I lived in Atlanta in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Downtown can be expensive and not that safe, Buckhead a little trendy and therefore pricey, so the other business satellite areas on the "outer ring" offer better lodging values.

I found the Atlanta Hilton Northeast to offer such a good value even though I find the whole Norcross and nearby Gwinnett County business areas to be unbelievably boring. You will need a rental car, hope it's not rush hour, and then you can bolt to in-town things to do. My weekend price was in the $70s and in June, so you can't argue with that.

The room was standard Hilton in its clean and tasteful appointments. The bed was comfortable but not like I've seen at Doubletree or Westins. The parking was available in abundance in manicured landscaped pods around the hotel tower. There was a nice indoor pool that I used. The staff was competent, nice and friendly, reflecting Atlanta's demographic shift from a more provincial regional area to a world-class city. This implies that the staff mirrors this diversity.

I can make no comments about food as I did NOT take any meals there.

If you either have to stay in Atlanta's "outer ring" business suburbs or happen upon an under $ 100 a night price for this hotel and have a rental car, by all means, go for it.

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at the hotel. The facilities were attractive, modern and comfortable. Your staff was nice and very helpful. The suite that we stayed in was inviting, roomy and comfortable. We enjoyed spending time at the hotel with good friends. While hosting a small get together, we indulged in your coffee. The coffee was simply amazing. We asked the cleaning lady for a few extra coffee packages and enjoyed the coffee a few times over the course of the two days.

I have been a loyal Marriott customer for the past five years for business and travel with over 32,000 points. Since this experience I immediately opened a Hilton rewards account and will begin testing out the group in the various locations. Most importantly, I will make sure that I recommend and visit this location whenever I am in Atlanta. I did the same online with tripadvisor by placing the comments above online so the general population gets my thoughts and five star rating.

I guess when you call a hotel and ask the operator how she is and she replies "amazing" you can either deduce she is a) on drugs b) prone to exagerration c) amazing. Well all I can say is that the levels of friendliness and service I experienced during two business trips to this hotel have been amazing.
This included letting me back into the hotel, after I'd checked out, so that i could change into casual clothes for my flight home, and helping me get a lot of faxes sent back to Europe. Not to mention laying on a free cab service for my local business meetings.
Rooms are large clean, spacious and quiet with good air-con. I only had breakfast in the restaurant but it looked good. Room service was delivered quickly and the food was good.
Overall for business trips in this part of Atlanta this is an excellent reasonably priced hotel.

My mom,dad, and I stayed at Hilton Norcross from July 4th-July 9 and we had conjoining rooms on the 5th floor. My mom and I drove down from Baltimore while my Dad flew in. Since my mom and I drove the long 10 hours to the Hilton we were ready to get in our room,get room service and go to sleep. DIDN'T HAPPEN. Check in was horrible. My mom had called hilton headquarters two months ago to get everything situated and the man she spoke with promised her it was. We checked in and the moody (turned out she was one of the managers) lady said that our reservations had been canceled because we were supposed to come in yesturday! UM NO! The lady at the front desk was horrible one because she made it seem like my mom was lieng,two she had a rude tone with my mom, and three she didn't try to fix it right away! All we wanted to do was get situated in our romm and go to sleep and from being in the car for so long I was getting extremely fustrated so I went out to the car and waited. My mom came out 20 minutes later and said they FOUND us conjoining rooms. There could have been a chance where they couldn't of. Still not having it with how the manager acted I decided I wanted to let her know how poorly her performance was. So I basically told her about herself and she was very apologetic and got better real quick! After the complications things did get a lot better. We were there for a wedding but there was a bridge torunament going on. Needless to say, it was crowded but quiet. The swimming pool and fitness center were great! The food at the Hilton is awesome and you would not automatically think that. I was pleasantly surprised. Room Service and the staff at Basil's Kitchen are GREAT. So friendly and nice and very accomadating. Even the cleaning woman were friendly as well(they do not know English very well so that can be fustrating). The room itself was clean not spotless or immaculate but just clean. The bathroom I made sure was very clean and it was. It met my standards. Overall for a 3 1/2 star hotel It was a lovely stay. When we visit again, most likely we will stay there.


note about the area- getting around was very confusing to us because the signs aren't that good. They have little writing, and there is very little lighting at night. Before leaving the hilton make sure you KNOW the area and if you don't make sure you have GREAT directions.
