My wife and I just stayed at the J W Marriott Buckhead this past weekend and were pleasantly surprised to find it such a nice and convenient hotel. For starters we had room 2118, which must be the best in the place. I sat on the marble topped desk and gazed out the windowed wall at the most spectacular view framing downtown Atlanta in the distance. At night, the room's wall of windows was like a postcard or a painting. The service from car drop off through checkout was exactly what I'm looking for, solicitous, friendly and helpful. Even the room service was a surprise, with the breakfast fruit plate being assorted berries and crème fresh. Our room was spacious and the bed was superior and well pillowed with fine linens. Marble bathroom, of course. The best thing about this hotel was its convenient location in relation to the Lenox Square mall. You simply walk to the mall through a carpeted corridor and you are there to do all your shopping without using your car or taxi or being exposed to the weather. Between eating at the mall's Prime steakhouse, filling up on Godiva chocalate, bringing back to the room Panera rolls and tea from Tevana and enjoying fabulous appletinis at the Marriott's bar we really didn't need to leave the hotel (or mall) if we didn't want to.

Stayed one night on the 25th floor (concierge level). Room was wonderful. Nice big bathtub, great views. But valet parking is expensive ($24) plus tipping seemed expected when you leave with car and come back. Called Guest Services to request car be brought to front. Message never relayed to Bell Captain. No apology given, just instruction on what number to call in the future. Also seemed that for $400 a night, you should get free wireless internet in your room or at least in the concierge lounge. Breakfast in the lounge was wonderful. Great view of downtown Atlanta. Staff were overall nice and helpful. Good southern hospitality.

We stayed at this wonderful Hotel by chance. We first stayed at another Marriott Hotel located in Buckhead that was terrible and decided to get another hotel and almost didn't stay here because of that one, but we were glad we did when we entered the Hotel.
The decor was beautifully done and you felt welcomed as you walked in.
They greeted us first thing and were very helpful from the start of reservations to check out and in between. The weather turned bad while we were there and we needed to rebook a flight and reserve a room again and they even helped us get into another room quickly and with no difficulties. Which eased the stressful situation we found ourselves in as our flight was cancelled. Thank you very much for looking after our needs to Carolyn Fahey at the front desk and your team we appreciate your efforts very much, you were fantastic! Everyone one we spoke with was friendly and professional. The rooms were very clean and the beds were very comfy. Linens were beautiful and clean. Plenty of room to move around and the bathroom was roomy as well. The extras made you feel pampered. The decor was lovely. Whenever we come again to Atlanta Buckhead we will most definitely want to stay here again.

We stayed at the Mariott Buckhead-Atlanta this summer for a couple of days while my son was attending camp. Let me first say that all aspects of this hotel was wonderful. During that week it was also my son's birthday. Let me first say that our room was very nice, even though it was the standard room. We had beautiful, very fluffy down comforters and nice pillows on the bed. My two boys were very impressed with the room and the robes, and the toiletries were very nice. The staff was the nicest I have ever experienced. The staff went to the trouble of having a birthday cake baked for my son, decorated it beautifully, brought us bottled water, plates, forks, etc. My son was thrilled. We also enjoyed the spa and the indoor pool. The staff went out of their way to make sure our stay was perfect. What a great staff and wonderful hotel. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone traveling to downtown Atlanta!
