The Tess Review
BUCKHEAD COULD USE A LITTLE COLOR
Buckhead has enough hotels with marble floors, muted colors, and lobbies that take themselves way too seriously. Tess Atlanta decided to go in another direction.Sitting along Peachtree Road, Tess brings bold interiors, colorful artwork, and a little attitude to a neighborhood known for expensive shopping, upscale restaurants, and looking the part. It's boutique hospitality without the stiff atmosphere, giving guests something more interesting than another predictable business hotel.
The location keeps you close to Buckhead's restaurants, nightlife, and shopping, while the hotel offers a welcome change from the polished corporate feel found throughout the district.
NOT EVERY BUCKHEAD HOTEL NEEDS TO ACT LIKE OLD MONEY.

Upscale
Buckhead can be a little too impressed with itself, and Tess is a welcome break from all that buttoned-up luxury. It's colorful, stylish, and doesn't act like having a good time is beneath it.
SOMEBODY FINALLY TOLD BUCKHEAD TO LOOSEN UP.
For Black travelers who like nice things but don't need every hotel to feel like a country club, Tess brings some much-needed personality to Peachtree Road.
SHE'S CUTE. SHE'S DIFFERENT. WE LIKE HER.
