  • Enjoy some extended footage of the Westin Peachtree Plaza in Atlanta. After riding up the 70+ floor scenic elevators, we go around the observation deck on the top level enjoying views for miles in every direction. This was a great introduction to the city! Featuring ems318.

    This Westin is so storied on my end. I’ve stayed here 6 previous times dating all the way back to 2007, and my last four stays have dated to December 2014, where the hotel itself was renovated in early 2014. It looks WAYYYY better than it used to, especially the lobby and the rooms! I’m staying here again in April.

    Awesome vantage point of the city, wow! Never been to ATL but obviously the Westin there shares some similarity to the Ren Cen here in Detroit.

    Cool video! Nice-looking hotel too! I definitely intend to visit that observation deck if I ever get to return to Atlanta after a 12 and a half year absence so far. I typed this comment in early February of 2021, and want to try to visit Atlanta in March of 2021 so I hope the pandemic didn't shut down the observation deck..

    I live in Macon Georgia, and whenever we go to Atlanta, we eat at the restaurant at the top.

    When the one guy says that for a time the hotel was the tallest in the world he may be correct but only barely. There is an exact duplicate of the Peachtree in Detroit and their heights are virtually identical. The Peachtree may have edged the one in Detroit out due to which entrance was used. For example, the Sears Tower in Chicago used to list it's official height as 1,454 ft. However, the tower had entrances on multiple streets and they used the lowest street to add a few feet to the building's height. Now they use the main entrance to record the height and since that entrance is 4 feet higher than the lower one, the building's official height is now 1,450 ft. The same scenario occurred with the Peachtree in Atlanta.

      Tallest hotel, but not the tallest building in Atlanta. BOA Plaza is the tallest building in Atlanta.

    I should probably get back to Atlanta soon. I was here back in 2010 and this was where I stayed. It was cheap only because of the renovations and the tornado damage this building had at the time

    What I found really cool is how the Westin Peachtree compares to the central tower of the Renaissance Center in Detroit
    They share almost the exact same design
    They're both in the 720s in terms of feet high
    They're both hotels (One's a Westin, the others a Marriot)
    And they were built one year apart (Renaissance Center in 1977, Westin Peachtree in 1976

    Wow that is a VERY slow elevator for a 73-story building. I've ridden one nearly twice that fast in a 13-story hotel in San Antonio, TX. I guess it's slow so you get a better view. But still, that must have taken almost 3 minutes just to get up and down in the hotel. LOL!!! Great video though. :)

    I had a Thyssenkrupp tech take me up to the roof to see the machine room for these. These have Elevonic 411M controllers and 219HT machines that can go at the same speed as the main ones but they thought it was too fast.
