Hotel Indigo Atlanta Midtown (formerly the Cox-Carlton Hotel, originally The Carlton or The Carlton Apartments or Carlton Bachelor Apartments) is a historic building in midtown Atlanta, Georgia. Designed by Atlanta-based architectural firm Pringle and Smith in 1925, the brick building is located on Peachtree Street, across from the Fox Theatre. It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 2006, and, in 2022, is a member of Historic Hotels of America.
It is a 12-story, brick veneer building, built of steel-reinforced concrete, with details in limestone and terra-cotta. It is in the Georgian Revival style which was popular for hotels in the 1920s, and is a three-part commercial building, with ornamentation on the exterior of the first two floors and of the top two floors. "The Carlton" is inscribed in a terra cotta frieze separating the lower two floors from the brick facade above.
