This was taken at an outside garden at the Crowne Ravinia plaza. I was at a conference there the past weekend. It's a beautiful place to stay, especially if your at a conference. The staff is very hospitable and catering to group needs. The hotel had an indoor and outdoor garden which is quite beautiful. If you feel like spending a lot of money and want to stay in the dunwoody area it's a great place. Or, if your planning or at a conference it's a perfect location.
