Hotel Weston - Ballpark Marietta GA
A simple, pet-friendly base near Franklin Gateway
About this hotel
This straightforward Marietta hotel keeps things simple: free Wi-Fi, free parking and a pet-friendly policy, without a restaurant, pool or fitness suite to push the rate up. It sits nine minutes by taxi from Six Flags White Water near Franklin Gateway SE at Kingston Ct, and a short walk to Jerusalem Bakery & Grill covers dinner without needing the car after a full day of slides. It suits a family whose trip revolves entirely around the water park and does not need much from the hotel beyond a clean room, free parking and a place to sleep between long days at the gates. The fitness center is the one extra on offer here, useful for a parent who wants to stay active without paying for a fuller-service property nearby.

Our take
This works for a family that wants the absolute basics covered, free parking, a pet-friendly policy, a short ride to the park, without paying for a pool or breakfast they might not use anyway during a park-focused trip. It is a less natural fit for a family that wants an on-site pool as a rest-day option between long, tiring days spent entirely at the park gates.
- ✓Book this hotel if a pool is not a priority, since the trip's main entertainment is expected to come entirely from the water park itself.
- ✓Walk to Jerusalem Bakery & Grill for a casual dinner, since it sits just a few minutes from the hotel on foot.
- ✓Confirm the pet policy details at booking, since fees and restrictions can vary even among pet-friendly properties nearby.

Why guests love itWe didn't need much from the hotel beyond a clean room and free parking, since the whole trip was built around Six Flags White Water anyway, and this delivered exactly that without extra cost. The nine-minute taxi ride kept our mornings simple, and the walk to Jerusalem Bakery & Grill for dinner one night was a nice change from the usual chain-restaurant routine nearby.
