Enjoy Our Hotel's Downtown Athens, GA LocationLocated just yards away from the University of Georgia campus, our hotel's facilities feature an excellent location in downtown Athens, making the Holiday Inn Express® Hotel Athens - University Area the place to stay for Bulldog fans. When in Athens for business, our hotel's corporate guests can use the on-site Business Center whenever they please. Other amenities include meeting rooms that can accommodate up to 100 people. We are also near several area businesses, as well as the UGA Medical School. Besides being near UGA, our hotel's guests also find themselves close to the vibrant downtown area, so it's easy to enjoy the shopping, dining and entertainment for which Athens is justifiably famous. At the end of the day, attend a show at the Georgia Theatre or the Fabulous 40 Watt Club. Before beginning their day in Athens, our hotel's guests can Stay Smart and visit the complimentary, hot Express Start Breakfast Bar, which we serve every morning. We also provide free high-speed, wireless Internet access throughout the hotel, and we have an outdoor pool and Fitness Center on-site.
