Courtyard by Marriott Gainesville GA

10/10 Excellent

"Everything it was reported to be and more!!!"

Holiday Inn Express & Suites Dahlonega by IHG

8/10 Good

"We enjoyed our stay here. You can definitely tell it’s an older building that’s been renovated. The rooms are clean, the bathrooms are brand new. There are two parking garages- one on the side, and one in the back. The side garage was filled but the back garage had a lot of open spaces. Both have direct card access to the hotel elevators which was convenient. Parking was a big deal for me especially being downtown, but pleasantly surprised it was no problem at all. Breakfast was a nice selection. Staff was friendly and had recommendations for walkable restaurants. I would stay here again."
