The Westin Peachtree Plaza hotel is turning 40 this year. The 73 floor skyscraper has been an Atlanta staple for residents and guests alike. The amenities are top notch and if you’ve ever had dinner or a cocktail at the Sun Dial then you know that the staff at the hotel go all out. For those of you who haven’t, the Sun Dial sits on the 73rd floor with three different levels. The bottom level is the dining room, the middle is a observation deck and the top level is the bar and lounge. What really adds a wow factor is that the dining room and lounge both rotate 360 degrees giving patrons a constantly changing view of the city.
