InterContinental Hotel Group to Build Custom Hotel with Rooftop Bar and Global Fusion Restaurant
ATLANTA (Dec. 10, 2018) – Holiday Inn & Suites is breaking ground on a new custom hotel at 4401 Chamblee Dunwoody Road just south of I-285 that is scheduled to open in 2020. The new five-story hotel, part of InterContinental Hotels Group’s (IHG) portfolio of brands, will feature a rooftop bar and a global fusion restaurant from chef and restaurateur Archna Becker of Atlanta’s acclaimed North Indian restaurant Bhojanic. A groundbreaking ceremony is taking place at the hotel site on Friday, Dec. 14 from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m.
“The Chamblee area of Atlanta is experiencing a tremendous amount of development right now, and Holiday Inn & Suites will attract the business travelers and tourists needed to support this boom,” says manager member Mohammad Hossain of Nirvana Land LLC. “We are thrilled to be opening the hotel in this thriving market and look forward to supporting the local Chamblee economy.”
The new hotel is located right near the Chamblee-Dunwoody exit on I-285 and offers travelers an affordable, enjoyable hotel experience where guests are always welcomed warmly. This location also boasts convenient access to new retail and office spaces, three top medical centers and desirable Atlanta-area neighborhoods such as Brookhaven and Dunwoody. IHG’s Americas office is also located near the new hotel site.
The completely custom Chamblee Holiday Inn & Suites will feature 143 rooms, underground parking for up to 182 cars, the first hotel rooftop bar in the area, and food and beverage operations helmed by one of Atlanta’s leading chefs.
On Dec. 14, the project’s lenders and construction team are gathering with lead architect Daniel Lemberg of Architect LLC and interior designer Cinda Walker of Design Associates, Inc. to celebrate the hotel’s future and answer questions. A food and beverage tent will be available, as well as plenty of photo opportunities featuring team members breaking ground with gold shovels.

Attended the Design Immersion Seminars for IHG hotels
If you are looking for an interior design company, look no further than Cinda Walker and Design Associates. You’d be foolish not to engage her for your project.
During the boom years of golf course development, we hired Cinda to do the interior design and purchasing for three new clubs in the Atlanta area, one of which was a very high profile Robert Trent Jones, Jr. course and Chapman, Coyle, Chapman clubhouse. Her work and imagination were remarkable. Cinda can be traditional when it calls for it and progressive if you need her to be.
Equally important, she is a delight to work with. Hire her!

I have worked with Cinda and her firm Design Associates Inc. for approximately 8 years on various projects when I was VP for Construction/ Projects at HVMG and another additional year at my firm DanaCon consulting. We have worked with Cinda on every kind of project from Full service to limited service to new restaurant/lounge concepts etc. She has helped up with several of the major Brands to develop new concept designs which helped set the bar for the brand.
Cinda and her firm are extremely knowledgeable, nimble and creative on the design side and on the budget side- always found her to be very flexible with budgets in regards to design and realities of budget constraints.
I would highly recommend Cinda and her firm for your project needs.
