The Kimpton Sylvan Hotel in Atlanta has officially opened its doors. Tucked away in the neighborhood of Buckhead, the property is a 1950s-era adaptive reuse boutique hotel with a midcentury modern design scheme, complemented by a splash of understated sophistication and heartfelt Southern hospitality.
The hotel includes 217 guestrooms, a vibrant living room lobby, a private pool, and over 4,000 square feet of meetings and events space.
