a bold, original hotel carefully created with style and the individualist traveler in mind.

Location

Kessler Richmond Hill is a master planned development anchored by a dual branded hotel – a 100-room Courtyard by Marriott and a 100-room Residence Inn by Marriott. Set to open in late 2026, the new development brings Kessler’s signature blend of elevated design, artistic inspiration, and best-in-class Southern hospitality to one of Georgia’s fastest-growing communities. Just a short drive from Savannah, this new destination blends convenience with character — offering a stay that feels both nostalgic and entirely new.

Perfectly positioned along the I-95 corridor, the hotel is designed for today’s traveler — welcoming families, business travelers, and road-trippers alike. As Richmond Hill continues to grow with a new high school, hospital, and manufacturing hubs, the hotel will also offer flexible meeting space for both corporate and community events. Also included in the development is a new drive-through Starbucks — set to open in late 2025 — adding even more convenience for guests and locals alike.
