These five hotels in Downtown Atlanta are ordered by walking distance to the nearest MARTA station, shortest first, and the higher star rating wins a tie. They run from mid-range to upscale, whether you're here for a convention at the Georgia World Congress Center or to explore Centennial Olympic Park.
How we ranked the top hotels in Downtown Atlanta
Every hotel on this list is inside the Downtown Atlanta boundary, going by each property's own address. Walk times are walking routes measured on OpenStreetMap at 20 minutes per mile, and star ratings come from the hotel data we book through. Amenities are listed only when the hotel's own website confirms them at the property level, not assumed from brand standards.

Tips for booking a Downtown Atlanta hotel
- Book early if your dates overlap with a major convention at the Georgia World Congress Center.
- SEC District and Vine City MARTA stations are on the Blue and Green lines, so change at Five Points for Red or Gold to Hartsfield-Jackson.
- Peachtree Center MARTA on the Red and Gold lines puts you within a 5-minute walk of several hotels on this list.
- Hotel garage parking in Downtown runs higher than you'd expect, so factor it in if you're driving.
What to expect from Downtown Atlanta hotels
Downtown Atlanta's hotels are in two clusters: the Centennial Park and Georgia World Congress Center corridor on the west side, and the Peachtree Street corridor running north toward Midtown. The Omni and the Westin, one from each cluster, are about a 9-minute walk apart.
The neighborhood draws a mix of convention attendees, sports fans heading to State Farm Arena and Mercedes-Benz Stadium, and leisure travelers using the area as a base for day trips.
Mid-range options like the Residence Inn Atlanta Downtown cost less than the upscale picks, while properties like the Omni Atlanta and Westin Peachtree Plaza push into premium pricing depending on the season. Dyme has a separate page for eco-friendly business hotels if sustainability credentials matter most to you.
