Description: This very nice Westin is in a prime business location in Atlanta's Concourse Business Park, and sits on a beautiful pond between the beautiful adjoining Concourse Towers office buildings in a nice setting of gardens and fountains. Fitness buffs should not miss the huge Concourse Athletic club next door, where you can treadmill, stairmaster, and much more while enjoying the view of the lake and fountain.
This Westin has 370 rooms and 6 suites on 20 floors and a lower concourse, and there is a huge attached parking garage (free). Even at 20 stories, the building is dwarfed while looking down from the 30th floor of the Concourse Tower across the lake.
There is a wall of windows across the back of the hotel providing a view of pond and gardens. You can enjoy the view from the Lakeside restaurant downstairs, and you can even sit outside in the garden next to the lake. The Lakeside Restaurant has breakfast and lunch buffets or you can order off the menu. They also have a dinner menu of seafood, steaks, and poultry. If you don't have time to sit and eat, there is a Starbucks. This Westin also has 24 hour room service.
The Westin has contemporary decor throughout the common areas and in the rooms. They have a lobby bar that seems to always have a friendly crowd of customers and employees. It provides a nice welcome to the end of a long day of business...almost as nice as the spotless rooms and lots of premium soaps to relax in a bath with. The rooms are extremely comfortable beds with nice down comforters. They have all the things you would expect in a high-end full-service business hotel, including dual line phones with data ports, safe for valuables, coffee makers with packages of Starbucks coffee, and a minibar.
They have a lot of support services too. They have a bunch of meeting rooms and facilities, secretarial and translator support.
This Westin is in a prime location for business travellers. As such, I suspect that they have great weekend rates when the business travellers are not around. Although this property is 15 minutes from downtown attractions, it is convenient to Buckhead, Parameter Shopping Mall, Lenox Square Mall, and lots of nice restaurants.
The Westin Atlanta North is located at 7 Concourse Parkway in the Concourse Business Park, near Atlanta-Perimeter/Ashford Dunwoody at I-285, well north of the airport and downtown. To get there, take I-85 North of the airport and downtown to 400 North exit. Exit 400 North at Glenridge Connector and turn right. Go to Ashford Dunwoody Road and turn left, and turn left at Hammond Road and look for the Concourse Entrance on your left. You can't miss the huge office towers. Enter the business park and drive to the left parameter of the park until you see the hotel parking garage. I really enjoyed my stay here.
