Pivot will manage the 196-room boutique hotel, including modern Italian steakhouse Il Premio, Bar Premio, Mediterranean restaurant Elektra and rooftop lounge Moonlight.
“It is a privilege to collaborate with our partners at New City Properties to continue raising the bar for performance by creating exceptional experiences for our members and guests right in our backyard,” Thom Geshay, CEO and president of Davidson Hospitality Group, said in the release. “Leveraging the notoriety of the neighborhood to foster a sense of place combined with the truly standout design and amenities from elevated dining to the city’s premiere social club, we look forward to delivering warm, heartfelt hospitality, where guests can immerse themselves in the best of what Atlanta has to offer.”
