Awesome! I have visited Atlanta for quite many occasions and I feel that the charm of this city definitely lives up to its expectations. I have a point to add that this city is nicknamed as Phoenix City because it was burnt to ashes during the Great Atlanta fire in 1917. But today the city has no evidences of the great fire left to display but all around magnificent buildings and architectural marvels speakings volumes of the developments it has seen in the last couple od decades.
Hmmmm… I’m sure to be headed here for a vacation. And soon too. Had been here on a one day business meet and found the cosmopolitan environment plus the entrepreneurial scenario to be real explosive. My wife, an avid culture vulture is going to love it. Its Hotlanta for me definitely!
Man O Man - the best time in a long long time. Awesome food. The platters had me gripped. And the all night stomping at the Lounge Inn left me exhilirated. Atlanta sure does have it all. Thanks for every arrangement - courtesy Downtown Hotels. Keep up the works.
