The Westin Peachtree Plaza

Atlanta, Georgia

Virgin rating

The hotel

A statement hotel, this glass column stretches far above neighbouring high rises to give unrivalled views over Atlanta through its floor-to-ceiling windows. To top it all off, literally, it’s capped with The Sun Dial, a three-tiered venue featuring a revolving restaurant, rotating cocktail lounge, and observatory floor with 360-degree views, all reached by an external glass elevator that scales the glazed cylinder in just 85 seconds. Far below, on the 11th floor, the indoor pool’s just as spectacular, with its curved glass roof folding away to let in the sun on hot Atlanta days. To celebrate its 40th anniversary in 2016, the Westin Peachtree Plaza was treated to a $70 million renovation, adding extras like BikeWESTIN cycles, and turning this statuesque pillar into one of downtown Atlanta’s most up-to-date pads.

Great location, great staff, great amenities but the room itself can definitely use an upgrade. I assumed they banked on the floor to ceiling windows for natural light, but it doesn't really work after sunset. If you aren't patient, the elevator situation would suck, but I also in town for an extremely busy weekend, so results may vary. If I… Read more

I booked this hotel for my college son and his friends. I paid in advance so they would not have an issue at check in. Imagine my surprise when my 20 year old son called and the hotel was asking how they were paying. I offered to give my card via phone or email and was told they could not do that. This created a frustrating experience that was… Read more

Imagine my surprise when my 20 year old son called and the hotel was asking how they were paying. I offered to give my card via phone or email and was told they could not do that. This created a frustrating experience that was not resolved in any type of way that ever makes me want to stay at this hotel or any marriot property again.

Stayed two nights. Location within walking distance of several attractions and restaurants, and easily reachable by subway. Nice view from the 36th floor. Fast elevators with very short wait.

Stayed two nights. Location within walking distance of several attractions and restaurants, and easily reachable by subway. Nice view from the 36th floor. Fast elevators with very short wait. No noise from the street, but I could hear some conversations in the rooms nearby and a frequent intermittent noise that sounded like a train (I assume it was the elevator). Ear plugs and white noise essential. The room had old carpet, but was clean and reasonably well appointed (coffe maker, cooler, water bottles), with the exception of a few lapses: desk lamp not plugged in (and it was difficult to reach the outlet behind the desk), phone not working. Very comfortable bed and pillows. Plenty of well located power sockets. Well lit desk area (with the lamp plugged in). Bathroom with everything in working order and standard toiletries. Wifi was on the slow side, and it took several attempts to get the login page on my laptop (not an uncommon occurrence in many hotels). Friendly staff. Read less

DO NOT BOOK! The elevator takes 10-15 minutes which made me late for work and I wasn’t able to get breakfast. My room key needed to be reset 1-3x per day to get to my floor on the elevator. They have no concierge and only have 1 person in the lobby to handle check in or any other issue you may have… which you will to get your card to work to get… Read more
