Transportation & Lodging Information
Atlanta is a sprawling city full of surprises and contrasts.
If you have not visited the ATL before, our airport, Hartsfield-Jackson International, is the world's busiest! There are multiple terminals connected by a very efficient train. The airport is very large and spread out so you must allow enough time, once you get there, to deal with your luggage, make your way through security screening, get to your terminal on the passenger train, and then still reach your gate once at the terminal.
As you are looking at hotels in Atlanta, we recommend that you stay in the Buckhead area of town. The Atlanta International School is located in Buckhead, and there are a lot of lodging, dining, and shopping options there. The High Museum of Art is in our Midtown, which is a short train ride or car drive away from Buckhead.
Buckhead is also on the Red MARTA line, as is the High Museum of Art (very short train ride). MARTA is our public transport system, and you can get on the red MARTA train line inside the Atlanta Airport and ride it all the way to Buckhead for a few dollars. You will not need to rent a car (unless you specifically want to) if you stay in a Buckhead hotel.
