For the people who are going. Where’s the best place to stay around the stadium. Thanks

If you want close, the Ga Tech Hotel and Conference Center is literally right across the street from the stadium. Like $300 a night, but books up fast on game days. It’s right in the middle of all the tailgating.
stayed there for a wedding and it is actually pretty nice of a hotel.

I live in town. Do not stay downtown. Also no reason to stay in Buckhead at this point. Midtown is where things are these days.

Any of these are a 15 minute walk or less - Renaissance, Georgian Terrace, or Indigo. If you are ok with maybe another 5-10 minutes, the epicurean is brand new and people love it.

If you give your son’s ages range, I can give you some restaurant and activity recommendations too.
 
I’m taking my son and I’d like to be as close to th stadium as possible
Find something in midtown around the GT hotel. It's a nice area, right by all the tailgating across 5th street bridge and down to the stadium. The whole east midtown area is nice and potentially walkable to the stadium, depending on how close to Tech square you are.

Atlantic Station is just north of campus and a close uber drive down, but it gives you plenty of amenities nearby when you're not at the game or on the GT campus.
 
Like others have said, if you’re wanting to walk you’ll want to be in Midtown.

If you’re okay with a quick Uber I’d personally recommend something around Ponce City Market over Atlantic Station. AS has your typical outdoor mall stuff but the place feels totally manufactured, it’s kinda weird. But like someone else said, age of the kid would be helpful.

Westside Provisions has the best upscale food in the city but it’s not cheap, would also be a short Uber ride.

For the visual types, I am attaching a map below. There is a tunnel underneath I-75/85 which I have market. Your tickets are likely to be in the southeast corner of the stadium. I have also market the spot east of the interstate where the CanesUnited tailgate was held two years ago, and many of us walked from that location.

The area east of the interstate is Midtown. There are plenty of hotels AND parking garages on that side.

Depending on the time of the game, I am probably going to plan something to be held at Ladybird Mess Hall and Provisions. Great spot.

For those who are staying through Sunday, I may also set up a brunch at Canoe.

Check out those two spots and let me know if you're interested. I'm not knocking Ponce City Market or any other spot, but those places aren't quite as unique.

Wow. I have stayed at Hilton Downtown last two times. I thought was decent area and felt safe walking around.
