I stayed Embassy and would vote that; did stay Hilton also and it is a about 1 mile or so, short cab but we walked it and only thing don't like after dark the panhandlers in the area very aggravating!

The Embassy Suites is an easy walk to the Georgia Dome. The facilty itself is very nice and the breakfast is by far the best complimentary hotel breakfast I've ever had.

Embassy Suites is the place to stay. Very easy walk to the game and it is a very nice hotel. The parade goes very near this hotel as well.

Many LSU fans stay at the Omni. Just as nice and is even closer to the Dome.

Embassy Suite or the Hilton Garden is right next door.

HG has a great hotel bar inside. Sports bar is right across the street.

Close walk.

The team hotel is not that far from the the stadium. I've stayed right across the street and walked to the GA Dome before.

Embassy very nice and closer.

Hilton would be longer walk but usually have some other fans with you for safety sake. I've stayed there and the marriott marquis and both can be a haul.

I'm surprised you can get in the embassy this late unless you've had these reservations for some time.

Embassy is great. Hilton will have more purple and gold fans.

Marriott is directly across street from Hilton.

Embassy Suites. I have stayed at that location several times and its worth considering how close its to the GA dome. Rooms are nice

Loved the Hilton downtown. Usually stay there but decided to stay out in Buckhead this trip. You can take the sky-walks to the Marta Station if it's nasty weather or really cold. We have actually walked to the Dome from there too. If it's not freezing or rainy, it's not that bad. The team will be there, so if you're the stalker type, you get to see them hanging out in the lobby and on the elevators, etc. My nephew was in heaven, got lots of autographs and photos with players.

Embassy is nice and better location. If you stay at the Hilton make sure you go party at the bar at the Ritz a few blocks down.

I stayed in the Hilton Atlanta last time LSU played Miami. Had a great time at the chalk talk luncheon which was down stairs. Once the game was over we partied with players in the bar in the lobby.

Ok. Just booked at the embassy. Location and free happy hour beats out team hotel. I'm not the stalker type. I'm sure the hilton is great as well
