I recently had the opportunity to document the grand rebranding and redesign of The Starling Hotel, a gem nestled in the heart of Atlanta. As a commercial photographer, it was a delight to explore this beautifully transformed boutique hotel. It’s now part of the Curio Collection by Hilton. The Starling Hotel seamlessly marries a local charm with the allure of a larger hotel.
Under the skilled guidance of MSquared PR, we wanted to capture the essence of The Starling’s unique features and experiences. Needless to say, it was an absolute treat!
We started in complete serenity in the Starling’s spa. The variety of treatment rooms at the spa showcased an inviting ambiance, tailored to provide relaxation, and rejuvenation. And let’s not forget the calming quiet room! It’s a sanctuary for guests seeking a tranquil escape from the bustle of everyday life. I may be coming back to visit it!
Next on our agenda was a visit to the revamped rooftop pool, an oasis that embodies sophistication and relaxation. Complete with luxurious cabana service and a vibrant poolside restaurant and bar, it’s a haven for those seeking a dip in the pool while indulging in delectable food and drinks. I couldn’t help but imagine myself lounging there on a sunny afternoon.
Our grand finale for the day was Lantana, the restaurant and bar located just off the lobby. A bustling and beautifully designed space, Lantana welcomes guests with impeccable service and delectable cuisine. It’s the perfect spot for guests to unwind after a day of exploring the city or attending business meetings.
The Starling Hotel’s transformation from the W Midtown is nothing short of spectacular. The rebranding has brought it back to life, and its inclusion in the Curio Collection by Hilton ensures that guests experience the warmth and hospitality of a boutique establishment along with the amenities of a larger hotel.
As a commercial photographer based in Atlanta, I’m thrilled to have been part of this journey, capturing the elegance, style, and uniqueness that The Starling Hotel brings to the city. If you’re in Atlanta or planning a visit, I highly recommend experiencing The Starling for yourself. Whether it’s the serene spa, the stunning rooftop pool, or the lively ambiance of Lantana, you’re in for an unforgettable stay.
