What you get
Barclay Hotel Atlanta Downtown lists the practical things first: 24 hour front desk, 24H security, free wifi, air conditioning, lifts, luggage storage and a safe. Rooms come with a desk, TV, telephone, iron and board, hairdryer, toiletries, towels and a choice of bath or shower. There is a fitness center, business center, laundry service, parking and a garage. A bar and a buffet are the only food and drink named. The list is thin on anything beyond the room and the desk, so do not expect a pool, a restaurant or a lounge.
For someone staying at Barclay Hotel Atlanta Downtown, this adds up to a functional base rather than a destination. The 2 star rating shows in the thin parts of the list, not in the essentials, which are all present. It suits you if you are arriving late, leaving early or working from a desk in Downtown. It does not suit you if you want to spend the day in the building, eat more than a buffet, or treat the trip as a holiday.

Where it puts you
You are staying Downtown, inside the loop, where the train at Five Points puts every line in the city within reach. That is the point of the location: you can move around Atlanta without a car, and the rest of the trip is built on that. The site's own line on the neighbourhood is blunt about the trade: the cheapest walk to a train in the city, with convention traffic setting the price, so a Tuesday in January is a different hotel than a Tuesday in October.
The BeltLine trail is also here, and the 0.8 mi to trail is the figure to keep in mind if you plan to walk or run it. This suits anyone whose trip runs on transit and convention schedules. It does not suit a holiday built around quiet streets and long, slow mornings.
Booking it
Book directly if you want the cancellation and credit terms shown below. Most rooms here can be cancelled free, and you book them through app.impt.io. Every confirmed booking removes one tonne of CO2, at no extra cost to you. Five percent of what you pay comes back as IMPT credit, out of the hotel commission rather than added to your bill.
Facts on this page come from the booking supplier's record: star class, address, photographs and facility list. Guest scores come from verified stays. We have not stayed here; the neighbourhood copy is our own.
