What you get
Hilton Garden Inn Atlanta Downtown is a three star property with the kind of list you expect from a chain of that size. You get free wifi, a business centre, a fitness centre, an indoor pool and an outdoor pool, a jacuzzi, a restaurant, bars, a lounge and a market. Rooms come with air conditioning, a desk, a refrigerator, a microwave, a hairdryer, an iron and board, a safe, a TV and a telephone, and some have a sofa bed. There are family rooms and wheelchair accessible rooms, plus a 24 hour front desk, luggage storage, laundry and dry cleaning, valet parking and a garage. The list thins out around leisure extras: the games room entries tell you little, and the terrace and smoking area are the only outdoor spaces named beyond the pools.
What that adds up to is a hotel built for people with a reason to be in Downtown rather than a holiday in itself. You can eat and drink without leaving the building, work in the business centre, swim indoors or out, and park the car in the garage or hand it to valet. Families get rooms with fridges and microwaves and a sofa bed, which makes breakfast and snacks cheaper. Couples looking for a quiet, design led stay should look elsewhere: this is a big, busy property with a banquet and conference operation. The Hilton Garden Inn Atlanta Downtown suits business travellers, sports and concert goers, and families who want facilities over atmosphere.

Where it puts you
You are staying Downtown, inside the loop, where the train at Five Points puts every line in the city within reach. That is the point of the location: you can move around Atlanta without a car, and the rest of the trip is built on that. The site's own line on the neighbourhood is blunt about the trade: the cheapest walk to a train in the city, with convention traffic setting the price, so a Tuesday in January is a different hotel than a Tuesday in October.
The BeltLine trail is also here, and the 0.8 mi to trail is the figure to keep in mind if you plan to walk or run it. This suits anyone whose trip runs on transit and convention schedules. It does not suit a holiday built around quiet streets and long, slow mornings.
Booking it
Book this one if you value a predictable full service chain in Downtown over a smaller independent property. Most rooms here can be cancelled free, and you book them through app.impt.io. Every confirmed booking removes one tonne of CO2, at no extra cost to you. Five percent of what you pay comes back as IMPT credit, out of the hotel commission rather than added to your bill.
