  • Westin Peachtree Plaza - Atlanta
    by ATXtraveler
    When you are looking for a hotel in Atlanta, there are many things you may want to consider. Ultimately, the Westin Peachtree has plenty of pros, but also a couple cons. First and foremost, this is a beautiful hotel with gorgeous views from just about every room (I have stayed in at least 4 rooms). It is also ultra convenient for people with business downtown, or any one using the Atlanta Public Transportation. On the other hand though, if you are staying downtown for the social aspect of Atlanta, you are in the wrong place. This downtown area was a ghost town the four times I stayed here.

    The hotel itself is a high end property with the Heavenly bed, Heavenly shower, and all the amenities of a high end hotel, including a great fitness center, concierge and meeting rooms.

    Overall, location is everything here. If you are doing business downtown, stay here. If you are looking for night life and don't want to drive afterward, head to midtown or Buckhead.

    Atlanta's landmark hotel stands proudly in the city skyline, welcoming visitors from around the world with hospitality at its finest. The West Peachtree Plaza: where you can do and see everything Atlanta has to offer.

    Restaurant atop the hotel that turns:
    The Sun Dial--'Atlanta's Best View of Atlanta'
    View all of this spectacular city from the 73 stories up at the Sun Dial Restaurant, Bar & View.

    The adventure begins with a two-minute ride to the top of the hotel in the scenic glass elevators. Whether watching fans cheer on the Atlanta Braves or visitors play in Centennial Olympic Park, the Sun Dial View offers some of the best sightseeing available in Atlanta.

    The Sun Dial Restaurant, Bar & View was established in 1976 atop the Westin Peachtree Plaza, the tallest hotel in the Western Hemisphere. The Westin Peachtree Plaza is 723 feet (220 meters) tall and 188 feet (57 meters) in diameter. Stone Mountain is just 20 feet (6 meters) taller at its highest point than the Westin Peachtree Plaza. There are 230,000 square feet of glass in the building, allowing views of the city from every room.

    I've never stayed here, but at 73 stories high, the Westin is literally tops in Atlanta. There is a restaurant near the top that gives excellent views of the city.

  • You should stay at the Peachtree Hotel. From what I remember, it's a black building that's shapped like a slice of pie.

    It's shaped like a piece of pie. When I was there, some man was dressed as a lobster and was handing out flyers outside the building. I think it was for a restaurant or he was just some kind of lobster activist.

  • First let me start this review with bias. I am a Starwood Preferred Guest Gold member. I am an owner of a Starwood Vacation Property. I believe that above all else you can't stay in better hotels or resorts than those owned and operated by the Sheraton group. I'm sure you can get better accomodations but I don't look any further that my local Sheraton, Westin or W when traveling. There are no surprises - I expect clean, comfortable rooms, a friendly, helpful staff, good food and close proximity to whatever it is I'm there in that city to see. Period. And I'm not trying to spend an arm and a leg to get all this.

    With that said - The Westin Peachtree Plaza is a dime piece of a hotel right in the middle of downtown Atlanta. This hotel is an extremely tall cylinder with rooms facing out with huge floor to ceiling unobstructed views of the city. Absolutely Breathtaking.

    And if you want your breathtaken again go to the top of the hotel to the Sundial resturant to dine. It revolves.

  • One of the top end hotels in Atlanta downtown, one of the Starwood/Sheraton members.

    The room is large with a simple and decent deco: white linens, black and white photos (my favorite) all over the hotel including in the bed room and bath room, Mahogony color funiture, equipped with internet access.

    The wall right in front of the bed is a whole piece of glass through which one can have a grand view of the Olympic Park and CNN etc below (my room was on the 57th). I was sitting in the bed and watching the beautiful sunset for two hours (No, sun does not set in one second!).

    The bathroom is simple but adequate. The room has a robe and safe, plus a minibar that I never use. The carpets are rather old and stained, so as the comtemperary style half-moon shape couch. But it did not bother me enjoying the view of the city.

    Concierge has a thick book of info of local restaurants and their menu, so make your choice.

    It seems to constantly have many conferences going on everyday (the reason why I was here this time).

    The unique thing is that it has a rotating restaurant on its 72nd floor (not open to general public unless either you are a customer of the restaurant or a hotel guest). Taking the clear cylindar elevator from the 5th floor, in 90 seconds, you will be on top of the Atlanta for a panoramic view. The restaurant rotates every 60 minutes/round, the bar, 35 minutes. Telescopes are provided for further details.

    The meeting chartered the hotel for the lunches. The food was healthy and of fine quality.

  • Directions: Take MARTA northbound train to Peachtree Center station ($1.75), out of Harris St exit, you will not miss it. It is at the southwest corner of International and Peachtree St (never forget Atlanta has 42 roads named with Peachtree, ave, dr, st, pl etc)
