History
Buckhead's ascent to Atlanta's commercial and residential aristocracy followed a trajectory shaped by the decisions of the city's most powerful twentieth-century figures. In the 1920s, Robert W. Woodruff — who would spend the next half-century expanding Coca-Cola from an Atlanta-based regional soft drink into the most globally recognized brand in history — and his peers began moving their estates north of the city to the forested ridgelines above Peachtree Road. Where the moneyed classes went, the banks, law firms, and commercial corridors eventually followed, and by the postwar decades Buckhead had accumulated the financial, legal, and retail infrastructure that has made it the commercial heart of a metropolitan area of seven million people.
West Paces Ferry Road, where The St. Regis Atlanta opened in 2009, is among the most address-significant streets in Buckhead — a corridor of institutional landscaping and discreet signage where the Georgia Governor's Mansion, foreign consulates, and the headquarters of the Atlanta History Center establish the neighborhood's tone. The hotel's position on this street is not incidental: it places the St. Regis in the social and institutional geography that defines Buckhead's particular kind of power, distinct from the newer commercial towers of Midtown or the historic drama of Sweet Auburn.
From its opening, the hotel set out to make the St. Regis traditions — the butler program, the Astor Bloody Mary, the champagne sabrage — feel native to a Southern setting that had its own ceremonial vocabulary. The nightly sabrage, performed with the formality the ritual demands, has become one of Atlanta's more distinctive hotel experiences, a moment of Gilded Age theatricality inserted into the cadence of a modern luxury hotel's evening.
In 2026, the St. Regis Atlanta and its restaurant Atlas simultaneously earned Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star designation — Atlanta's first ever double Five-Star honor, representing both the hotel and the restaurant achieving that standard in the same calendar year. Atlas also became the first Forbes Five-Star restaurant in the state of Georgia, a distinction that the restaurant, with its curated art collection and its position as the city's most scrutinized fine dining address, had been building toward for years.
The achievement capped a seventeen-year arc during which the hotel had earned AAA Five Diamond designation beginning in 2010 and had consolidated its position as the standard against which luxury hospitality in the Southeast is measured. The forty-thousand-square-foot pool area, the full-service spa, the billiards room, and the eight event spaces give the property the physical infrastructure to serve Atlanta's most significant social and corporate occasions — and the Forbes recognition gives it the credentials to claim, with justification, that it serves them better than anywhere else in the state.
The setting
The St. Regis Atlanta stands at 88 West Paces Ferry Road NW, at the prestigious intersection of Peachtree Road and West Paces Ferry Road — home to the Georgia Governor's Mansion. Designed in a Beaux Arts idiom inspired by The St. Regis New York, the hotel opened in 2009 as the first St. Regis in the Southeast. The Atlanta History Center is six minutes on foot, while the Buckhead Village District's Hermès, Jimmy Choo, and chef-driven dining await a short walk away. The surrounding West Paces Ferry corridor, where Coca-Cola's Robert Woodruff and Atlanta's old-money elite built their estates in the 1920s, lends a quieter residential grandeur that sets this location apart from Buckhead's busier retail corridor to the north. 5-minute walk to Buckhead Theatre.
