“You can do better”

Georgia Tech Hotel and Conference Center

2 of 5 stars
Washington, DC
Feb 13, 2008

I stayed at this hotel for several nights on business. The room rate was definitely right, but I would be reluctant to return.

When my colleague and I arrived around 3 in the afternoon, we were told it was too early to check in and had to wait. This was definitely an inconvenience, but we understood their constraints and killed a couple of hours.

Once we finally got checked in and settled, I was pleased to find my room was spacious and very clean. As the nights passed, however, I became extremely displeased with the bed. It was so uncomfortable, mostly owing to the flimsy pillows, that by the end of the trip I had developed serious neck pain.

During the stay, I was further frustrated to find the WiFi was not free. I'm sure they make a lot of money off this, but I found it annoying and unnecessary. Especially since the room I was in had its rate posted at over $300 per night... had I actually been paying that much, I would have assumed the hotel could toss in a little wireless service.

The final straw came when I attempted to order room service. Due to work, I didn't return to my room until almost midnight one evening and was eager to order room service as I was starving. Come to find out the kitchen closed at 10.

While the hotel was definitely clean and safe, and the rooms were spacious and maybe even a little luxurious, I would definitely expect more from it based on all that. Especially if I had been paying the posted rate.

“Would not stay here again!!”

Georgia Tech Hotel and Conference Center

2 of 5 stars
Savannah, GA
Nov 16, 2007
1/2 found this review helpful

Be careful if you are a woman traveling alone! I dropped my son off for an overnight visit at GA Tech. I chose this hotel because it was close by and I thought the hotel would be safe for me (since I was alone). As I unloaded my suitcases in the hotel's parking garage, I was approached and harrassed by two men who said they were homeless and wanted money. There was not another person or security guard in sight. I gave them money, reported this to the front desk clerk (didn't seem very concerned), went straight to my room & ordered room service and did not leave again until the next morning. Next time I'll stay in another area of town. I have traveled alone before and stayed in places not nearly as pricey and nice as this hotel, but have never felt uncomfortable being alone as I did here.

“True Sounthern Hospitality”

Georgia Tech Hotel and Conference Center

1/1 found this review helpful

What made this hotel stand out from many others that I've stayed is the staff. They were extremely hospitable, genuinely kind, and helpful. The cuisine in the restaurant was excellent, I had the lunch buffets three times which was consistently very good.
The rooms were very clean, spacious and nice.
My sister in law is handicapped and the staff really went out of their way to make sure we were happy. The restaurant staff, in particular was so kind and caring. Thank you and we will be sure to stay at your wonderful hotel on our future visits.

“Friendly staff-good location”

Georgia Tech Hotel and Conference Center

Sep 5, 2007
1/1 found this review helpful

Stayed here over the labor day weekend. Found the staff to be exceptional. Nice location, tho seemed farther from the Atlanta Aquarium than the website listed...(it might be 0.7 miles but seemed much farther when walking, especially over sections of crappy sidewalk, so I don't recommend the walk.) Nice pool and workout room. Found most aspects of the hotel to be first rate.
Anyway, the only negative I could offer? --The Paper Thin Walls!
You'll hear everything above a wisper from the hallways and hear every door open and close on your floor. Seriously. I'm not exaggerating. I mentioned this on checkout and got a knowing response. They say they hear that all the time from guests.
Why management hasn't done something about it, like installing sound-dampening panels in the halls is beyond me.
Given the choice I would try to stay somewhere else, but if you do stay here, let management know you were bothered too, then maybe they will do something about it.
The pain was lessened by the good rate I got online!

“Wonderful and Quiet Place to Stay”

Georgia Tech Hotel and Conference Center

4 of 5 stars
New York
Jul 25, 2007
1/1 found this review helpful

My stay at the Georgia Tech Hotel was great. The staff was helpful and the room was clean and adequate. I would definitely return to this Hotel in the future. It was two blocks from Peachtree and 10 minutes from all attractions. The Varsity was a few blocks down and we had a great time and meal there. My grandson used the pool and had a great time there. We also ate in the Dining Room in the Hotel and was quite pleased with the service and the food.
