Signia by Hilton Breaks Ground at Georgia World Congress Center

Georgia World Congress Center Authority (GWCCA) and Hilton this week broke ground on the first newly constructed hotel for Signia by Hilton.

Signia by Hilton is a meetings and events brand, combining an elevated hotel experience with premium meeting and event spaces. Boston-based Drew Company is the developer for the 975-room property with Gensler as the architect and a joint venture between Skanska and SG Contracting as the general contractor.

Owned by GWCCA and managed by Hilton Management Services, Signia by Hilton Atlanta will overlook the Mercedes-Benz Stadium sports and entertainment complex and will be connected to the Congress Center. Offering 75,000 square feet of world-class meeting space, a destination bar, signature restaurant, premium wellness amenities, and modern guestrooms, construction is expected to be completed by late 2023.

Using feedback from meeting professionals, guests, owners, and developers Signia by Hilton, the company said, was created to solve gaps in the industry. Today, consumer and professional feedback continues to shape Signia by Hilton, which now utilizes "Hilton EventReady with CleanStay," delivering innovative solutions to address the evolving needs of meeting professionals, including flexibility in planning and transparency in cleanliness policies. 

Signia by Hilton Atlanta will join a portfolio of hotels in both urban and resort destinations, and offers a variety of amenities and services, including:

  • Impressive arrival experience: Guests will be greeted by grand, locally inspired architecture in the lobby and manicured landscaping.
  • Modern guestrooms: From the high-quality contemporary design and finishes that take inspiration from the Atlanta area to the use of technology—such as Digital Key, which allows guests to check-in, enter and control room settings via a smartphone.  
  • A destination bar: The bar will serve as the heart of Signia by Hilton Atlanta, offering sophisticated design and serving as the go-to place for on-trend cocktails and small plates.
  • A range of food options: The property will have a signature restaurant, providing Atlanta locals and guests with elevated dishes and beverages. Signia by Hilton Atlanta will also have an upscale grab-and-go market for those looking to enjoy a take-out meal or snack.
  • Premium wellness offerings: The hotel will have a fitness center, as well as group classes and activities.   
  • Elevated meetings and events: No matter the size of the gathering, Signia by Hilton Atlanta’s meeting and event spaces will provide a contemporary, comfortable setting and advanced technology.
