GEORGIA HOTELIER NAVIN Patel has contracted with Hospitality Ventures Management Group to manage his 111-room boutique Darwin Hotel in Atlanta. HVMG oversaw the
complete rebranding and renovation of the hotel.
The four-story Darwin is in Atlanta's Old Fourth Ward and features eight individually themed suites and a lobby that displays a collection of local art. It is named
after evolutionary biologist Charles Darwin and the themes include the Bar Room, featuring a full bar for entertaining; the Bunk Bed Room, with bunk beds and extra
space for families and young adults; and the Audiophile Room, which includes a turntable and access to the hotel's vinyl music library.
Navin Patel and his two sons, Shyam and Sagar, purchased the property in 2016.
"We hope to showcase the best of what Atlanta has to offer," Navin Patel said. "This hotel is a love letter to our ever-changing city and pays homage to its history.
Being in the heart of a large metropolitan city creates opportunities for artists, businesspeople, world travelers and people from all walks of life to all unite in
our space."
Darwin is the capital city of the Northern Territory, Australia. It's a small but kind of cosmopolitan city. Darwin is the most multi-cultural city in the world. Since it locates near Indonesia and Singapore, Darwin looks outward to Asia as much as it looks inland to the rest of Australia.
