Assistant Front Office Manager in Savannah, Georgia at LEFT LANE Hospitality Group, LLC

Recess is where the everyday takes a break.

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. With 221 rooms—including suites and bunk rooms—plus co-working, a rooftop pool, a circuit-based wellness club, a French brasserie, and layered social spaces, Recess is designed as a “public club”: a private clubhouse for all. Locals, members, and travelers will come together to eat, drink, work, play, and connect.

The project builds on the momentum of Hotel Bardo Savannah, Left Lane’s flagship urban resort that opened in 2024. Bardo has already been recognized as one of the Best New Hotels in the World by Condé Nast Traveler, Best Hotels of the Year by Travel + Leisure, and earned the inaugural Michelin Key designation—cementing Left Lane as one of hospitality’s most closely watched innovators.

Left Lane is a vertically integrated hospitality development and management company focused on transforming historic, iconic properties into layered destinations that reflect their communities. With more than $1.5B in projects planned across Savannah, Memphis, Pittsburgh, Providence, Phoenix, and Bozeman, Left Lane is building a portfolio of hotels, clubs, and experiences that are both nostalgic and forward-looking.
