Travel tips
Use the connected MARTA station and Peachtree Center walkway to reach downtown attractions and avoid parking hassles, since Centennial Olympic Park, the Georgia Aquarium, and World of Coca-Cola are all within about a mile on foot. Book the rooftop restaurant or breakfast service in advance if visiting during convention season, as breakfast is not included with standard rooms. Confirm your room type ahead of time if newer interiors matter to you, since some guests note the building's age shows in furnishings and fixtures.
What guests say
Guests frequently praise the quality of the rooms and the on-site breakfast, singling out items like lox, bagels, and made-to-order eggs prepared by a personable chef, along with consistently friendly and helpful staff. A recurring complaint is that breakfast is not included by default and that hallway or door noise can be an issue. Several reviewers also note the building's age, describing worn carpets, beds, and bathroom fixtures and a fitness center in need of updating, though the property is still seen as a step up from at least one nearby competitor. Overall sentiment is mixed, balancing strong service and dining highlights against concerns about dated furnishings.
