What they say
One Michelin Key
Michelin
Also in Forbes Travel Guide and Condé Nast Traveler.
Ritz-Carlton and Downtown Atlanta were made for each other — it’s hard to think of another American city where the brand’s classic elegance is so well appreciated.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Peachtree Center station sits just outside the doors, and Centennial Olympic Park is a five-minute walk away.
The rooms
Marble foyers lead into rooms finished in cream and dark wood, with rain showers and wide skyline views.
The gym
On the seventh floor, the gym has Peloton bikes, TechnoGym machines, and a mirrored movement studio for on-demand classes.
Dogs stay too.
Restaurant
AG
The second-floor steakhouse grills prime cuts and pours tableside rye cocktails beneath geometric red lantern chandeliers.
The lobby sets a mod-meets-glam tone, where contemporary art hangs above white leather chairs and drum pendants encircle glittering chandeliers.
At the table
Jittery Joe's pours custom roasts by the front desk, and the lobby lounge serves cocktails against velvet banquettes.
How it began
When the hotel opened in April 1984, it was only the second property to carry the Ritz-Carlton name.
