The light-filled space is the perfect setting for working or relaxing, and both new and repeat guests have offered positive feedback on the changes. The Atrium is also home to a bar, where guests and visitors can enjoy light snacks, handmade cocktails, beer and wine. Additional dining opportunities include Blue, A Savannah Bistro and Bar. The restaurant, serving three meals a day, offers a contemporary American menu. The bar, open for lunch, offers many of the items from the restaurant in a more casual, social setting.
