You don’t have to leave town to get away. In the heart of Downtown Lawrenceville, The Lawrence Hotel offers a thoughtfully designed stay where historic charm meets modern comfort. It’s an ideal destination for locals looking to elevate an ordinary night out, celebrate a special occasion or enjoy a staycation in Gwinnett County close to home.

The 120-room hotel is Gwinnett County’s first upscale, boutique, full-service hotel and part of Hilton’s Tapestry Collection. The Lawrence puts guest’s steps away from the Lawrenceville Arts Center and within easy walking distance of the shops, restaurants, entertainment and arts experiences that make Downtown Lawrenceville a favorite gathering place for the community.

But you don’t have to book a room to enjoy The Lawrence Hotel. Start with dinner at Bellfire, the hotel’s signature restaurant, where Southern roots meet Mediterranean influences with an ingredient-driven menu centered around the wood-fired grill. Led by Atlanta native Chef Dominic Simpson, the restaurant incorporates Georgia Grown™ and regional ingredients from purveyors including Ellijay Mushrooms, Comfort Farms, Plantation Quail and Anson Mills.

Then, head to Old Nick’s, named for a hard-working mule that hauled firefighting gear through Lawrenceville in the early 1900s. The bar offers craft cocktails, fine whiskey, wine and local beers from Lawrenceville’s Slow Pour Brewing Co. and Ironshield Brewing.

Whether you’re planning a date night, meeting friends for dinner or looking for the perfect excuse to turn an evening out into a mini staycation, The Lawrence makes it easy to make more of your time downtown.

The hotel is also designed for life’s biggest moments. With more than 6,000 square feet of flexible indoor and outdoor event space, The Lawrence offers a sophisticated setting for celebrations, weddings, meetings and gatherings of all kinds.

For Gwinnett locals, The Lawrence is more than just a place for out-of-town visitors to stay. It’s a new place to dine, gather, celebrate and experience something different right in your own backyard.
