  • The tub/shower combo is not my favorite, but temperature and pressure were fine. 4

  • For the first category of location, this is a 7 out of 10. The hotel is close to the Brave Stadium and is great for conferences, but there's not many attractions around the hotel. Sure, you can walk to a few restaurants here and there, but you're right next to the highway and I think the main factor of picking this for location is going to be the proximity to the Brave Stadium. 92:53
  • While its location may not be the most convenient for tourists - its about 12 miles north of downtown Atlanta - the Renaissance Atlanta Waverly Hotel offers a quiet setting. 11

Room

read from 1 source · Deep coverage
  • The living room was large and well furnished. It included two chairs, a sofa, a table, and a large TV. 4
  • The chair near the window was comfortable and held my suitcase during my visit. 4

Service

  • For the service, I thought it was a 10 out of 10. The staff were very nice and super friendly at the restaurants and the front desk got me checked in pretty quickly. 93:09
  • I arrived at the hotel around 4:00 PM and was informed that I was upgraded to a suite. It was ready. The agent was friendly, and efficient. 4

No reviewer has yet described a room, floor or aspect specifically enough to act on at this property. Room intelligence appears here the moment they do.

Room3 mentions · 1 filmed
  • Lastly, for the room, I thought it was a 7 out of 10. The room was your typical room expectation for one of these types of hotels. Thought it was a bit dated, and while the carpet was soft and the bed was comfy, there was not many lights in the room and the light switches were placed in kind of random places. On camera93:31

    A bar of Aveda soap was on the counter. This is the standard brand for Renaissance Hotels and I like it.
