13 Best Hotels in Atlanta
"It might be situated in the heart of preppy Buckhead, but the Burgess Hotel knows nothing of ginghams or plaids. Instead, it oozes international flare, as evidenced by the large dragon sculpture in the open lobby and the Asian prints on the walls. Abstract line art by Jessica Jokhi—daughter of the hotel’s Hong Kong–born owners, Freny and Burges Jokhi, can be found throughout the property, lending a bold, modern feel. Rooms are clean, with a minimalist design punctuated by bold pops of color (a blue velvet chair next to an all-white bed, a green sconce in a neutral-colored bathroom). The Frette sheets and towels are extra soft. If you’d like to check out some of the area’s best shopping at places such as the Shops Buckhead Atlanta, you’ll want to utilize the hotel’s complimentary two-mile transportation service, and the its pool, situated in a lush courtyard with an outdoor bar, is a perfect little oasis. If you want to stay in Buckhead but prefer to skip the monotony of a chain hotel, this isn’t just a good option—it’s the only option." - Allison Weiss Entrekin
