Atlanta Public Transit ... It's MARTA!

MARTA is your least expensive mode of getting from Hartsfield Atlanta International Airport to the Atlanta Hilton and Towers

Peachtree Center Station (N1) is the closest rail station to the hotel. From this rail station, [MARTA Bus] MARTA suggests transferring to bus routes 16 or 31; transfers between bus and rail service are free.

Alternatively, you may walk through Peachtree Center to the Hilton Hotel. From Peachtree Center, a covered bridge or walkway extends to the seventh floor of a parking garage. The garage is located across the street from the Hilton Hotel, and you must walk outside to get from the garage to the hotel. Flat shoes are recommended. This walk can be strenuous, especially if you are carrying extra baggage or if the temperatures are unpredictably higher than normal. The route is not recommended during inclement weather.

Airport Shuttle

The Atlanta Airport Shuttle operates from Hartsfield Atlanta International Airport 7 AM to 10:45 PM. Starting at 7:15 AM, vans depart every fifteen to twenty minutes for the downtown from the south side of Ground Transportation mall (outside of the Delta Air Lines Baggage Claim area). Reservations are not required. Tickets for one-way and round-trip transportation to downtown hotels can be purchased at the brown booth in the Ground Transportation mall.

From the Atlanta Hilton, the Airport Shuttle returns to the airport 10 minutes and 40 minutes after the hours, beginning at 7:10 AM with the last pickup at 7:40 PM. Reservations are required for other times.

The cost of a one-way trip between the airport and hotel is $8. Round-trip tickets are $14 each. There is an additional $2 off of the cost of round-trip tickets when a coupon is presented upon purchase.
