Hotel ClermontThere’s just something about Atlanta that keeps people coming back for more. With rich history, vibrant neighborhoods, and thriving nightlife, and too many parks to name, it's no wonder that everyone and their mother shoots down to the 404. Luckily, within ATL’s city limits are plenty of hotels to accommodate visitors from all walks of life.

If you’re a fan of boutique hotels, then the Kimpton Sylvan or Moxy in Midtown should be at the top of your list. Or maybe you’re looking for a lavishly traditional hotel with an amazing view? Head over to the Georgian Terrace for a large dose of luxury.

Upon checking in, you’ll receive a free beer and access to the building’s rooftop, where you’re sure to meet an eclectic variety of locals and out-of-town guests. Although it’s not very far from Ponce City Market and the BeltLine’s Eastside Trail, you can still get the full Atlanta experience without leaving the property.

In addition to the vibrant rooms with floor-to-ceiling windows, there is also a business center that’s always open, all types of items for kids, and a cocktail bar if you’re in need of a quick drink. Since it’s right by Piedmont Park, The Fox Theatre, and the High Museum of Art, you won’t have to go very far to take in some of the city’s culture. Wylie Hotel

In addition to its close proximity to the Georgia Aquarium, Downtown and Midtown Atlanta areas, this notable dig includes spacious, pet-friendly rooms, and also houses Mrs. P’s Bar & Kitchen—named after its former “tea room” that sat in this location during the ‘50s. The menu includes a large drink selection, as well as some sweet and savory Southern dishes to try if you decide to pop in on the weekend for brunch.

Upon entering the hotel, you can get a breathtaking view of the large marble staircase, and lobby where a portion of 2017’s Baby Driver was filmed. The rooms include Balmain bath amenities, sweeping floral-draped curtains, and an incredible view of the city. By George, the house restaurant named after its two architects, is one of the best spots in ATL if you’re craving some contemporary American cooking.

The rooms maintain the atmosphere with its hardwood floors, and the two-course breakfast served each morning is a nod to the Southern charm that this lodging exudes. It’s located right around the corner from Piedmont Park, so the surrounding neighborhood is just as beautiful as this historic hotel.

In a location that features places like Puttshack, Rooftop L.O.A., and Drawbar, you’ll be engulfed in the excitement of the city from the moment you check in. But, if you’re just trying to relax, the rooms here are best known for their clean, creative aesthetic that blends modern comfort with industrial decor, and several of the furnishings are designed by locals as well. The Bellyard was built for work, play, and everything in-between, and its increasing popularity is symbolic of the Westside neighborhood that surrounds it.
