  With most of the country two hours or less away by plane, getting to Atlanta is an easily accessible destination for most families in the United States. When they reach downtown, families enjoy touring the mammoth CNN Center, splashing in the fountains at Centennial Olympic Park, and strolling through the Georgia Aquarium. While most downtown hotels welcome families, a few in Atlanta work a little harder to spoil their smallest guests.
