My husband & I have stayed at this hotel 5 times. We lived 2 hours south of the city & would stay at the Intercontinental when we went to concerts or shows. This is a gorgeous and truly luxurious hotel & has definitely earned a 4 star. The rooms are so comfortable & the beds are like sleeping on a cloud. The bathroom is beautiful with black and white marble, deep soaking tub & a separate shower. You are close to two high end malls & many other shopping plazas. If you want to stay in Buckhead, this is the place to be.

Hotels I have stayed in for a long while. Stayed on the club level with free wine all day, canapes during the evening, high tea in the afternoon and breakfast in the morning. Didn't want to get out of the bed it was so comfortable. Everything about the hotel was great. Atlanta's layout is a bit strange. There is downtown, midtown and Buckhead. Buckhead is nice with a huge mall and plently of restaurants including Mortens Steak.

We had a wonderful stay and would come back and stay in the Club level again. As is often reviewed with other hotels in the area (Bulkhead), the nightlife crowd can add an element to the hotel bar they may or may not appeal to you. For us, it was not appealing. Because we are from Atlanta we prepared for this by staying on Club level where the atmosphere was calm, the staff impeccable, and we were able to have a few cocktails in a more quiet environment. As has appeared in many reviews, Atlanta has a large, mostly Hip Hop, music scene which often draws many partiers to the Buckhead area on weekends. This may or may not appeal to you so plan accordingly when visiting during the weekend. The Intercontinental offers a fabulous complimentary shuttle service that can be used to reach upscale shopping and fantastic restaurants. I would definitely encourage speaking to the concierge about restaurant suggestions when visiting!

I stayed here for 3 nights December 16-19 on business. Its a very nice
hotel and I think a solid 4 star. The lobby is beautiful and its in a great location if you have business in Buckhead. The average room is well appointed, but a bit small. There is a separate tub and shower, which is nice. The Club rooms are the same size as the regular rooms but offer free wireless (otherwise $15/day) and upgraded shampoo etc.

The rooms are in good condition and mine was quiet, which was nice. I would stay here again if on business. I got a discounted rate through the American Bar Association, which made it about $200 a night, which was a great rate and well worth it.
