Atlanta, the capitol of the New South, is the perfect place to visit year-round to get a mixture of southern hospitality and city sophistication. When staying in town, make Four Seasons Hotel your home away from home. The upscale hotel is located in the Midtown neighborhood, which is the cultural center of the city. There are 226 elegant rooms and 18 luxurious suites in the Five-Diamond, Five-Star hotel. The on-site health club has a chlorine-free pool, free weights, cardiovascular equipment, and sauna and steam rooms for relaxation and detoxification. As a dining option, choose Park 75, the hotel’s Mobil Four-Star oasis, which serves a New American cuisine.
