These three hotels are within a 10-minute walk of Chamblee MARTA Station on Atlanta's Gold Line, which gives you direct rail access to Buckhead, Midtown, Downtown, and Hartsfield-Jackson without a car. We ranked them by verified walking distance to the station, then by star rating. The list covers budget, midscale, and extended-stay options so travelers at different price points have a workable choice near Doraville or Chamblee MARTA.
How we ranked these hotels
Walking distance to Chamblee or Doraville MARTA Station came first. Both stops are on the Gold Line and adjacent to each other, so hotels near either give you the same rail access. Within the same distance band, a higher star rating moved a hotel up, and ties broke on the shorter walk to the station. We confirmed each hotel is operating under its current name in 2026 and cut any property whose closest MARTA stop is actually on a different line, since that defeats the point of this list.

Getting the most out of Gold Line access
- Doraville is the northern end of the Gold Line, and Chamblee is one stop south. Trains from either run straight to Buckhead, Midtown, Downtown, and the airport with no transfers.
- MARTA trains run every 10 to 15 minutes at peak and every 20 minutes off-peak. Add 10 minutes to your plan if you're carrying checked luggage.
- Hartsfield-Jackson Airport is about 45 to 50 minutes from Doraville on the Gold Line. You stay on one train the whole way.
- Rideshare pickup is available right outside both station entrances if a bag-heavy morning makes the walk impractical.
Transit options beyond the Gold Line
MARTA bus routes 124 and 132 serve the Chamblee and Doraville corridor and connect to Buford Highway, where you can reach grocery stores, restaurants, and medical offices without a car. If you'd rather skip the walk at 6am before a flight, a rideshare from any hotel on this list to the station runs two to three minutes. That's a small cost for keeping the Gold Line ride on your side. Heading toward the city, Buckhead is the next major Gold Line hub with a wider range of hotels.
