Planning the perfect girls’ weekend staycation? Look no further than the Grand Hyatt in Buckhead. This luxury hotel offers everything you need for an unforgettable getaway with your besties—no passport required! Here’s why the Grand Hyatt Buckhead is the ideal destination for your next girls’ weekend.
1. Complimentary Shuttle Service for all your shopping and dining (no need to stress about parking)
If you are like me, you have parking anxiety. I often stress about the ability to find parking or having to parallel park. So this is a huge benefit of staying at this Buckhead hotel. Their complimentary shuttle service operates within a 2-mile radius of the hotel. Whether you’re craving a shopping spree at Lenox Square or Phipps Plaza, looking to indulge in some fine dining at a nearby restaurant, or want to check out a trendy bar, the shuttle service makes it incredibly easy to explore the best of Buckhead without the hassle of driving or having to pay for a pricey Ube or parking.
We walked out to the valet stand and asked them to call the shuttle driver. He was there in about 6 or 7 minutes to take us to our restaurant. And when he gave us his card with his number and picked us up again within about 5 or 6 minutes from when we called him. And one thing that is super neat about this ride? It is a full size SUV – not a bus. Even for the short two miles we were riding, it felt super bougy! No need to worry about parking or navigating the busy streets—just hop on the shuttle and enjoy the ride!
2. Spacious, Modern Rooms Perfect for Pampering
The Grand Hyatt’s rooms are designed with luxury and comfort in mind, making them the perfect retreat for a weekend of pampering and relaxation. The large, modern rooms offer plenty of space for all your weekend lounging. Our suite had a living area with plenty of seating if we wanted to lounge in our bathrobes. With plush bedding, sleek furnishings, and floor-to-ceiling windows that offer stunning views of the city, we definitely felt ultra spoiled.
Each room is thoughtfully designed with amenities that cater to a girl’s weekend. There was even a huge space dedicated to our morning coffee complete with Nespresso pods to get our day started right!
3. Pool Time with Snacks Delivered to Your Lounger
No girls’ weekend is complete without some quality pool time, and the Grand Hyatt Buckhead delivers. The hotel’s outdoor pool is a serene oasis, perfect for soaking up the sun, sipping on cocktails, and catching up with your friends. Just make sure to get there early enough to snag an umbrella if you prefer the shade. I really loved that the deepest part of the pool is 5 feet and contrary to other pools it is in the middle. So everyone doesn’t cram into the more shallow part as a short girl like me can stand at either end.
What makes pool time at the Grand Hyatt in Buckheadeven better? The ability to have snacks delivered right to your seat! They have a limited menu you can choose from including Poke bowls and pizzas. There are also cocktails. I thoroughly loved the Tuna Poke bowl and Paloma by the pool.
4. A Tranquil Zen Garden for a Peaceful Escape
After a night of fun, sometimes you just need a little peace and quiet to recharge. The Grand Hyatt’s Zen garden is the perfect place to find your inner calm. This beautifully landscaped garden features winding paths, tranquil water features, and cozy seating areas where you can relax and reflect.
Whether you’re into morning yoga, meditation, or simply want to enjoy a quiet cup of coffee surrounded by nature, the Zen garden provides a peaceful retreat right in the heart of Buckhead. It’s the perfect spot to reconnect with yourself and your friends in a serene environment.
Also worth noting, though it may not technically be part of the zen garden, the gorgeous waterfall feature that you can see while having breakfast at Cassis is equally peaceful and if it weren’t for the audience, I’d reocmmend it for a morning meditation!
5. Closet Lighting That Makes Getting Ready a Breeze
One of the more thoughtful touches in the Grand Hyatt’s rooms is the well-lit closets. Let’s face it—getting ready for a night out is half the fun of a girls’ weekend, and good lighting is essential. The closets at the Grand Hyatt come equipped with interior lights, so you can easily see all your clothes and accessories, making outfit coordination a breeze.
No more struggling to find that perfect dress or pair of shoes in a dimly lit closet. With ample lighting, getting ready becomes an enjoyable part of your weekend routine, whether you’re planning a night out on the town or a stylish dinner at the hotel’s restaurant.
6. Proximity to Buckhead’s Best Shopping and Dining
