Courtyard By Marriott Atlanta Buckhead

“Valet rocks!”

The valet attendant named Shadow was an amazing valet host! He showed so much professionalism and support during my stay. The entire team was great! Courtyard staff was amazing as well. I will definitely revisit this location in the future.

“Typical modern, chain hotel among several others”

First thing to know about most of the modern, chain hotels in the Buckhead area is that the Marta subway system is the way to get to them.

First thing to know about most of the modern, chain hotels in the Buckhead area is that the Marta subway system is the way to get to them. The Red Line, for example, will take you right from Hartsfield-Jackson Airport to the Buckhead Station. We had no trouble using this system to get to Buckhead, and from there to Peachtree Center, where most of Atlanta’s attractions are within walking distance. That there is a plethora of hotels near this station means that you can’t just walk out of this station and expect to easily find this, or any other hotel. It was thus a blessing that Marta has supplied clear & helpful signs in the station to help anyone wanting to know which direction to walk from the station. It’s a pretty easy, five-minute walk from there to the Courtyard. Take the south exit of the Buckhead Station, and go up the first stairs (or take the elevator) you come to. Turn right as you exit the station, and do NOT cross over the Peachtree Road. If you pass South City Kitchen on your right, you're going in the correct direction. The first intersection with a traffic light you come to will be Tower Place Drive, and Courtyard is just block from here. Because the hotel hosting the conference we were attending was just a five minute walk away from the Courtyard, we made the (fairly easy) decision to stay here & walk to the conference hotel. If you’re attending a conference in the Buckhead area, you should compare prices for all hotels in the area, and compare them to the conference hotel. Our room had full bath, phone, fridge, AC, iron & board, hair dryer, coffee maker, and TV with 40 channels. It was clean & well-maintained, but construction on the floor below us during the day was somewhat distracting. Free amenities include wifi (quite good), indoor pool, exercise room, and computers with printers in the lobby. There is cost for parking at the hotel. There are restaurants within the hotel, and several within walking distance nearby. A small market selling a few munchies (at hotel prices) is available 24/7. Staff was friendly & efficient. If you have business in the Buckhead area, or if you don’t mind riding Marta to downtown Atlanta, this place can be a good choice.
