Atlanta
W Buckhead
Located in Buckhead, just a seven-minute walk from Lenox Square and Phipps Plaza, the W Atlanta – Buckhead opened in 2008 as part of the Starwood boutique brand. Celebrity designer Thom Filicia, formerly of Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, designed the hotel’s 291 guestrooms, featuring high-tech artwork, eclectic light fixtures, and rainforest showers. Additionally, the hotel offers an infinity-edge pool overlooking Peachtree Road; a popular rooftop bar; and Market, a New American restaurant from renowned chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten. W Atlanta – Buckhead is also known for its 24-hour Whatever/Whenever® concierge service, which handles everything from restaurant reservations to sporting event tickets.
Room to Book:
For a quiet stay, book a high number room (such as 830) between floors two and eight. These rooms are located away from the rooftop bar and the busy road.
Insider Tip:
Guests often complain about the dimness of the rooms; if you prefer more light, feel free to request brighter bulbs.
