W Atlanta

Frommer's Review

Pampering the modern business or leisure traveler is the goal of the helpful staff at this boutique hotel. Though it's 20 minutes away from the shopping, dining, and nightlife of the famed Buckhead area, the W Atlanta is conveniently located if your plans include a trip to the World of Coca Cola or the IMAX Theater. Minimalist, light, and very chic, the W draws Atlanta's discerning visitor with many business-minded amenities and impeccable service. In fact, the latter is tellingly named the Whatever/Whenever Service -- and offers just what it says. Where to dine in Buckhead? Any Braves tickets left for the game tonight? Ask and you shall receive.

Guest rooms stand up well against the pricier Buckhead options; they feature sleek blond-wood furniture and chrome accents. Whether you're in town for work or play, slow down long enough to enjoy the rainforest showerhead and Aveda products in every bathroom, as well as the bedroom's pillow-top mattress with down comforter and pillows. Those planning an extended stay might want to request a room with a full kitchen. Note: Perhaps the staff was in a partying mood during our visit, but the elevators were dark and boomed with loud dance music. Corridors were also darkly lit.
