The location of this hotel is excellent. Very close to restaurants and things to do. The rooms are comfortable and well apportioned. Also very clean and neat. Noise level was really nice and I liked most aspects.

Large and lovely hotel in downtown Athens, walking distance from the U. of Georgia campus and many restaurants and shops. Highly recomend! Very professional front desk staff and large and well decorated rooms. Common areas feature a cozy seating area and a pretty bar. As this is a prime hotel in a college town, prices run on the steep side, but we expected that.....

I enjoyed my stay at the Hotel Indigo in Athens. The rooms were nicely decorated and clean. I loved the in room lotion, hand soap, and body wash. All 3 smelled great. Location wise this can't be beat. It's in the heart of downtown and adjacent to UGA. There are tons of restaurants nearby to choose from. The parking lot looks small when you pull in to check in, but there is a another parking level once you go through the gate. Rebekah at the front desk had great food recommendations. Ella at the bar was very witty and humorous.

Yikes. This hotel room was filthy. We got in late at night and then ran out the next morning. I did not notice Joe bad it was until about 16 hours after we checked in. I did not bring this to management’s attention - which I should have but we were there for a wedding and our schedule was too packed to get into it. I actually meant to take more photos but forgot. The mold ring in the toilet was a big one. I love the indigo hotel brand but this was super bad.
