This hotel pretty much covers it all when it comes to being leisure, pet, family and business-friendly.

The location is in the heart of Buckhead close to shopping and restaurants, while access to the center of Atlanta is easy to reach via public transportation. Finally, business travelers can take advantage of the more than 35,000 square feet of flexible meeting space and complimentary Wi-Fi.
Fodor's Expert Review
Right in the heart of Buckhead, the Grand Hyatt Atlanta Buckhead is elegant but not stuffy, with some of the largest guest rooms in all of Atlanta. The amenities are steeped in relaxation, including a large outdoor pool deck and waterfall, Japanese Zen Garden and 24-hour StayFit. The Onyx Bar is one of the most popular watering holes for both hotel guests and locals, and Cassis restaurant specializes in regional southern favorites. Those traveling for business will appreciate the 35,000-square-feet of flexible meeting space, business center and complimentary Wi-Fi.
Tip Pups 50 pounds are less are welcomed to the Grand Hyatt Atlanta Buckhead with hypoallergenic beds, pet bowls, welcome treats and an in-room dining doggie menu. Let the hotel know at least three days in advance if you plan to bring Fido.
