Compiling a guide for ATL- please contribute!
 

The D.C. metro area has its own sticky. So does LA. Heck, even the Emerald City has one. So, I thought why not make one for our beautiful city of Atlanta? :) :p

I should be able to complete a preliminary guide by the end of this week. It mainly comprises of information gathered from fellow FTers, guides and my personal experiences.

However, there are a few areas that I cannot cover in more detail such as personal recommendations for the best restaurants catering to different cuisines (Indian, Chinese, cheap eats anyone?), dining/visiting tips for nearby towns etc. I'd really appreciate it if someone could chip in with their suggestions! Thanks!

I love driving down to Atlanta for a weekend getaway. I'd be very interested in hearing from everyone.

I stayed at the Renaissance downtown. It's close enough to walk to the downtown area, but still away from everything. I loved it, excellent service (room service and concierge). Great view of downtown from our balcony; wonderful beds.

I've eaten at the Sundial Restaurant a few times; proposed there last Feb. 10th... Rotating restaurant on the 72nd floor of the Westin Hotel. Some say it's overpriced, but I think it's reasonable for a good quality steak place. The money is worth the view of the city as the sun sets.

Very good snap, Majik! Wish you had used a high-res digicam for an even better picture.
