The Cotton Sail Hotel is a hotel with its main entrance on West River Street at Barnard Street, though the hotel lists its address as 126 West Bay Street and parking is off West Bay Street. Its rooftop bar is one of few in Savannah.[3] The hotel opened in 2014,[4] by brothers Anil Patel and Kirit Patel.[5] The hotel received the Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation's Excellence in Rehabilitation award, the 2015 Historic Savannah Foundation's Preservation Award, and the Asian American Hotel Owners Association's IAHA Independent Hotel of the Year Award.[5]
