Stayed in new wing. Underwhelming rooms and hallways - harsh lighting, budget floor coverings, no art etc. Electrical malfunctioned in middle of night resulting in emergency lights turning on. Had to relocate to another room half way thru night. No compensation, not even a complementary bottle of wine. Area isn't great either, but the hotel can't be responsible for that.

The hotel is located outside of the ZTL zone but just around the border so one might accidentally enter the ZTL zone, like us, when driving to the hotel. Best is to set route to avoid ZTL zone on Waze and don’t get lost. The hotel staff is super friendly and helpful. The car park is located literally next to the hotel and is gated and exclusively for hotel guest so a plus. Excellent breakfast buffet spread. The hotel has excellent dining options including a Michelin starred restaurant. The only thing we didn’t like was the uncarpeted floor in the room and relatively small shower stall. The hotel is in the city center so very convenient to walk around for sight seeing and shopping.
