Glenn Hotel, Autograph Collection

Sitting less than a block from Centennial Olympic Park, the CNN Center and Philips Arena, this boutique Autograph Collection hotel (owned by Marriott) is perfect for Atlanta newcomers as well as luxury-seekers. Recent guests say that the Glenn's staff members are some of the friendliest in town and can help make your stay as stress-free as possible by providing information on the city's best restaurants and things to do. When it comes time to call it a night, grab a bite to eat at Glenn's Kitchen or a cocktail at the SkyLounge before retiring to your room, which comes equipped with free wireless Internet access and Lather bath products. Although recent guests praise this hotel, they do warn that the Glenn is subject to downtown noise during the night, and note that the housekeeping staff isn't very thorough. Because the Glenn is a member of the Marriott family, Marriott Rewards members can earn and redeem points here.
