    Why 5 stars? Because the Centurion Lounge in Atlanta feels more like a boutique hotel than an airport stopover. From the moment you walk in, the space feels open and calm, with a beautiful tree right in the center that gives the room an unexpected sense of nature and balance. There's plenty of room to sit and unwind -- whether you want to catch up on work, have a quiet meal, or just relax before a flight. We spent some time on the balcony watching planes take off, which ended up being surprisingly peaceful. The food was far better than most lounges I've visited. I had a full meal that felt fresh and well-prepared, not like something reheated in a back kitchen. My son loved the cornbread and his mango drink, and my wife enjoyed her Moscow Mule (strong enough that I joked she'd finally sleep on the plane). It's the kind of place that makes you wish boarding would take a little longer. Everything from the service to the layout feels intentional -- easily the best lounge experience I've had.

    I give the American Express Centurion Lounge next to Gate E11 in Concourse E at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL) a solid four stars. My wife and I had a good first impression of this place. That said, at ATL, our preferred lounge is still currently the Delta Sky Club in Concourse F because it's less crowded and hectic, everything is better stocked, and there are grab-and-go snacks. We've yet to see any grab-and-go snacks at any Centurion Lounge location and I bet it's because they'd constantly go out of stock. The Centurion Lounge at Hartsfield opened on February 14, 2024. We visited it for the first time this past Saturday morning. It's conveniently located near the center of Concourse E, just a short walk after you take the escalators up from the Plane Train station / tunnel. When we arrived at 9:37am, there was no line to enter and the lounge itself wasn't too crowded, which was nice. This was in stark contrast to our experience just a couple months ago (March 2025) at the Centurion Lounge at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) where it was uncomfortably crowded. What sets the Centurion Lounges apart from other airport lounges to me are their distinct style. Overall, they're among the most stylish lounges in terms of interior design and decor. I appreciate that Amex wants to give their customers an upscale, luxe look and feel. Atlanta's Centurion Lounge features real trees and lots of plants, inside and out (there's a neat plant-filled outdoor terrace). There's also a sophisticated-looking whiskey bar called "The Reserve by American Express." At the time of writing this review, this is the largest Centurion Lounge at almost 26,000 square feet. Thanks to a bigger and better layout, people flow through this lounge much better than the one at LAX. The food and drink were good and service was fine. Our breakfast and brunch items from the buffet included avocado toast, sausage links, verde salsa scrambled eggs with black pepper, bacon, sweet potato hash, honeydew, and French toast casserole with cappuccinos and a Bloody Mary. Yum. There are two double-sided, self-serve buffets. During our visits to the buffet, they were low on eggs and ran out of bacon. They also ran out of coffee mugs, so my wife had to hunt down a mug. The silverware didn't look clean to me, but that's just me being nitpicky -- I've seen similar at other restaurants and lounges that machine-wash their dinnerware. Most of the staff were constantly busy trying to restock, maintain, and clean everything. The bartender lady at The Reserve, who made our Bloody Mary, was very nice. In comparison, the Delta Sky Club lounges at LAX (Terminal 3, March 2025) and LaGuardia Airport (Terminal C, this past Monday) are better-run operations with more staff and therefore, better service. Centurion Lounge staff generally seem more overwhelmed. Something odd I noticed was several panes of glass looked broken and taped up with black tape. This was at the outdoor patio that faced the airport apron. What up with that?

    The Centurion Lounge offers a luxurious and functional space to await a flight. I stopped in on a layover and had a solid meal. The service at the bar was friendly and excellent. Definitely will stop in again on my next layover in ATL

    This lounge is stunning all around, with many natural features and 2 patio areas to enjoy, which I have found is rare for most lounges at major airports. The service was quick and attentive, with a special thanks going to the uber attentive reserve whiskey bar team thar kept the suggestions for drinks coming my way with a twist. Plenty of space for business work with several private rooms to take calls as well. A must stop on your next layover.

    This airport lounge is now the gold standard by which I'll compare clubs in other airports. This is the largest Centurion Lounge worldwide. So I gotta believe it seldom has a line to get in. Although we are flying out of the A terminal, we arrived early to make the trek to E11 to check this out. In the short time I've been here, the spaciousness and luxury is over the top. Whiskey Bar is super cool. Outdoor view areas were perfect in a 70 degree day. And the food was amazing. Unfortunately, I seldom fly to Atlanta or thru it. So it might be a while before my next visit. I'll conclude by saying WOW!

