Top-rated hotels in Atlanta
A shortlist of the top-rated hotels in Atlanta, ranked by guest rating and drawn from 15 properties across the city. It is for travellers who want a proven stay, whether they are in town for a convention, a ballgame, a campus visit or a weekend in the city.
Staying in Atlanta
Atlanta spreads across a set of distinct districts rather than a single historic core, and these hotels sit in several of them: along Peachtree Street in Midtown, on Peachtree Road in Buckhead, at the Galleria and the Battery in the northwest, near Ponce de Leon Avenue on the east side, and close to the airport and Peachtree City to the south. Guests here range from 5-star addresses such as Four Seasons Hotel Atlanta and Waldorf Astoria Atlanta Buckhead down to 3-star stays, so the shortlist covers both polished full-service hotels and simpler options.
Because the properties are so dispersed, the choice depends on why you are coming. Couples and short-break visitors tend to gravitate toward the Midtown and Buckhead addresses, while convention and event travellers are better served by the Galleria and Waverly cluster or the Battery. Families and longer stays have the airport and suburban options. Ratings are tight, mostly between 4.5 and 4.9 out of 5, so the deciding factor is location and style rather than quality.
