Hilton has announced the highly anticipated opening of the 976-room Signia by Hilton Atlanta, marking the first new-build Georgia hotel for the Signia by Hilton brand and Atlanta’s largest ground-up hotel development project in 40 years. Inclusive of the property’s debut, Atlanta represents Hilton’s largest market globally by the number of hotels, with a portfolio of 136 hotels across 13 brands welcoming travellers to the destination. In Atlanta, Hilton also has a pipeline of more than 40 hotels in various stages of design and construction.
Poised to become a signature landmark and economic catalyst on the city’s west side, Signia by Hilton Atlanta is owned by Georgia World Congress Center Authority (GWCCA) and forms part of the Authority’s Championship Campus, North America’s largest combined convention, sports, and entertainment destination, which also includes Georgia World Congress Center, Mercedes-Benz Stadium and Centennial Olympic Park. Built on the repurposed foundation of the Georgia Dome, the hotel features eight food and beverage experiences; a spa, beauty bar, rooftop pool and fitness centre; more than 100,000 square feet of flexible meeting space, including the largest hotel ballroom in Georgia; a grand outdoor event deck and lawn; and Club Signia.
“Signia by Hilton offers the world’s best meetings and events, a vibrant atmosphere, exceptional amenities and personalized service catered to the needs of today’s global traveller,” said Chris Nassetta, president and CEO of Hilton.
“We are excited to introduce this brand to our extensive portfolio in Atlanta, a dynamic destination that continues to play an important role in Hilton’s growth, and are proud of the positive impact this hotel will have on the community through local job creation partnerships and incremental convention and leisure business.”
"Signia by Hilton Atlanta complements our vision for a compact and connected campus featuring a package of facilities unrivalled in any city in the United States," said Frank Poe, executive director of Georgia World Congress Center Authority.
"More importantly, it is a cornerstone of a strategy centred on aligning GWCCA with the evolving needs of its customers while putting Atlanta on the shortlist for the most prestigious live events the industry has to offer.”
“The addition of Signia by Hilton to the GWCCA’s portfolio of venues further strengthens its status as one of the premier destinations in the world for conventions, sports events, and entertainment,” said Governor Brian Kemp.
“As Georgia prepares to welcome iconic events and continues experiencing record-breaking economic growth in the years ahead, this facility is well-positioned to remain a key economic driver for our state. Tourism and the hospitality industry remain some of the largest industries in Georgia, and today’s announcement is another reminder of the Peach State’s success in these key areas.”
Signia by Hilton Atlanta was developed by Boston-based Drew Company, with Gensler as the architect and interior designer, and a joint venture between Skanska and SG Contracting as the general contractor. As the tallest building on the west side of Atlanta, the 42-story, 1.25 million square foot property is enveloped in wall-to-wall glass, offering panoramic views of downtown Atlanta, an inspiring and curated art collection, and inviting spaces.
Upon entering Signia by Hilton Atlanta, guests can expect an impressive sense of arrival and personalized service from check-in to check-out. Travellers are welcomed into a modern, open-concept and naturally lit lobby, adorned with elevated fixtures and furniture that is stylish and comfortable, the perfect place for gathering and connecting.
All guest rooms at Signia by Hilton Atlanta offer spectacular floor-to-ceiling windows with panoramic views and reflect the warmth and refinement of Southern luxury, featuring a combination of earth-toned fabrics, rich wood and rattan textures, and brass finishes. The colours and materials are inspired by the building’s unique location in the city, paying homage to some of the most historically important and culturally significant neighbourhoods in Atlanta. Shades of amber, deep brown, soft beige and slate blue evoke a subtle sophistication, while black and metallic details bring an understated modern twist. Together, these design elements invite guests to celebrate the distinguished style of Southern hospitality through a timeless look that is both stylish and functional.
Signia by Hilton Atlanta joins the thoughtfully curated and growing Signia by Hilton portfolio of hotels, which currently include Signia by Hilton Orlando Bonnet Creek, Signia by Hilton San Jose and the upcoming debut of Signia by Hilton Indianapolis, slated to open in late 2026.
