Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group signed a long-term management contract to manage a new hotel and branded residences, to be developed in Atlanta. This project is currently scheduled to open in 2011. Mandarin Oriental, Atlanta and The Residences will form an integral part of a planned 53-story mixed-use development to be located at 1138 Peachtree on the emerging “Midtown Mile” in the heart of the Arts district. The project is designed to be among the tallest structures in Atlanta, featuring a soaring glass façade with panoramic views over the historic Piedmont Park and the surrounding metropolitan areas. The hotel plans to feature 198 guestrooms, including 35 suites. Guestrooms are being designed to be among the largest in the city, featuring entertainment and customer-centric technology systems, a hallmark of Mandarin Oriental hotels worldwide.
A Spa at Mandarin Oriental is also planned, with signature programs created exclusively by Mandarin Oriental. As with all Mandarin Oriental spas, the 22,000-square-foot space will include private treatment rooms, significant water and heat therapies, as well as a pampering beauty salon and a Mandarin barber. Fully-equipped fitness facilities will be complemented by Pilates and yoga studios, as well as a large outdoor swimming pool and deck, complete with spa cuisine available for poolside refreshment. Four creative dining and cocktail venues, elegant function space and gourmet catering will form part of the comprehensive facilities designed to make Mandarin Oriental, Atlanta a fitting venue for memorable social occasions and important meetings and conferences.
The project has been designed to feature 71 luxury living spaces on the building’s top floors which will be branded as The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Atlanta. For more information, visit http://www.mandarinoriental.com/.
