ATLANTA – Le Méridien Atlanta Perimeter’s 12-month, $20 million renovation is complete. The first Le Méridien hotel to open in the Atlanta metropolitan area and one of nine new Le Méridien hotels slated to open within the year, celebrates its grand opening this September. Located in the bustling Perimeter Center business district, just minutes from downtown Atlanta, the hotel is owned by RockBridge Capital and managed by Wischermann Partners.

“Guests are invited to discover the Dunwoody community where Le Méridien Atlanta Perimeter is located,” General Manager Peter Dunn said. “We are equally exhilarated to be a resident of this cultural center and to offer dining, entertainment and employment opportunities to our Dunwoody neighbors.”

The renovated space appeals to locals who want to explore a new dining option or host a meeting or event, and to travellers seeking a memorable, personalized experience in Atlanta. Le Méridien Atlanta Perimeter boasts 275 spacious guest rooms and suites along with an outdoor pool, fitness center, spacious 12th floor club lounge, and 10,000 square feet of state-of-the-art meeting and event space. Guests can also enjoy a selection of illy Coffee, cocktails and fine wines at Longitude 84, the hotel’s sleek new lounge, and Portico, the hotel’s ground-floor restaurant featuring an eclectic menu of globally inspired cuisine and a spacious terrace ideal for private gatherings and special events.

“The inspiring design featured throughout the spacious guest rooms and public areas, the newly created club lounge and the addition of a new restaurant with an expansive patio complete the transformation of this property,” said Leigh Allan, food and beverage director of Le Méridien Atlanta Perimeter. “Chef Lee brings his passion for international flavours, an aspect the Dunwoody dining experience was lacking. Simultaneous senses are stimulated as patrons are invited to explore new dishes and tastes.”

Le Méridien Atlanta Perimeter features the Le Méridien Hub™ experience, which re-interprets the traditional lobby into a social gathering place for creative people to converse, debate, and exchange. Le Méridien Hub offers both guests and locals a creative atmosphere where contemporary, curated artwork sets the environment. The Hub further builds on the brand’s award-winning arrival experience and coffee culture with arrival elements: large-scale artwork in high impact areas to reset the mind and stimulate dialogue and curiosity; the sensory experience, illustrated through Le Méridien signature scent, sound and use of light, creating a unique and distinctive atmosphere; UNLOCK ART™ programme, featuring LM100 ™ artist designed key card collections that not only offer access to the guestroom but also to Le Méridien affiliated contemporary cultural centers in the city; and a 24-hour custom soundtrack.

Le Méridien Atlanta Perimeter is close to numerous Fortune 500 businesses and the shops and restaurants in the adjacent Perimeter Mall. The prestigious Buckhead shopping district, Atlanta Botanical Gardens, Zoo Atlanta and High Museum of Art are all nearby, and the hotel is located just five miles from DeKalb-Peachtree Airport (PDK) and 27 miles from Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL).
