A great experience from start to finish; but the icing on the cake was experiences we had towards the end of our stay.
Sunday morning valet service with Kodi and Brandon was quick, friendly, and seamless. They even offered us water, which was thoughtful, and handled everything with ease.
At the front desk, Taral was attentive and incredibly helpful. She took the time to walk us through options for future stays, explaining the nuances of different room types and highlighting the various spaces available.
Breakfast at Tiny Lou’s was the perfect close to our stay thanks to Antoine. He gave excellent recommendations, including the chicken and pimento cheese biscuit for me and the steak for my husband. His contagious smile, and welcoming demeanor made it clear he enjoys serving.
This team made us feel welcome; can’t wait to return!

My husband and I had a little weekend getaway for his sister in law's birthday. The location was perfect, beautiful hotel in side & out. Spacious room, comfy bed, great shower! Will definitely stay here again in the future. Thank you Clermont for a wonderful stay!

Remodeled & Revived Atlanta institution. Welcomed with the perfect hospitality experience by Brandon, the rooms are spotless, well appointed & comfortable. Tarell at the front desk was stellar at smoothing out hiccups.
Basement staff is a different world, so be sure you don't confuse the two, they are the same building but worlds apart.

What a wildly charming stay at the iconic Hotel Clermont on Ponce de Leon!
This historic gem, built back in 1924 as upscale apartments before becoming the legendary Clermont Motor Hotel (complete with its storied basement Lounge since the ‘60s), got a fabulous glow-up in 2018 and feels like Atlanta’s coolest retro dream come true. The decor is pure eclectic magic - stately yet playful, with that perfect mix of vintage swagger and modern flair.
My wife and I fell hard for our spacious suite; it was so inviting and comfy that I half-jokingly threatened to barricade the door and claim squatter’s rights (don’t worry, we checked out… after they extended us a 12:30pm checkout time at no extra cost!). The staff? Incredibly friendly and personable - everyone from the front desk to the valets made us feel like old friends.
Tiny Lou’s, the French-American brasserie downstairs (named after a legendary dancer from the hotel’s wilder days), is hands-down exceptional - way beyond typical hotel fare, with dishes that had us raving. And the lobby bar? Fantastic! The lead bartender crafted me an unforgettable Old Fashioned infused with premium smoked bacon fat-rich, smoky perfection in a glass.
Valet parking is on the pricier side, but the service is top-notch and worth it in this bustling spot. One fun note: the basement’s famous Clermont Lounge adds serious character to the vibe (it’s been rocking since 1965!), but it can get lively and loud on Friday/Saturday nights. No big deal - the rooms thoughtfully come stocked with white noise machines and earplugs.
Overall, Hotel Clermont nails that rare blend of history, quirk, and genuine hospitality. We can’t wait to return!
