ATLANTA — Legacy Ventures has completed the $16 million renovation of The American Hotel, a 315-room hotel operating as a DoubleTree Hilton in downtown Atlanta. Originally constructed in 1962, the hotel has hosted public figures including Elvis Presley, Carol Channing, Jimmy Carter, James Brown, Nelson Rockefeller and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. The renovation embraces mid-century modern furnishings and design and includes 60s car-themed headboards and an Airstream trailer serving as the poolside bar. The hotel’s renovated meeting and banquet space can accommodate up to 500 guests, and the updated fitness facilities include virtual fitness classes. The American Hotel is also home to The Cloakroom Kitchen & Bar, which pays tribute to the Cold War. In addition, the hotel is situated within walking distance to the Tabernacle concert hall, Centennial Olympic Park and the new Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
