What you get
Kimpton Overland Hotel Atlanta Airport by IHG is a 4 star property on Porsche Drive in Hapeville, in the Greater Atlanta area. It is 4.5 km from College Park, which is the nearest of the 24 neighbourhoods this site covers. The facilities list is long and practical: 24 hour front desk, air conditioning, wifi, parking, lifts, luggage storage, non smoking rooms, laundry service, room service, housekeeping, a safe, a desk and a TV. There is a restaurant, a fitness center, an indoor pool and a salt water pool, and pets are allowed. The list is thin on the working side of a stay: no dedicated business center or meeting space beyond a banquet room, and no kitchen or self catering setup.
What that adds up to at Kimpton Overland Hotel Atlanta Airport by IHG is a hotel built around the airport rather than around the city. The shuttle, the 24 hour desk and the parking make it work for an early departure or a late arrival, and the pool, fitness center and restaurant make a stopover less grim than it could be. It is not a base for a holiday in Atlanta. The rail label Airport, Red/Gold tells you the train connection is at the airport, not on the doorstep, so you are relying on the shuttle to reach it. Stay here for one night around a flight, with a pet, or with a car. Do not stay here if you want to walk out to restaurants and bars or spend your days in the city.

Where it puts you
These hotels are not in College Park. They sit outside the twenty four neighbourhoods this site covers, in the wider metro, and College Park is only the nearest of them. Treat the label as a direction rather than an address: you are in the greater Atlanta area, and the places the loop is known for are somewhere you travel to rather than walk out into.
What you get for that is the airport line, the Red and Gold, and a bed that is off the loop rather than on it. The site's own summary puts it plainly: the cheapest bed in metro Atlanta and sixteen minutes by train to Five Points. Right for an early flight, wrong for a holiday. If your trip is built around the Beltline and the neighbourhoods, book nearer the middle and pay for it.

Booking it
Book this one directly through the site if your dates are fixed around a flight, because the free cancellation on most rooms is worth having when airlines move things. 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.
