This Week's New (or Improved) Hotels

The Comfort Suites Downtown is downtown Atlanta's first hotel from that venerable chain.  It's also their first "adaptive reuse project", created inside an existing historic building on Peachtree Street.  Anyone choosing to stay in one of the hotel's 156 rooms gets an "urban" design, free WiFi, complimentary breakfast, business center and fitness center.

 

The Sebastian Vail is now welcoming ski-loving guests.  Formerly known as the Vail Plaza Hotel and Club, it's a "boutique" level luxury hotel with just 100 rooms and seven suites - all with custom-designed furnishings.
