Atlanta's supremely located Aloft hotel is steps from Centennial Olympic Park and peppered with personality (rare for the city's hotels). From the odd but interesting outdoor front patio to a colorful lobby brimming with glittery pop art from a formerly homeless artist and a purple-felt pool table, its playful attitude is refreshing and fun. Rooms are more spacious than most.
Due to its size (almost double that of a normal Aloft with 254 rooms), it was a pilot program for the brand's new takeout-pot-breakfast concept, which launched in 2018, and it's one of the few with a happy hour seven days a week ($5 drinks and $5 food items) from 4pm to 6pm. Parking runs $30 to $35.
