Job description

About Us
Here in the Empire City of the South, Kimpton Sylvan Hotel stands poised between skyscrapers and tree-canopied estates. Originally constructed in 1952, Kimpton Sylvan is newly reimagined as a boutique hotel perfect for business and leisure travelers alike. Its design pays homage to the building's mid-century roots while looking forward with bold, contemporary art and accents. Of course, design is only the beginning. We've brought a taste of the Buckhead experience right inside our walls. Join us at our restaurant, an old-school supper club serving modern takes on continental American classics. Step up to an elevated bar for a signature Old Fashioned. Wander out to our whimsical garden bar for a glass of wine under thick foliage of mature trees. In fact, the arboreal abundance in our back yard inspired the name "Sylvan"-derived from the Latin word "silva," meaning forest. Upstairs, our rooftop bar is a starlit wind-down before retiring to your guestroom. We can't wait to welcome you to timeless hospitality, Kimpton Sylvan style.
