Atlanta! Hotlanta!
In Atlanta, the possibilities
are endless. Atlanta has long been known as a prime site for meetings,
conventions, and trade shows, and is consistently ranked as one of the top five
convention cities in the country.
Atlanta earned this reputation
with its first-class hotels, transportation, and meeting facilities, but Atlanta
is much more than a meeting destination. The city has developed into the
entertainment and cultural center of the South with more than 18 million
visitors arriving each year to experience the attractions, culture, and
entertainment that are abundant in Atlanta.
World-class restaurants, festive
nightlife, exciting sports teams, and an abundance of cultural attractions and
events help make Atlanta the center for entertainment in the South. Atlanta’s
diverse restaurants feature cuisine from around the globe prepared by
world-renowned chefs and served in an endless array of ambience and décor.
Culture and history are front
and center in Atlanta. Visitors to Atlanta’s many theaters, museums, galleries,
concert halls, and family attractions can experience diverse art, drama, dance,
and music. To thoroughly enjoy Atlanta’s present, all one has to do is
experience the city’s past. From
Atlanta’s role in the Civil War
to the celebration of the 1996 Centennial Olympic Games, Atlanta’s historical
attractions promise a day filled with education and entertainment.
Atlanta has become the
entertainment capital of the South because of its abundance of attractions and
exciting venues. The Georgia Aquarium, the largest in the world, houses
more than 100,000 freshwater and saltwater fish and animals in more than 8
million gallons of water. Trace the history of the world’s most popular soft
drink at the World of Coca-Cola. Go inside the Cable News Network
(CNN) with an Inside CNN Atlanta studio tour of their worldwide
headquarters. Make friends with pandas at Zoo Atlanta, one of only four
zoos in the country to feature the animal. See where “Gone with the Wind” was
written at the Margaret Mitchell House. And take a stroll through
Centennial Olympic Park and watch the dancing Olympic ringshaped
fountains.
With more than 745 hotel
properties designed to accommodate any budget, Atlanta’s hotels offer the finest
in service and amenities. Atlanta is accessible, with 80 percent of the United
States’ population within a two-hour flight of the city. From the heart of
downtown, visitors can reach the many attractions, entertainment venues,
restaurants, and neighborhoods with a short ride by cab, bus or rail. And,
Atlanta’s rapid rail and bus system, MARTA, has 38 stations and 125 bus routes
covering the metropolitan area at a cost of $1.75.For more information on
