When it comes to luxury stays in Atlanta, not all five-star experiences are created equal. From iconic names like The Ritz-Carlton and Four Seasons to design-forward newcomers like Nobu, the city’s top hotels offer more than just a place to sleep—they deliver style, service, and a sense of place. Whether you’re in town for a quick power trip, a spa weekend, or just want to wake up to a flawless view of the Buckhead skyline, these are the properties that do it best.

There’s a reason the Four Seasons Atlanta is an icon. It’s timeless, elegant, and consistently delivers on its promise of five-star everything. From spacious suites and marble bathrooms to the buzzing cocktail lounge and serene pool, it’s a Midtown mainstay that feels as relevant now as it did when it opened. It’s also perfectly situated near Piedmont Park, the High Museum, and the city’s best cultural spots—if you can tear yourself away from the spa.

Downtown doesn’t get more polished than this. The Ritz is refined, quietly glamorous, and made for those who like their city stays with a side of impeccable service and a very good steak. It’s walking distance to major attractions and business hubs, but you may never want to leave the Club Lounge (think skyline views and nightly wine tastings) or your marble bathroom. The energy here is classic Ritz: dignified, luxurious, and built for guests who appreciate the art of doing everything well.

This one’s all about serenity in the city. Designed by starchitect Robert A.M. Stern, the Waldorf feels like an elegant private residence—only better. From oversized soaking tubs and Buckhead skyline views to the sanctuary-like spa (indoor lap pool, infrared sauna, vitality pools, and one of the best massages in town), it’s the kind of place where time slows down. And yes, the service is as flawless as you’d expect from a Waldorf.

The Whitley has a low-key cool factor that hits just right. It’s stylish without being overdone, luxurious without trying too hard. The vibe here is modern Southern—think tailored interiors, elevated amenities, and a bar that’s surprisingly great for a nightcap. It’s also in the heart of Buckhead, so you’ve got easy access to Atlanta’s best dining and shopping. Bonus: the indoor pool and spa are a welcome retreat after a day exploring the city.
Nobu Hotel Atlanta

Equal parts sleek and seductive, Nobu Atlanta is where design lovers, tastemakers, and those in-the-know go to stay (and be seen). The look is ultra-minimal and luxurious, with floor-to-ceiling windows, a rooftop saltwater pool, and the type of furnishings you’ll want to photograph. Of course, the restaurant is the scene—Nobu never disappoints—and this location takes it to another level with private dining rooms and a next-level bar program. Modern luxury, with a distinctly Nobu attitude.
The St. Regis Atlanta
The St. Regis is what happens when European elegance meets Southern polish. It’s all sweeping staircases, sparkling chandeliers, and suites outfitted with the kind of details (iPad controls, Frette linens, marble everywhere) that make luxury feel effortless. The pool piazza is a dream—complete with butler service—and the Remède Spa is pure indulgence. If you want classic glamour with all the smart, modern touches, this is it.

Tucked into the heart of Atlanta’s most exclusive neighborhood, the InterContinental Buckhead Atlanta has long set the gold standard for luxury in the city. Since its debut in 2004, this Buckhead icon has drawn discerning travelers with its polished service, prime location, and refined elegance—and now, following a dramatic top-to-bottom transformation, it’s more compelling than ever. The reimagined property features 422 beautifully appointed rooms, including three lavish Presidential-style suites, plus a completely redesigned Club InterContinental lounge perched on the 21st floor with sweeping skyline views. Guests can indulge at The Americano, the hotel’s modern Italian-American restaurant from celebrity chef Scott Conant, unwind in the year-round heated saltwater pool, or escape to the serene Spa InterContinental, a world-class wellness destination that opened in 2022. Expansive gardens, versatile event spaces, and a coveted Buckhead address—just minutes from Atlanta’s top cultural and culinary attractions—make it equally appealing for business or pleasure. Sophisticated, stylish, and effortlessly welcoming, InterContinental Buckhead Atlanta remains one of the city’s most distinguished stays.
