Alexus and Malcolm with the front desk staff were incredible!
Not a big fan of valet-only parking. But the property was very nice and clean. The amenities were up to date. I was impressed with the HVAC system being an actual heat pump in the ceiling instead of the cheap, stinky wall units most hotels have. The bed wasn’t as firm as we’d like but better than most. The walk-in shower was really nice other than water getting in the floor. My fiancé and I are very picky about hotels and their appearance for a number of reasons, and we were impressed. The valets and staff were also top notch. Thank you for making our stay very comfortable and enjoyable!
I previously stayed at this hotel for a business trip in December for over a week and had an OK experience. I elected to rebook the hotel as it is conveniently located for work.
While in my Uber after landing around 10:45pm I received a phone call that they were having an “issue” and needed to book me elsewhere— they would “text me an address shortly” I was already on my way to the hotel and to receive this message at that time of night is entirely unreasonable and unacceptable.
I received a text that I was rebooked at a Marriot. This location was no longer convenient for me walking to work. Additionally, upon arrival, this was not a Marriot hotel nor was it the same quality as the Sylvan. The front desk also let me know that this was due to an overbooking. Again, unreasonable and unacceptable to not give me an option on where I would stay or at minimum provide an upgrade.
When I responded to the message they agreed that this hotel was not a comparable hotel and also that this was due to overbooking (thanks for lying to begin with). I also requested to have a call from a more senior hotel manager and have yet to receive that. Horrific customer service and experience after a day of travel. I can’t in good faith recommended anyone book this hotel.

The Kimpton Sylvan is a great hotel in a great place!
The roof top bar is a must and there are many great spots within walking distance. We'll definitely be back!

Check-in valet parking was awful - front desk & valets seemed to be fighting & they had lost tickets to be able to valet our car. Extortionate pricing at $100 for 2 nights parking on top of a $350 / night room. No water in the room very odd & charged $7 for a small bottle. Nice location, but won’t be back.
My friend and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Sylvan property. It was quiet, clean and comfortable. The front desk staff was amazing. Very friendly and accommodating. Elliot took very good care of us at check in as well as Princess. Also, the valet staff was the best I’ve ever experienced in Atlanta. I would definitely recommend this hotel and will surely stay again!
I have stayed at this hotel now 4×3 to 4 times I got the same room which I think is one of the smaller rooms that they have. Still very well appointed just small the other visit I got a larger king room. It was a bit more comfortable. But the staff is great. They’re helpful their friendly. It’s right in the middle of everything. Great hotel great environment. The only drawback is the rooftop bar. Being directly across the street from one of the best rooftop bars in Atlanta this rooftop bar is lacking in space and ambience and in the level of service and the level of the drinks.
