New LivSmart in Decatur

Omega Hotel Group is planning a Hilton LivSmart Studios hotel on 10.92 acres on this property that’s just east of the Beltline Road Southwest intersection.

LivSmart specializes in extended stays (weeks or months) with “modern farmhouse” design, fully equipped kitchens (including dishwashers and stovetops), and flexible furniture.

An $11 million permit was issued to GCC Construction for the project.
