The five things we love most about The Mansion on Peachtree speak to the cultivated sense of place — part art deco grandeur, part contemporary European-style maison.

1. The sunlight. Natural light spills through The Mansion on Peachtree due to its large open-format windows. The sunlight livens up the soft beiges and plays off the Italian black and white marble floors, creating a peaceful at-home feel.
2. The décor: The sleek contemporary Macassar ebony furnishings in guestrooms are still approachable enough for you to crash on or kick your feet up on—and you better, because you may not want to leave your room after you discover your hidden TV. Hint: The framed piece of art on your bed-facing wall retracts (remote on bed stand) to reveal a 37-inch LCD TV. Turn it on for your personalized welcome message.
3. Love of seasons. The Mansion on Peachtree minds the seasons. At their peak, peaches fill bowls at the front desk of the hotel, accentuated by a peach-scented candle burning throughout the lobby. In the spring, dogwood and magnolia blossoms adorn the foyer, the first whiff upon your entrance into the deconstructed art deco awning entrance. No matter the season, you can count on expertly tended orchids year round. During the holidays, The Mansion on Peachtree transforms into a sparkly, garlanded home, complete with Christmas cookies at night with turndown.
4. The skincare line: The 29 Collection is the luxury grape seed, antioxidant-rich product line that stocks all the bathrooms in the hotel, regardless of whether you’re staying in a suite or regular guestroom. Inspired by Highway 29 that runs through Napa Valley, Lydia Mondavi, a fifth-generation Atlanta native created a line of skin care that centers on the healing powers of grape seed extract—clinically shown to be 20 times more efficient than Vitamin C and 50 times more efficient than Vitamin E in ridding the skin of free radicals. Without leaving your room, you get a taste of the hotel spa’s rejuvenating atmosphere.
5. The garden. The English Garden is a sublime space to steal away during your stay. The courtyard-style garden features a stone path, greenery-covered arches, simple benches, tables and chairs, the chef’s herb garden, a peaceful pond and stunning Hydrangea paniculata flowers pruned into the shape of trees.
