The Georgian Terrace Hotel in Midtown Atlanta, part of the Fox Theatre Historic District, was designed by architect William Lee Stoddart in a Beaux-Arts style that was intended to evoke the architecture of Paris. Construction commenced on July 21, 1910, and ended on September 8, 1911, and the hotel opened on October 2, 1911.[2] The George C. Fuller Construction Company was contractor, and the developer was Joseph F. Gatins, Jr.[2]

A 19-story wing, designed by Smallwood, Reynolds, Stewart, Stewart and Associates, was added in 1991.[3][4] A major renovation was completed in 2009.

The Georgian Terrace is a member of Historic Hotels of America, the official program of the National Trust for Historic Preservation.
