The Centurion Lounge by American Express

Review based on 1 visit (I am a centurion holder and visit lounges frequently) -whoever did the layout, BRAVO! It’s incredible. Indoor and plenty of outdoor on both sides. Watch the planes or sit in a garden type area. Big couches, small booths, multiple bar area plus private rooms galore! -the decor is over the top in the best way. Eating while you’re inside under a tree. It’s genius. -food is always on point along with the drink options. -unless this is new, I haven’t seen this drink option anywhere else. They have water tap that offers sparkling and tap. Directly behind it are a bunch of non alcoholic mixers to spice it up -I can’t see this place filling up there’s just so much space. Restrooms are clean. Showers available but I didn’t use them.

This lounge is big, spacious, clean, and beautifully designed. The seating variety is impressive, from comfortable lounge chairs to quiet areas with closed doors if you want more privacy. Simple check in: Amex card, ID & boarding pass. One of the highlights is the outdoor terrace, where you can enjoy fresh air and even catch the sunrise—a rare treat in an airport lounge. There are two food stations, a main bar, and a mini bar, plus a coffee area with desserts and beverages. While the setup is great, I found the food offerings to be pretty basic—I’d rate it 7/10. Hopefully, the menu changes for lunch or dinner to add more variety. I arrived around 6:15 AM, and it wasn’t crowded at all. However, after 7:45 AM, there was a long line to get in, and the lounge started filling up quickly. Staff are nice and constantly check on you to clean up! 👉 Overall: Lovely space with excellent amenities and atmosphere, but food could be improved.

This was my first Centurion Lounge experience, so take that for what it’s worth, but I thought it was quite nice. I didn’t try the vegan food, and I can’t remember what they served exactly, but they did have at least one dish at the food bar that was explicitly marked as vegan. The bartender was very nice and engaging. She made me a Gin Rickey that was lovely. They’ve got an outdoor area that was pretty cool. Overall it wasn’t too crowded, but I was there at like noon on a weekday, so I can see how it would get a lot worse. No issues whatsoever though. Best lounge I’ve ever been to.

It is my first time at the Centurion Lounge in Atlanta airport. I love the terrace. It is so nice to be sitting in the open air with a nice glass or wine. I had to wait half an hour because it was full, but it was worth the wait. I came back from an international flight and have a three hour layover. Food is decent, free drinks and free wifi. Very clean and staff is constantly removing dirty dishes. It is a huge lounge with nice bathrooms.

One of the nicest lounges of their collection, very spacious plenty of seating indoor and out. Not overcrowded and quick check-in. Bathrooms were tidy and no wait to get in. The chicken,mac,& green beans all had really good taste. Phone rooms for quiet conversations. Work cubbies and a business center. Plenty nooks for privacy. I rank this one 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Service here is trash. I got here a clear 5 minutes before the bar was supposed to close and three bartenders refused to look in my direction. Then, they made an announcement that the bar had closed and « oops sorry you got here too late. » Screw you, Amex. I spend $80k on this card per month. Also no food other than stale salad and a cappuccino machine. The lounge itself has a nice jungle themed layout. Only reason the rating isn’t lower.

Beautiful lounge with a really stylish, spacious design — high ceilings, elegant décor, and even a lovely patio that makes it feel extra open and airy. It’s a great place to relax once you’re inside. The catch? It’s located in the international terminal, so if you’re flying domestically, be prepared for quite a trek to get there. And even after you make the trip, there’s a good chance you’ll have to join a waitlist. From my experience (and what I’ve heard from others), it’s almost always busy. The atmosphere is nice, but the high demand means it can feel crowded, and capacity seems to be a consistent issue. Overall, a fantastic lounge in terms of look and comfort — just be ready for the long walk and the likely wait before you can enjoy it.

We opted to try this instead of going to the Delta lounge. There was a line and wait. And a QR code process to follow to get in. Seemed unnecessary to have that but maybe gives some people options to walk around instead of waiting in line. Interior is airy and nice looking, mainly due to large windows and the center piece tree. Also has a terrace but since it was rainy it was closed. The place smelled off and was not clean. Tables had plates and glasses on them, floors had food crumbs. Had semi-private rooms as well as various seating areas and configurations. Very busy. Bathrooms were clean, that was good. Food was not as good as I expected. Somehow I imagined it would be better than Delta lounges, it is not, not even close. Also somewhat scattered setting. Very few options to pick from. In any case, glad we gave it a try and know what to expect.
