Hotel Granada joins Design Hotels portfolio following restoration

Following a recent refresh, the Hotel Granada in midtown Atlanta is now part of Marriott’s Design Hotels soft brand.

Originally built in 1924 as the Granada Apartments, Hotel Granada underwent a restoration led by developer Monomoy Property Ventures and Scarp Ridge Capital Partners. The 120-room hotel opened in August 2024 after a two-year gut renovation, redevelopment and reimagining of the 100-year-old building.

“We are honored to be welcomed into the Design Hotels family,” said Kevin Vaughan, founder of Monomoy Property Ventures. “The property was reimagined with deep respect for its century-long history, while incorporating an artful, contemporary lens to Atlanta’s cultural identity. Design Hotels’ commitment to authenticity and thoughtful design is a perfect match for our property. We are thrilled to partner with Marriott Bonvoy, the leading global loyalty program, while retaining Granada’s unique character within Atlanta’s hospitality landscape.”

Designed by MetroStudio and interior designer Cameron Carr, Hotel Granada’s aesthetic is designed to embrace its Spanish Colonial roots while incorporating bespoke Southern elements. Atlanta iconography appears throughout the space.
