this weekend, going to the game, please help
Which Ritz-Carlton? Downtown or Buckhead?
The best place to get answers on activities and restaurants would be to start off by looking through the Things to Do tab and reading older posts on this forum, then coming back here and asking more specific questions.
Re: the Ritz, if you chose that because you were looking for the most upscale hotel, something one would typically associate with that brand, you might want to reconsider. Both here are aging and there are nicer options. For downtown, look at the W, Twelve or the Ellis. For Buckhead, try the Intercontinental, W or Mansion at Peachtree.
You can either drive to the stadium, where there is ample parking all around, or take MARTA from downtown, midtown or Buckhead. It will take you to the Five Points station, where there is a shuttle running to Turner Field.
we take the MARTA from the Ritz downtown to Five Points and then we can catch a shuttle there that will take us directly to the entrance of the ballpark???
Yup. There will be lots of signs at the Five Points station and guards directing people to the buses. However, if you%26#39;re staying at the Ritz downtown just walk to the Five Points Marta station. There%26#39;s no need to get on the train. It%26#39;s just like 3 blocks.
I agree with J. Don%26#39;t stay at the Ritz for an upscale experience. It is within easy walking access to Five Points, though.
Down the hill from the Ritz is a decent Mexican restaurant called Mama Ninfa%26#39;s.
we just returned from a weekend trip at the Ritz and I%26#39;ll have to say it was top notch!! sooooo, just wanted to let you guys know, just in case you wanted to check it out again before guiding people away :) - we were treated unbelievably from the moment we walked through the door until we left - room was reallly nice and you could tell upgrade was a huge success - tons of nice little extra touches and treats (2 free drinks at atlanta grill) - turndown with roses on pillow one night ...... just really great luxury experience .... this is our 6th ritz we have stayed and it was as nice or nicer than others we have stayed at and customer service was a 10 for sure!!
There a quite a few great things to in Atlanta. Here%26#39;s a list of the top ten most popular things to do:

If you can only do one thing I would visit the Georgia Aquarium. It will only take 2-3 hours and it%26#39;s well worth the money. The World of Coca Cola is right across the street so you can work it in also without having to drive anywhere. If you looking for a great restaurant try Bacchanalia which is not too far from the downtown area and fairly easy to drive to.
Have fun!
