Luxury hotel to remodel its ballroom and guest room suites.
Four Seasons Hotel Atlanta will unveil a new look in its Grand Ballroom and guest room suites this August.
The luxury Midtown hotel, at 75 14th Street, submitted two building permit applications to City of Atlanta Tuesday for the renovations.
“These updates will set the bar for elegance and comfort in Atlanta while dazzling guests with the five star experience that sets the hotel apart from others,” a Four Seasons spokeswoman said in an email to What Now Atlanta Wednesday.
“The Ballroom, composed in stunning palette of pale gold and rich plum, will be the ‘must have’ event space for hosts looking to ‘WOW’ their guests.”
The guest room suites will undergo a floor-to-ceiling face lift, she said. The renovations will begin in August for a duration of six to ten weeks.
To renovate the ballroom, an estimated $400,000 will be spent, according to one of the two building permit applications filed. An additional $164,000 will be spent to alter the hotel’s guestrooms.
Forchielli Glynn, a Beverly Hills-based designer, is conceptualizing the remodel.

Yeah. If the guests are traveling through time from 1985. Gold and Plum? Yuk.
If only they would renovate the lobby as well.
Given that the social perspectives of most of this city are aligned with a 1985 (or earlier) farm town, that sounds about right…”Look at all dis fancy gold and purple cullah…this place sur is fancy! I’m gonna get me some lobster and fee-lay mignin. Yehhaw.”
You people kill me. You haven’t even seen a rendering yet.
You don’t need a rendering to know Gold and Plum are dated.
I’ll withhold judgement until I see a rendering. It’s not like they said teal and mauve….
Anyway, is it just me or does half a million sound a little cheap for a large scale renovation like this at a Four Seasons?
JonC, I’m not sure, but it’s a heck of a lot more compared to other local hotels. Consider the $140 million at the Marriott Marquis, $65 million at the Hilton Atlanta and $23 million to replace 6,350 windows at the Westin Peachtree Plaza.
Urbanist, if you hate our city so much, then go frigging home!!. You are one of the most narcassistic individuals I have ever heard spew out thier anit-Atlanta B.S.!!!
Leave Urbanist alone! He gets upset when we talk about things other than the mall. He has mentioned several times how much he loves spending time in the mall.
Looks like that firm does good work. In Atlanta, though, you have to cater to a unique populace.
It’s like the guys who opened an Atlanta steakhouse; in Atlanta who cares about the quality of steak? It’s the cognac selection and valet for your SL that matter.
Chris – I think you’re reading the post wrong. It says $500,000, not $500 million.
Ohhhhhh, well that changes everything
@ Atlanta Native – I have…but it’s still amusing to jab at the overwhelming levels of incompetence in this city from time to time. Plus, as someone who grew up here, I remain mildly interested in the constant degredation of the city (I’m eventually going to have to rescue my parents from this cesspool). It’s attitude’s like your “If you don’t like it just leave” quip, that drive people away who genuinely want to help. There are too many status quo loving goofs like yourself that turn a cold shoulder to people that want to make real changes in Atlanta, and those people wind up taking their ideas and energy elsewhere. Then what are you left with? A backwards city with very few redeeming qualities, and even less of a competitive advantage. What does that mean for the city’s future? That it’ll be what it’s always been – a behind the times, dilapidating shell of missed opportunity. Enjoy!
You guys should look up the definition of a troll on Urban Dictionary and then ask yourselves why you keep feeding this one.
I am sorry but that only adds up to $672 per room. They could not even replace the TV’s with kind of cash. There is no way they are only spending $500,000 dollars. You could not even pay someone $672 to clean each room from floor to ceiling.
