Candler Hotel Atlanta Added to Curio Collection


MCLEAN, VA—Hilton Worldwide has signed a franchise license agreement to bring Candler Hotel Atlanta to Curio - A Collection by Hilton, a global set of distinctive upper-upscale and luxury hotels.

The landmark Candler building is set to open as Candler Hotel Atlanta, Curio Collection by Hilton in late 2017 following extensive renovations. The property is owned by REM Associates, L.P. and will be managed by Highgate Hotels.

"Paying homage to the iconic Candler building and Atlanta's heritage, Candler Hotel Atlanta will be a wonderful addition to our portfolio and is an ideal illustration of how Curio hotels are embracing and preserving significant structures across the U.S.," said Matt Wehling, SVP, development - North America, Hilton Worldwide.
The building was originally developed more than a century ago by Asa Candler. When built in the early 1900s, it was Atlanta's first steel skyscraper, according to Hilton.

Renovations will transform the former office building into a 265-guestroom hotel featuring oversized king, double queen and suite rooms. The main level of the hotel will feature the Candler Building's Georgia-white marble grand staircase; original Tiffany windows; a restaurant and bar where Candler's bank was formerly housed; and lobby and lounge area. Meeting and event space will be available, as well as an outdoor rooftop space with a view of the city. Development Services Group is developing the hotel; REM is partnering with The Beck Group for design-build architecture and construction services; and Nicole Hollis for interior design.

"Atlanta is a city with a deep narrative of innovation and great antiquity," said Dianna Vaughan, global head, Curio - A Collection by Hilton. "Curio properties like Candler Hotel Atlanta will expertly integrate this narrative with the Curio brand promise to support local discovery, individuality and authentic experiences."
