There is literally no reason to stay or even visit downtown Atlanta. Much more to see and do in Midtown, West Midtown, Eastside Beltline, or even Buckhead.

Of course! Who could forget the famous The Varsity in downtown Atlanta! Love that place, especially their onion rings!! The best I've ever had.

The Varsity -- World's Largest Drive-In


Phipps Plaza/Lenox Square in Buckhead...Saks Fifth Avenue, Nordstrom, Gucci, Dolce & Gabbana, Tiffany & Co., Van Cleef & Arpels, Neiman-Marcus, Bloomingdale's, Chanel -- sorry, no Walmarts here!

Other than the convenience of being walking distance to the dome or Phillips or the WCC I would agree. The area around Mercedes and Phillips has PLENTY of bars and restaurants and many of them are VERY good, the problem is that anyone who is scared Buckhead is going to be fricking TERRIFIED in those places. They are perfectly safe and the neighborhood is also for the most part...but the are is a little less sanitized than most of Atlanta. You could eat at a different restaurant every night and it would take a couple of lifetimes to get to them all.

This guy knows. Downtown sucks. Tourist traps and office buildings.
