Vibe
Lumen Lounge anchors the social flow, balancing mod chandeliers with intimate corners where evening live sets take over the ground floor.
“Lumen lounge glamour”
Club guests receive dedicated concierge attention, garment pressing and five daily culinary presentations on floor 24.
A dedicated Movement Studio offers hundreds of virtual classes, complemented by Peloton bikes with streamed workouts.
Live jazz, Latin and flamenco animate Lumen Lounge, where guests linger and mingle among sofas.
On downtown Peachtree Street, with Centennial Olympic Park nearby and MARTA connecting the wider city.
“There’s contemporary art, live music, and an outpost of the beloved Athens-based Jittery Joe’s coffee shop.”
Rooms
Deluxe Rooms begin with a marble foyer and keep the palette neutral, with rain showers adding a straightforward comfort.
“For those who appreciate high-end touches, the lobby’s light marble flooring, massive chandelier and modern wingback armchairs will be appealing.”
Wellness
The fitness center combines rowing machines and free weights with a dedicated Movement Studio for virtual classes.
“The lobby sets a mod-meets-glam tone, where contemporary art hangs above white leather chairs and drum pendants encircle glittering chandeliers.”
Backstory
The Eighty-Four Pour coffee blend at Jittery Joe’s takes its name from the hotel’s opening in April 1984.

The neighborhood

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.