    American Express Centurion Lounge, next to Gate E-11 Let's start with ambiance. The space is huge, roughly twice the size of the normal Lounge. Extra tall ceilings, lounge sofas to accommodate two people, lots of conversation areas, tons of seating(mixture of different configurations). Several food buffets spread through the area, large bar with seating, plus bar kiosks spread throughout. The food seems hardier than the regular lounges. Today it's: soup, salad bar, Caesar salad, braised chicken, eggplant, Brussels sprouts, breads, cooked and brownies. Since it's such a large place, serving a couple hundred people every two hours (passengers can checks in two hours before flight, $50/per guest flying on same flight), the serve staff is super busy. After enjoying what they have to offer, I prefer the regular Amex lounges. The food is lighter, but more varied, the pace and atmosphere is more laid back, and the servers have more time to be friendly. But, try it at least once to see what you think.

    Always love this one. Great interior, awesome runway views. Nice food and top notch bartenders! Everything is always clean - supporting staff does great job about it. Check in might look hectic but again - staff makes it so nice

    This lounge is excellent, located in a decent spot in Terminal E. I was able to get in both times I tried without a wait. While busy, I was also able to find acceptable seating quickly. Atmosphere was a bit busy, but all around good. Buffet-style food was decent quality. The bar is excellent, with well-trained bar staff who can make anything you name, in addition to an adequate and creative preset cocktail menu. This is a great space to spend a layover.

    This is the best lounge I have been in since I started lounging in 2015. This location is in terminal E. It is complete with two food stations, shower and full bar. The desserts and food were so good! The space is high and offers seats in the dinning area, lounge areas or outside. The decor was beautiful and almost felt like you were outside. The staff were very nice and moved quickly to keep items stocked. Plan accordingly to your gate because you can get real comfortable in this spot.

    The service here was pretty good . The food was nice and plentiful and the drinks were made really well here. I sat for a couple of hours prior to my flight departing and enjoyed the lounge . It was a Friday and was super busy but the staff made sure the area was well kept and continually being cleaned and more food out . The decor is always stunning in these lounges in a big fan of it always . I grabbed some food and a drink while I awaited the plane . The process was easy and fast .

    Stopped in for a quick walkabout before boarding, during a long layover in Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson airport. We had stopped in at the nearby Delta Sky lounge, so didn't need any food or beverages. Took some pictures though. The entrance is located next to Gate E11 The check-in process is similar to other Centurion Lounges. You wait in line (pretty significant by the time I was leaving) to be called. An associate will scan your boarding pass (need to be flying on a Delta flight if using a Delta associated AMEX card), AMEX card that has access as a benefit, and picture ID. The inside is really nice, with large floor to ceiling windows. It has a variety of cold and hot foods, a full manned bar, and separate private rooms (not sure if you have to reserve them or not).

    Very nice lounge with good food choices! Great perk, that allows you access if you have an American Express Platinum card as a lot of the Ceturion lounges only allow you access if you have a black card. I love that they have pods where you can close the door and not be bothered! Note that the bar doesn't open until after 11am and you can only check in within 3 hours of your flight! They did a great job with keeping things clean and refilling all items!

    First visit to the relatively new Centurion Lounge at ATL. I am rarely in terminal E so I have never had time to check it out before. It's pretty impressive, basically all you could really ask is there. Great food, lots of options. Getting in was straight forward and everyone was really nice. I had to leave to go ask an airline a question and they let me right back in. Honestly it was a true five star experience. I would choose this lounge if possible over all other options.

The space is bright and has an open floor plan, basically one massive room with different sections of seating. The usual amenities are good, no complaints.

They always greet me with a smile and make sure everyone is taken care of. You can really tell they care about giving guests the best experience possible. The atmosphere is cozy and calm, which is such a nice break from the busy airport outside. The lighting is soft, the seating is comfortable, and it's easy to find a quiet spot to rest or get some work done. I love the soft background music and the clean, relaxing design--it just makes me feel at ease right away. Honestly, every time I'm here, I joke that all I need are a few recliners and I'd be ready to move in! It's that comfortable. The Sky Club truly makes travel days so much better, and I look forward to visiting every time I fly. If you need a peaceful place to unwind during your layover, this spot is absolutely worth it!

Dirty plates sat out for a while, likely due to minimal early-morning staffing. Later on more staff came in and cleanup was quick. The lounge area itself had a few varieties of seating. Except for a tiny room which had dim lighting, the rest of the lounge was brightly lit and it was difficult to catch up on some lost sleep there. There weren't any private nooks or rooms. Restrooms were also pretty basic, infact the more public restrooms in the airport were better. Overall it's not an outstanding lounge, pretty basic and forgettable. Somewhat surprising for a heavily used international airport like Atlanta.
