Atlanta, Georgia
Midtown Atlanta
Vibe
Midtown professionals mingle with visiting food enthusiasts, while culinary artwork threads a playful theme through the hotel.
“Wine lovers classroom”
Decanter-shaped sconces and different wine-crate collections on each floor carry the culinary theme upstairs.
Three climate-controlled cabanas and in-water chaise loungers frame leisurely afternoons on the ninth-floor Sky Terrace.
Epicurean Theatre brings food enthusiasts together over wine workshops, charcuterie classes and chocolate tastings.
On Midtown’s West Peachtree Street, within walking distance of Piedmont Park and the High Museum.
“Earthy tones and plush furnishings prevent the food theming from tipping into costume, and city-view rooms are worth requesting.”
Rooms
Curated pantries, butcher-block desks and wine-label room entries bring culinary craft to guest rooms featuring city views and neutral palettes.
“As the hotel name hints, though, Epicurean excels with its culinary program.”
Wellness
The ninth-floor Sky Terrace holds a seasonal outdoor saline pool with zero-edge entry, while the gym has touchscreen cardio machines and free weights.
“Instead, the decor imbues a sophisticated warmth with earthy tones and plush furnishings.”
Backstory
The brand grew from Mainsail Lodging & Development’s collaboration with Tampa’s Bern’s Steak House, giving its culinary fixation roots beyond Atlanta.
Eat & drink
Seasonal Aerial Kitchen & Bar pairs light dishes and salads with cocktails infused with fresh herbs and juices, overlooking the city.

The app
This is one hotel. The app has every one we rate, in your pocket, for the whole trip.
Our shorthand
What makes a hotel special, how well they pull it off, and what it feels like outside the door.
How well they pull it off
Extremely rare. Sets the global standard.
Brilliant execution. And we’re picky.
They did this well. You’ll notice.
A defining trait. Makes the hotel what it is.
The eight vibes
Architecture and interiors lead. There’s a creative vision at work.
The guest is conspicuously well cared for. Requests met before they’re made.
Rooted in place. Local character runs through the whole stay.
Energy and scene. Where the city goes out, whether or not it’s sleeping here.
A building with history. The story of the place is part of the stay.
Built around feeling better. Rest, sweat, soak, spa.
A hotel the city grew up with. Same rituals, same regulars.
A world of its own. No reason to leave the property.
Scene — what’s outside the door
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
A place apart: the property is the destination.
