Hotel Clermont, Atlanta
More photosExpert reviews
“The six-story, century-old brick building is topped with a sixty-five-foot radio tower bearing the Clermont name—an original relic that came down years ago but was proudly resurrected at the hotel’s splashy grand opening in 2018. Inside the groovy, ’70s-inspired lobby with low-slung velvet couches and leafy house plants.”
“With preserved stairwells and unusable original doors, Atlanta’s hottest boutique hotel has kept a wink and a nod to this historic 1924 Poncey-Highland building, originally the Bonaventure Arms Apartments.”
“There’s no better stay within walking distance of Ponce City Market and the BeltLine, and for cool factor combined with the conveniences of a modern hotel with vintage touches, there may be no better stay in Atlanta. Lush foliage and wicker and rattan seating welcome you in the lobby, as does an ice-cold PBR in honor of legendary stripper Blondie.”

All you need to know
In the not-so-distant past, the Clermont Hotel in Atlanta was renowned for two elements: the iconic sign on its rooftop radio mast, and the infamous Clermont Lounge nestled in its basement.
While these features remain, what lies sandwiched between them — a historic 1920s red-brick structure that has experienced both highs and lows — has undergone an extensive refurbishment.
The result is a reinvented 94-room boutique hotel, featuring a trendy eatery helmed by a lauded local chef and a few sought-after nightlife venues (above and beyond those found in the basement).
The revamp process was exhaustive, transforming a residential hotel into a gleaming modern accommodation — one that nevertheless retains a significant dose of 20s charm.
The aesthetic is inspired by the past but far from antiquated; it’s diverse, blending Art Deco and mid-century modern designs with contemporary art and state-of-the-art technology.
Poncey-Highland, the locale in question, has been on a surge recently, boasting an impressive array of nocturnal activities. However, the Clermont isn’t left behind in this aspect; with Tiny Lou’s, a fusion of French and Southern brasserie, offering dinner and weekend brunches.
The lobby bar provides an assortment of innovative drinks and after-dark snacks. Café Clermont offers Revelator coffee, while the Roof Top is precisely as its name suggests: an elevated bar with panoramic views and a lively mix of residents and visitors.

The historic hotel was decorated beautifully and we loved the amenities.
I opted for a dorm style quad room two sets of bunk beds. While I loved the nostalgia of it, I didn't realize these rooms were in basement of building, so it was very dismal.

Overall the experience of the hotel and its amenities was awesome
For breakfast we had muffins at the shop on the first floor. The gentleman that worked the shop was very friendly and informative. The muffins were very good. The rooftop experience was fabulous. We loved the view, the drinks and the food from the taco truck (On the roof!). The truffle fries at the bar and Tiny Lou's were amazing! The room didn't have a refrigerator but they brought one up to us at no charge.

Whimsical and wonderful
The Claremont was a last minute recommendation from a friend. We had to choose this or another. Couldn’t be happier that we chose the Claremont. There is a special vibe the second you arrive. The staff are very nice- especially the head of Valet. Loved him!
There’s really nothing to complain about. It’s got charm, so there a few rough edges to the interior, but nothing worth complaining about.

We’ll be back, for sure.
Loved the location, the staff, the lounge and bar.
No A/C or fridge in our bunk room!

Lovely accomodations and extremely friendly staff.
My stay was lovely. All of the staff were so friendly and accomodating which was especially appreciated due to the fact that I am disabled.
I would like to have seen more vegetarian options at the hotel restaurant.

I would stay again.
The hotel is lovely. Fun to walk around and take in. The room was comfortable and the staff was friendly.
The hotel bar was a bit underwhelming. The atmosphere is great but the service was slow and I've had better drinks.

we had a great stay and would recommend to anyone.
it was unique and the staff were friendly. loved the valet too.
I’d prefer two mirrors in the room. in case two women need to get ready at same time.

Enjoyed the rooftop, Tiny Lou’s and the Clermont lounge. Excellent time!
The room was fabulous! Each bunk bed was comfortable and beautifully made with excellent attention to detail. I went for my 33rd birthday celebration and was welcomed to my room with a bottle of champagne and two glasses which were a very sweet and thoughtful touch! Thank you Clermont Hotel I had a fantastic time!

Very good
Beautiful property. Staff at reception were very helpful and friendly.
The rooms are really nice - great styling and good amenities.
Location is fantastic.
Nice rooftop bar.
Valet Parking staff - some of them had some real attitude when you were pulling up to offload/load bags.
Elevator sometimes stank as though someone had thrown up.
Bar staff could make an effort to be more welcoming and friendly - little uptight ...

A beautiful stay - but the price is a bit much
The interior is gorgeous and most of the amenities were great. The showers were hot and had beautiful design as well.
The elevator got confused frequently because there was only one for rooftop access and one specifically for guests. If you're able, I'd highly suggest walking instead of using the elevator.
Paying $45 a DAY for parking is absurd. The rooms were already pretty pricey (which I understand for the area.. gentrification and whatnot), but $45 a day for parking (and the attendant wasn't really present at night) doesn't even make sense.
Lastly there was no fridge in the room which I didn't realize.. that was a bit inconvenient.

Fun place!
The rooms, vibe, and bars are great.
I have realized that I have to book this hotel through third parties because that is the only way to lock in a rate. $45 is expensive for parking, even in Atlanta.

New York Times“The Glenn Hotel is in a renovated 1920s building downtown that has gossamer curtains. The rooftop bar and restaurant have a gimmick, apparently attractive to the rich and famous, where you can eat on a bed, but beware the snobby doormen and minimum spending requirements.”

Buckhead was born. Its 507 rooms start at a sizable 360 sq ft with residential-style mahogany flooring and skyline views.”
