This is truly a gem in the Atlanta hotel arena. Where else can you stay where may of the cast of Gone With The Wind stayed for the premier of the movie at the Fox Theatre (which is directly across the street, BTW).
The room are very large, and while the decor is a little staid, it is charming, and you see what a magnificant place the hotel must have been in its heyday.
Pros: Large Rooms, Great Location
Cons: Decor is a Bit Dated

The price for the suite was reasonable, but I returned from a breakfast on the last day to find the door open and some electronics stolen. Aside from carrying all valuables with you, I would advise against staying at this hotel as it seems to be a recurring problem.
Pros: Cheap
Cons: Bad service, lax security

My experience at the hotel started off badly. I booked through Expedia 3 1/2 months in advance and had called to check on my reservation and told it was there, and there was no problem. I called again the morning I left on my trip and was again told everything was fine. When I got to the hotel the desk clerk (who was very friendly) told me that my reservation wasn't there and to take a seat while she called and found out what was going on. I sat there for half an hour before they figured it out. I got my key and headed up to the room and neither of my keys worked. They are electronic and it took about 10 minutes before they were active and I could get into my room. The room itself was great. The king size bed was fabulous and I could have slept for days on it. My only problems with the room was the fact that you have to pay $25 if you want any dishes so the full kitchen is kind of a waste. Also I have stayed at plenty of chain hotels for less than half the price that provide you with tons of small things like shower caps and grooming kits but when I discovered I had forgotten my toothpaste and checked the bathroom all I found was shampoo and conditioner. We ordered room service twice and the first time was great but on the second time around they forgot our dessert and messed up my husbands order. It's a beautiful hotel and I'm glad I experienced it but I would not stay there again.

I booked with the hotel (not a third party travel site) in advance for a double room with two queen beds. When I checked in, promptly at 3 pm (the earliest possible check in time) they didn?t have any double rooms available. They put me in a temporary room so I had some where to put my luggage, but told me not to unpack. They took my cell phone number so they could call me as soon as they had my double room available. When I came back from shopping and sight seeing, they had forgotten to deal with my room and still had nothing available. While they did lower my rate, the room I was in only had one bed and there were two of us staying in the room and the bed was not big enough for two (it seemed like a single bed) so one had to sleep on a pull out couch. The phone in the bed room didn?t work (luckily the one in the tv area did). The alarm clock didn?t work, and you had to wait about 5 minutes for the desk to pick up every time you called for a wake up call (or anything else). It?s a pretty hotel, but I?d never stay there again, and way too expensive for what you get.
Pros: Location
Cons: Service

Room was dated and creepy. Our bed was hard as a rock. There was a loud compressor sound outside our window all night. When I say 'loud', I mean construction-level loud. The hotel looks wonderful from the outside but the rooms just aren't up to par with a hotel of this class. I would recommend that you steer clear of this hotel.

The Georgian Terrace is one of those you must experience while in Atlanta. I get the whole antique and historic look thing, but the room was just ugly, old, unattractive and just out dated. For the cost and all the press about this hotel, I was quite disappointed that the rooms were so NOT sexxy. The location was great, especially because my evening plans included The Fox Theatre and Midtown dining, but an update and remodel is a definite order!
Pros: Heart of Midtown
Cons: Needs An Inerior Makeover

After a wedding couple reserved "x" amount of rooms for their wedding guests, I ( The best man) called to reserve a room a month before the wedding. The woman on the phone told me there were no more rooms available under the reserved rate due to an "expired" time period for the group wedding rate. I said "O.K" what else do you have open? She said a 1 room wtih a full size bed. (I don't even think any "super 8" motels or Holiday Inn's offer a bed as small as a full size bed, let alone a "upscale" hotel like this) I asked her "you don't have any queen or king size bed rooms available?" She said "no, I'm sorry sir, if you want a bigger bed then you'll have to reserve one of our larger rooms such as a suit." I stayed with the full size bed room and it was the worst hotel expierience I've ever had. The biggest problem was that the bed in my room was literally less than half a foot from the door. So I could hear every noise in the hall way all night by random guests, room service to other rooms throughout the night at all hours, and maids cleaning up neighboring rooms in the morning! The most "Sleepless" night that I've ever paid for!!! And the parking attendants had a bad attitude. This hotel has a great location, nice staff, but the product itself (the room) sucked!! Not to mention my A/C was broken when I arrived and I had to call the front desk twice to have it taken care of. Another thing is even as a "guest" of this hotel you still have to pay an additional $22.00 to park your car there for a night, which they failed to mention or ask about when I reseved a room.

I lived in Atlanta for years and never went here, now that I have moved away and had to come to town this weekend, I am so happy I came here.
My room was absolutely beautiful, the employees did everything to make sure I was happy and the bath was amazing.
I ate incredible food and met some really nice people.
When I travel back home, I will always stay here.
