2. Beltline Loft
Why you should stay: An airy loft in a great location
- Sleeps: 3
- Minimum stay: 2 nights
- Rates from: $225/night
If you have a tendency to feel cramped in most hotel rooms or Airbnb rentals, the Beltline Loft is for you, as this loft is anything but cramped. Housed in a 1900’s cotton warehouse, it boasts soaring ceilings nearly 20 feet high and tons of natural light. It’ll be one of your favorite airbnbs in Atlanta if you’re a fan of the city’s industrial, historical past.
If you can bear to leave the gorgeous, sunny space with its minimalistic decor, you’ll find a convenient location on Atlanta’s BeltLine, a former railway corridor revitalized as a walking trail. Along the way, you’ll find public art, tours, fitness classes and more, as well as tons of shopping and dining. It’s akin to New York City’s Highline, but everything is a bit cheaper.
