LOCAL AREA

While you are staying with us at the Holiday Inn & Suites, Alpharetta, you will be hard pressed to find another hotel in the area so close to the Big Creek Greenway Trail, the spot for families to enjoy the great outdoors with biking trails and walkways in a nature preserve. Keep your eye out for a Blue Heron, deer, ducks or geese.

In Alpharetta, visit Wills Park and see a variety of equestrian events. Check out technological artifacts at the Computer Museum of America in Roswell. In Atlanta, major attractions include the Georgia Aquarium, World of Coke, Centennial Olympic Park, High Museum of Art, and Atlanta Botanical Gardens. Metro Atlanta's theme parks include Six Flags and White Water.

Experience a historic downtown district that has maintained its small town appeal. See a show at Ameris Bank Amphitheatre, summer home of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra. Discover world-class shopping, including the southeast's only American Girl Boutique and Bistro, dining, and entertainment at North Point Mall, Avalon and Halcyon. Learn something new at Publix Apron’s Cooking School.

If you're looking for a small, local music venue, check out jazz at The Velvet Note or visit Matilda's, a small, outdoor venue with concerts starting in the spring.
