My wife and I decided to do a weekend in Atlanta. We had the best time and the Intercontinental Hotel played a big part in making our trip great.
We stayed in a club level room for $319/night. It was expensive, but it was totally worth it. The room was great (comfy bed, beautiful bathroom, extremely clean). We had access to the club lounge which was awesome. They provided a complimentary breakfast, light lunch, afternoon tea, and evening drinks and appetizers. Did I mention they have all the beer and wine you can drink with no charge? The lounge overlooks Peachtree Street and is beautiful at night. We didn't use the mini-bar in the room because we could go to the Club Lounge and get everything there for free.
The fitness room is awesome. All of the equipment is Life Fitness (top of the line). The pool was beautiful and clean as well. We did not eat at the hotel restaurant, so I can't help you there. Parking was kind of expensive ($17/day), but come on, you're staying in Buckhead! Nothing is cheap in Buckhead. If you don't want to spend a little money, you better find some other part of town to stay in.
If you stay here, you must take the hotel shuttle (2008 Cadillac Escalade), which is complimentary. Willy was our driver. We had a blast riding with him and could've rode around with him all night if we didn't have plans. He makes it a lot of fun.
Lenox Square Mall is a hop and a skip away with awesome stores. There are also some great restaurants nearby. We ate at Lola's which was great.
I highly recommend the Intercontinental Hotel. Yes, it's expensive, but it's a beautiful hotel and is worth the money. Pay the extra money and get a Club Level room; it's worth it.
