But we've never stayed at the Four Seasons. It seems like the nicer property these days - especially if location doesn't matter (and it doesn't to us - we'll be doing things both in Midtown and in Buckhead). Is my impression correct?
Has anyone dined at either hotel restaurant recently? Robyn
I'm assuming there is a typo in your post and you meant the "Ritz Carlton Buckhead."
I've stayed at both RC properties and the FS (many times) and there is no question that the FS is a better hotel. The service is excellent and the rooms are pleasant. Also, except for shopping I actually think the FS is a much better location. Midtown is the scene of much activity these days and is also easier to get around. Traffic in Buckhead is gridlock much of the time.
The FS restaurant is Parc 75. Small but exquisite food and service. A little on the quiet side, but I have had several good meals there. The Sunday brunch is particularly good.
