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.
