Amtrak

I have never traveled on Amtrak but the station is in town.
Take a cab for about $28 to the hotel or a cab to the MARTA train at the Art Center Station, about 1 mile (walk if it is nice).
Take the train south ($1.75) until it ends at the Airport.
Go to the ground transportation area and catch the free Wellesley Inn Shuttle, leaves every 20 minutes.

By Plane

Airfare to Atlanta is very reasonable for this time of year. You are flying into Atlanta Hartsfield Jackson International Airport, Code: ATL.
Airtran and Delta are often the cheapest for flights to Atlanta.
