This hotel is only a few minutes to ATL and is very clean and comfortable. The restaurant is very much a cut above with reasonable prices. The parking lot has good lighting and for a fee one can leave their car and take the (no cost) hotel van to the airport .

The service here was horrible, from the shuttle driver to front desk manager this hotel needs a different group of front faces that actually smile. The shuttle driver did not help lift our luggage and then actually ASKED for a tip. She was awful. I had arrived before 3pm this past Friday and the front desk manager said there were 5 people ahead of us before we could check in. We waited for 10 minutes and asked a different agent and were given a room immediately. Within those 10 minutes no-one checked in. My wife arrived after me, and I had notified the front desk manager to add her to the reservation and when she checks in to just give her a key, because I was going to sleep, 2 hrs later... Jevon calls me to inform me i had to come down, because the front desk manager did not update our reservation. Lack of Communication, and willingness to go above and beyond by the Front desk manager.
At check out my wife forgot her phone in the room, we had already left and had asked Jevon to overnight the phone due to the fact my wife was returning to Atlanta on Monday. Saturday comes and the GM at a different hotel informs me that we had no packages, we trace to package and its coming Monday at 11am, how does this help me when my wife returns to Atlanta Monday at 10am? The front desk manager has absolutely no people skills, and Jevon and just a warm body hovering the front desk. When we tried to get in contact with the the GM, she has still not returned our calls and its wednesday. This property needs stronger managers and maybe a stronger management company.
We will not be returning to this property.

You will pay too much and get too little at this hotel. It's a standard H.I. Basic rooms. Ok beds. Small TV's. Slow internet. Unreliable shuttle service. And, the staff has plenty of attitude. I guess that happens when they get tired of hearing complaints that management does nothing to correct.
This location used to be in the "Select" brand of Holiday Inns. It is now just a regular Holiday Inn.
If you want to stay near ATL airport, you can do a lot better for the same price.

I stayed at the Holiday Inn Select ATL Airport South during the July 4th weekend. Surprisingly eventhough the hotel was full there was no loud noises, or craziness going on the entire weekend. Check in was smooth. The people at the front desk were nice and very professional. I went downstairs after 10pm to get some change and they had no problem taking care of that for me. The room was nice and clean. We could see the airplanes coming in for landings (my 3 year old loved it), but we could not hear them from our room. The beds were probably some of the most comfortable I have slept in; very plush and soft. It was hard to get out of bed because they were so comfy. The pool is small, but we didn't plan on using it anyway. We didn't eat in the restaurant either. The prices were a little too steep, but I was told that the food was good. There were plenty of carts to help you carry things upstairs to your room and check out was a breeze. The lobby was nice and spacious. I enjoyed my stay and would recommend this hotel to others and I look forward our next stay at this hotel. FYI - If you don't want to spend too much at the restaurant in the hotel, right around the corner there is a Ruby Tuesday's that is very good.
