During your Atlanta vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Callanwolde Fine Arts Center
A magnificent Gothic/Tudor-style mansion built for Coca-Cola heir Charles Howard Candler in 1920, Callanwolde today serves as a fine-arts center for city residents. Ongoing classes are given in pottery, painting, photography, drawing, and more, and there are numerous workshops for adults and children. The estate occupies 12 acres in the Druid Hills section of Atlanta, an area planned by Frederick Law Olmsted, designer of New York's Central Park. You may be surprised that most of the rooms are bare; only Callanwolde's exquisite walnut paneling, beautifully carved ceilings and moldings, grand staircase, magnificent marble and stone fireplaces, and leaded-glass windows evoke its luxurious past.Visitors are welcome to peruse shows of local artists in the Petite Hall gallery upstairs; enjoy the lawns and formal gardens, which are maintained by the county; and take in the concerts, storytelling evenings, one and two-day workshops, and dance performances on offer. Check the website to see what's going on when you're in town, because attending an event here is the best way to experience the estate. Especially memorable is Christmas at Callanwolde, when the entire house is decorated for the season and craft shops are set up in different rooms.
Fernbank Science Center
Owned and funded by the DeKalb County School System, this museum/planetarium/observatory, located adjacent to the 65-acre Fernbank Forest, is an educational partner of the Fernbank Museum of Natural History. Plan to visit the entire complex on the same day. There's a 1 1/2-mile forest trail here, with trees, shrubs, ferns, wildflowers, mosses, and other plants marked for identification. An extensive rose garden is located next door to the museum.The indoor facility houses exhibits such as a video display on geological phenomena (volcanoes, earthquakes, mountain formation, and so on); a gem collection; an exhibit tracing the development of life in Georgia from 500 million years ago to a million years ago; a complete weather station; fossilized trees; the original Apollo 6 space capsule and space suit (on loan from the Smithsonian); computer games; a replica of the Okefenokee Swamp, complete with sound effects; and models of dinosaurs that roamed Atlanta in prehistoric times. There are planetarium shows, and, at the Observatory, which contains the largest telescope in the world dedicated to public education, an astronomer gives talks and helps visitors to spot celestial objects.
The Hammonds House Galleries & Resource Center of African-American Art
Occupying the 1857 Eastlake Victorian-style former home of Dr. Otis T. Hammonds, a black anesthesiologist and art patron, Hammonds House is a national center for the exhibition, preservation, research, and documentation of African-American art and artists. The permanent collection includes Hammonds' extensive compilation of works by African-American and Haitian artists, as well as his collection of African masks and carvings. These works are complemented by later acquisitions including pieces by Romare Bearden, William H. Johnson, Robert S. Duncanson, and Elizabeth Catlett. The permanent collection is shown on a rotating basis and is supplemented by exhibitions featuring the work of renowned black artists from all over the world. The Resource Center, housing documents on African-American art and artists, is open to the public by appointment.The house is located in the thriving West End neighborhood, which was declared a historic district in 1991. While you're in the area, take a look at the other lovingly restored Victorian bungalows and houses. A short walk away is the Atlanta University Center, the largest historically African-American education complex in the world, home to prestigious Morehouse College. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., is Morehouse's most famous alumnus; a chapel was built on the campus to honor his memory.
Omni Hotel at CNN Center
A major $100 million expansion brings 593 new rooms (in a 24-story tower) and a complete personality change to this hotel, wiping out the blah sterile convention atmosphere and injecting class and sophistication. Plus, the Omni still offers an excellent location -- especially if you're attending a sporting event. It adjoins the Georgia World Congress Center, Philips Arena, the Georgia Dome, and the CNN Center, and is across from Centennial Olympic Park and Imagine It! Children's Museum of Atlanta. Many of the rooms have balconies that overlook the bustle of the CNN Center atrium; the rest have views of Centennial Olympic Park or the downtown skyline. The location of the Omni inside the CNN Center is convenient if you want to do a little shopping, grab a bite to eat, or just let the kids burn off steam.Rooms are appointed with cherry furnishings, including oversized headboards and armoires. Bathrooms feature marble floors and Chinese granite countertops. Impressive views of the downtown skyline or Centennial Olympic Park are available from some rooms -- be sure to request one. The suites here include huge living/dining areas with wet bars. If you're in Atlanta for a very special occasion and don't have a problem dropping $2,000 a night, ask for The Omni Suite. This three-bedroom, four-bathroom, two-level suite extraordinaire is where media mogul Ted Turner stays when he is in town. Sadly, a room search for Turner relics came up empty; not even a forgotten workout video was to be found. Eleven rooms have been modified for visitors with disabilities. Signs around the hotel are written in Braille, and each guest room has a strobe fire alarm for deaf guests. While these digs are comparable to the Embassy Suites just across the street, service here is just a tad better. If you're traveling with kids, don't forget to ask about the Omni Kids program.

This well-run suite hotel is an excellent value, perfect for an extended business stay or a long weekend. The spacious and homey one- and two-bedroom apartment-style suites offer pull-out sofas and large kitchen areas that include full-size appliances, coffeemakers, dishwashers, and toasters. The bathrooms are fairly standard. Some of the two-bedroom suites can easily sleep eight people, making these a great option for large families. The hotel is set back from a busy street, so all the rooms are quiet. Ask for one of the rooms overlooking the pool and patio.Although you won't be within walking distance of most of the Buckhead attractions or the MARTA station, there is a courtesy van that will take you anywhere within a 3-mile radius. Four suites are accessible to travelers with disabilities. Pets are allowed with a $75 nonrefundable deposit.In addition to a complimentary deluxe continental breakfast, there is an evening social Monday to Thursday with complimentary beer, wine, and light snacks or meals.
