About this property
1928 Historic Charmer - The BEST of Atlanta's Old and New
Hartford House is a true gem of an historic property in an historic neighborhood.
The home is comfortable and cozy, with the original layout retained. The convenient home also has special elements such as local decor and one-of-a-kind works of art.
Hartford House is a great mix of old and new - which fits Atlanta perfectly. Atlanta is a wonderful blend of traditional charm and modern cool.
When you stay with us, you will be close to downtown, all the best city sights, and transportation hubs.
Atlanta is a true FOUR season city. It feels like summer, y’all! But it’s not quite too hot yet - lovely and sunny!
It's time for lively events and sunny porches!
Summer comes with fun festivals and great activities - games, concerts, and long sunny days. And we have amazing places to enjoy the festivities - the botanical garden is wonderful to stroll, as is the Georgia Aquarium. And Atlanta’s famous tree canopy shows off!!! Our amazing trees have new growth sprouting and flowers are blooming.
This city is a great place for a staycation or vacation. It is truly one of the most underrated cities in the US. Hartford House is close to most of the best events, sightseeing, and shopping in the Southeast.
There is something for everyone ... You can enjoy outside activities and the zoo; and there are also tons of indoor activities, such as museums, shopping, and performances, for any gloomy or rainy day. Hartford House is perfectly located for your home base while in the Atlanta area.
We call Hartford House our "nice and comfy" home base. We call it NICE because it has a few more details guests won't find in other rentals in the area, like a working gas fireplace, a roomy "sit and stay" front porch, a sunny and private side deck, and 3 sizes of beds and basically 3 levels of firmness. And TONS of pillows for even the most picky sleeper.
It's COMFY because guests are so comfortable they feel like they live here--everything you need to prepare meals or get comfortable after a day on the town. And with just a few blocks to the train station and a few stops on the train (or a few miles if driving) from the airport, guests find the house to be the perfect spot for their business or leisure travel.
Less than 3 miles from Mercedes-Benz Stadium, only a few blocks to the MARTA Train Station, and so close to Atlanta's tourist sites - such as the world-famous aquarium and our amazing little zoo.
10 minutes to Fox Theatre and other Midtown points of interest, like the world-famous Piedmont Park. Less than 10 minutes to the zoo, the aquarium, and Downtown. A short ride to the MKL sites. 3 minutes to 3 of the best breweries (and distillery) in the city. Close to some great natural areas (Arabia Mountain, Cascade Springs, Sweetwater Creek, and relatively close to Lake Lanier & Stone Mountain). Close enough to Chateau Elan for a day trip.
Nestled under Atlanta's famous tree canopy, on a quiet street, you will have all the convenience of the city, while in a restful, and REAL, neighborhood.
Believe it or not, we have foxes, owls, and lots and lots of birds. It's the best of both worlds...close to the glam of the city, but on a street that feels like the country!
Come visit and you will see why guests love Hartford House. Come enjoy the best of new Atlanta and old Atlanta.

About the host
Hosted by Laura Robinson
Travel is one of the most important priorities for our family of four. We have been traveling the country since our kids were babies - we have seen all 48 contiguous states, plus Alaska. We plan to see Hawaii soon.
We love traveling... and we are so pleased to be able to offer our nice and comfortable home to other fellow travelers at a reasonable cost.
Because we have seen most of the United States, up close and personal, and we know Atlanta is one of the most welcoming, interesting, and exciting cities in the country.
Atlanta offers something for every traveler and our small neighborhood of Capitol View in Southwest Atlanta gives guests a chance to be in the city -- but also in a less frantic part of town. We absolutely love being able to host travelers in our home.
We also LOVE nice people. We call our home nice and comfy and we are nice people ourselves. We so enjoy opening our home to other NICE people. If you love historic homes in historic neighborhoods, love nice parks, and nice tree-lined streets, you love nice comforts of a cozy home, you will love our Hartford House.
We also believe nice people understand that Atlanta is a city just like any other city. It is not sterile...it has real people here, and not everyone will look and act like you.
We believe this is an advantage of our neighborhood, not a negative. We also will do everything within our control to ensure you have a comfortable and pleasant stay with us...and in turn we expect our guests to be reasonable and that they also are respectful of our home, our neighbors, and our neighborhood.
And the end of the day, we have found most people really like our home and 'hood. Atlanta is everything a mid-sized Southern city should be.
We hope you come see us--we think you will like it, too.
Why they chose this property
We love our home because it is the perfect combination of city and "country" with exceptional proximity to everything Atlanta has to offer.
The home is on a tree lined street in an historic neighborhood that has retained its authentic character and interesting and cool vibe.
We are proud that Capitol View is one of the remaining neighborhoods that has stayed true to its roots and we are ecstatic that we can offer a nice home for guests that is at a price point that makes traveling accessible for anyone.
You will find a more manicured neighborhood somewhere in Atlanta, but not at our price point, and not with our amazing neighbors and authentic feel.
Our home is in the city...and wonderfully close to downtown and most attractions --- but because it IS in the city, it is possible that you might encounter certain city elements. We can never guarantee you won't see any homeless individuals, or trash on the city roads, or any unpleasantries.
We can promise, however, that as hosts we will always give you accurate information, answer any questions you have, provide all reasonable assistance, and be as helpful and honest as we can be about our home, our neighborhood, and the city.
You will tell you enthusiastically that we love our home and love Atlanta. We hope you love it also!
What makes this property unique
Our rental home is very close to the city's mass transit system (MARTA) and only a few train stops from the airport (or a few miles if you are renting a car instead of taking the train).
The neighborhood has one of the best city parks, with tennis, DISC golf, and a playground with splashpad in the summer. Our neighborhood is only a mile off the interstate, but provides access to the city on surface streets when traffic is heavy.
You can walk or bike to the famous Atlanta Beltline directly from the doorstep. You can feel the history of the house and the neighborhood, with its generous front porch and Atlanta-themed decor. We have a very active neighborhood association, and neighbors who actually wave at you and have time for conversation.
It's a small town area in the city - so it has the best of the country and the city.
