About Us

Here in the Empire City of the South, Kimpton Sylvan Hotel stands poised between skyscrapers and tree-canopied estates.

Originally constructed in 1952, Kimpton Sylvan is newly reimagined as a boutique hotel perfect for business and leisure travelers alike.

Its design pays homage to the building's mid-century roots while looking forward with bold, contemporary art and accents.

Of course, design is only the beginning.

We've brought a taste of the Buckhead experience right inside our walls.

Join us at our restaurant, an old-school supper club serving modern takes on continental American classics.

Step up to an elevated bar for a signature Old Fashioned.

Wander out to our whimsical garden bar for a glass of wine under thick foliage of mature trees.

In fact, the arboreal abundance in our back yard inspired the name "Sylvan"-derived from the Latin word "silva," meaning forest.

Upstairs, our rooftop bar is a starlit wind-down before retiring to your guestroom.

We can't wait to welcome you to timeless hospitality, Kimpton Sylvan style.
