Bathroom
74Food
89- “I haven't stayed at too many DoubleTrees (maybe 4?), but it is the nicest breakfast among those at which I've stayed. The breakfast is a buffet with a good variety of options, and the presentation is nice.” 2
- “The rooms are spacious and comfortable. They have a pretty tasty breakfast (usually tinga breakfast tacos).” 7
Location
80- “it's very close to the battery I mean literally walking distance down the down the hill and so you have plenty of shopping and restaurants in the area so it is very centrally located if you're coming to see a game or just want to visit The Battery area this is a great hotel to stay at” 45:01
- “Given the location, value for the points, and awesome upgrade, our stay at The American Hotel Atlanta Downtown is one of the best I've had within the Hilton chain.” 2
Noise
79- “The only thing I feel compelled to note is the fact that there is a very large HVAC unit outside the window several stories below. While the noise from this was noticeable, it wasn't especially loud and didn't impact our sleep.” 2
- “Renaissance you will hear engine run ups all night. And loudly. (Edit:) the hangars are right here so all hours maintenance checks” 7
Room
71- “😉 She wasn't kidding about the upgrade. She wasn't kidding about the upgrade. We were bumped up from a standard room to a very nicely appointed suite with a truly separate living area from bedroom.” 2
- “The view from our room decent, although the other end of the floor would probably have a view of the park.” 2
Service
71- “The staff kept everything very clean and tidy, and items were never empty. A very well run breakfast.” 2
- “And two grills. It looked like they had two waffle makers. They had a pancake maker. They had a yogurt dispenser. They had like hot sandwiches. They had like what looked like maybe where they put cheese and fruit. There seem to be like a lot of options. Nice.” 8
Bed & Sleep
75- “But I will give them kudos for putting kingsiz pillows on a king-size bed. But however, you only get one of those. As you can see, this is a queen. This is a king. And I believe they did the same on the other side.” 86:03

- “And two grills. It looked like they had two waffle makers. They had a pancake maker. They had a yogurt dispenser. They had like hot sandwiches. They had like what looked like maybe where they put cheese and fruit. There seem to be like a lot of options. Nice.” 8
- “the only critique I would say is that the indoor balconies kind of don't make sense but it was a nice touch to actually see down into the atrium of the lobby you know but at night you can hear it echoing up” On camera44:42
- “And the shuttle service will take and pick you up you any where within a 3 mile radius for your dinner options.” 7
- “The Kimpton has some nice suites that are reasonably priced and quite large.” 7
- “The staff kept everything very clean and tidy, and items were never empty. A very well run breakfast.” 2
- “Very stripped down like they just hang it on the thing in a bag. You do have some electrical plugs back here with a motion sensor nightlight. Towels, cups, and tissues are down here, as well as a laundry bag. Again, very, very stripped down. This is so basic. I've not seen a hotel this basic in a long time.” On camera82:45
- “So, you do have to pay for valet. And in the morning, they actually lost our car. So, it took a really long time for them to find it cuz they didn't realize where it was parked. And they took forever to try to find it.” On camera814:41
- “Check in was quick at the front desk, but we had one funny moment.” 2
- “The view from our room decent, although the other end of the floor would probably have a view of the park.” 2
- “And then over here we have the work desk area which as you can see is just big enough to fit Gary's book bag which isn't huge. And then bit of a rolly chair. Although this looks more comfortable than what I've seen in a lot of hotel rooms. The desk space is not huge but you could do work there if you had to.” On camera84:50
- “Over on the left hand side, you've got again multiple hooks. So, I guess if you want to hang up the I'm guessing they just think everybody wants to hang stuff up in this room because there's a lot of hooks and not a lot of like hidden storage. It's all very exposed.” On camera83:44
- “😉 She wasn't kidding about the upgrade. She wasn't kidding about the upgrade. We were bumped up from a standard room to a very nicely appointed suite with a truly separate living area from bedroom.” 2
- “Although there is no shortage of hotels in close proximity to the major Atlanta attractions clustered around the Centennial Olympic Park, The American Hotel Atlanta Downtown is one of the closest. It's a two block walk to SkyView Atlanta and the park.” 2
- “The last time I stayed there, I had asked for the airport shuttle at 5am but apparently the shuttle driver was MIA when I got downstairs. So, they called in a private driver for me. Props for the fixing of the mistake, though it did push my arrival to the airport out by 40 min while they sorted it all out.” 7
- “The American Hotel Atlanta Downtown is very close to Centennial Olympic Park, and the location provides great access to downtown Atlanta attractions.” 2
- “The last time we stayed near the airport we stayed at the Holiday Inn Express in Hapeville because I had IHG points to burn. Solid stay - would definitely stay there again and would be my pick for the future any time we want to stay close to the airport. It's also very convenient but quiet and clean.” 7
- “it's very close to the battery I mean literally walking distance down the down the hill and so you have plenty of shopping and restaurants in the area so it is very centrally located if you're coming to see a game or just want to visit The Battery area this is a great hotel to stay at” On camera45:01
- “Given the location, value for the points, and awesome upgrade, our stay at The American Hotel Atlanta Downtown is one of the best I've had within the Hilton chain.” 2

- “I haven't stayed at too many DoubleTrees (maybe 4?), but it is the nicest breakfast among those at which I've stayed. The breakfast is a buffet with a good variety of options, and the presentation is nice.” 2
- “Renaissance concourse is pretty fun for the views. The restaurant is decent for both dinner and breakfast. They have a good lounge if elite, but it closes on weekends. It can be very loud at night so I run my AC fan to mitigate that.” 7
- “Renaissance also has a restaurant (hence no free breakfast). They are both fine, just slightly different menus,” 7
- “I choose the homewood suites north every time I have to spend the night. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. They have a pretty tasty breakfast (usually tinga breakfast tacos).” 7
- “Renaissance concourse is pretty fun for the views. The restaurant is decent for both dinner and breakfast.” 7
- “I generally stay at the Renaissance (I like their restaurant, lounge is meh) or sometimes the Marriott.” 7
- “The rooms are spacious and comfortable. They have a pretty tasty breakfast (usually tinga breakfast tacos).” 7
- “Kimpton is nice enough. Restaurant is good.” 7
- “But I will give them kudos for putting kingsiz pillows on a king-size bed. But however, you only get one of those. As you can see, this is a queen. This is a king. And I believe they did the same on the other side.” On camera86:03
