My husband and I recently stayed at the Shellmont for a long weekend away. It was a lovely house in the middle of town with kind innkeepers. The house is beautiful and a well maintained historic property - my favorite kind! We booked the Veranda room and I have to say the bed was so unbelievably comfortable that it was... More

Read about Shellmont on Trip Advisor and it was as described -- and better. Debby and Ed were great (breakfast was sumptuous) and just wish we had stayed longer. Best, though, was the location, just blocks from Piedmont Park and the Dogwood Festival and some great restaurants and bars. Great weekend!

I just returned from a weeks stay at the Shellmont which was wonderful. I had the Downing room which was actually quite large and appointed in the victorian style, but not overly done so the room was very comfortable. My bed was extremely comfortable and so clean and fresh and white I wasn't surprised to learn that the linens are... More

My brother and our wives swooped into Atlanta for four nights of fun and college basketball. Not as many B&B's in Atlanta to choose from for a town this size. We nave now stayed here twice and find Debbbie and Ed a lot of fun, plus the place is quite nice. Parking can be a bit tricky and the rooms... More

We were delighted that you returned for your second Final Four at Shellmont Inn. As you know it was a very busy and late night for the city, so we kept our landscaping lights so the premises would be well-lite for your return to the inn. We are looking forward to having you back at Shellmont Inn for the next... More

The Inn is a late 19th Century family home located in 'Midtown' Atlanta. Access from the interstate is easy and the Inn is within easy walking/driving distance of the High Museum and Botanical Gardens. Even closer is a nice selection of restaurants. Rooms are clean and attractively decorated in furniture appropriate to the period. Our hosts were gracious and extremely... More

My husband and I stayed in the Carriage House at Shellmont for a milestone birthday celebration. The inn was adorably decorated in antiques, and the carriage house (just steps away from the main building) was as well except for the updated bathroom and kitchen. It was a cold winter weekend, but the garden between the main house and the carriage... More

We went to ATL for a friend's engagement party and got engaged ourselves! The Shellmont is a beautiful house and a special place. Debbie and Ed make it more than just a bed and breakfast. They welcome you into their home and their infectious love for the house (coupled with their incredible food) made the weekend very special. They helped... More

My husband and I stayed in the cottage at the Shellmont Inn on our wedding night and our first weekend as man and wife. We had the Romance Package which was presented with an eye for detail.

I had to travel to ATL on a quick business trip and everything was sold out because of the Mart. Luckily, the Shellmont had one room available and what a pleasant surprise! The house is simply gorgeous. It was smack dab in the middle of everything. My only regret is that I wasn't there with my spouse to share this... More

Tagged along with my hubby on a business trip. Debbie and Ed were the best hosts. The house is fabulous, and Debbie's breakfasts are phenomenal. The location is excellent, lots of great restaurants nearby, and easy MARTA access, too. I would heartily recommend the Shellmont Inn, and will definitely stay there if/when we are back in Altanta.
