The Sheraton Atlanta occupies a premium location in the central business district: close to the convention center, Georgia State University and Centennial Olympic Park. The park offers a public ice rink in winter and hosts inexpensive public music concerts in summer. A MARTA station close to the downtown Atlanta hotel offers easy access to Hartsfield International Airport, the nifty Buckhead neighborhood of upscale shopping and nightclubs, midtown Atlanta and pro sports venues. The hotel's 17,000 square feet of garden and poolside space surround an indoor/outdoor pool with a retractable roof. Recreational facilities also include a 24 hour fitness center stocked with the latest equipment. For dining, guests can pick from 24 hour room service or Spanish tapas at the hotel's elegant Fandangles, the buffet at The Collage or sandwiches, soups and salads at The Deli. Newly refurbished guestrooms feature desk areas, phones with data ports, plush top mattresses with thick down covers and triple sheeting, robes and trouser presses. Contemporary decor includes salmon and purple hues and broad, playful stripes. In mid 2004, the hotel completed a $42 million renovation, resulting in a practically new place. Although the Sheraton is oriented towards business travelers and conventioneers, the accommodations, amenities and location close to everything also should please leisure guests.
