“Will stay here again.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 May 2012 NEW via mobile

Wonderful visit. All the staff we met were polite and helpful. Mo on the front desk was friendly and so helpful. He suggested a walk to Georgetown which was great. Loved looking at the shops and houses. We look forward to a return visit soon.

“A wedding stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 May 2012

Very nice hotel and courteous Staff. Stayed two nights for a Wedding in Leesburg. Will stay again. Mo at the front desk was the best! Thanks for your help Mo! Arlington is the cleanest city I have ever seen. No pool, but you can walk across the bridge to George Town.

“Outstanding staff - great place to stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 May 2012

I was totally impressed by ever staff person at Le Meridien. We arrived late - near midnight - but someone was there to tell us where and how to park, the folks at reception were friendly and kind, they found maps and seemed to really care that we enjoyed our stay. And later, when I couldn't find my rental car, several of the folks in the parking garage helped me track it down.

On top of that - the room was great, and the location was perfect - a nice walk across the bridge to Georgetown!

“Relaxed, modern, understated luxury”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 May 2012

This was my second experience staying with the Le Meridien chain. My first was a few years ago at their hotel in San Francisco. The Arlington hotel fits well into the feel of the brand, and I'd definitely stay at this or another Le Meridien location in the future.

We arrived Friday evening, and found it easy to find the hotel, park, and get to our room. The hotel has a street level lobby, where you enter an elevator to go up about four floors to where the main public areas of the hotel are, including the check-in/front desk. All of the areas of the hotel are decorated in modern, muted earth tones, with splashes of vivid color throughout. It feels very sleek and upscale, let inviting and relaxing. I think the decor at their hotels is perfect for adults without children or business travelers.

The staff were friendly and helpful, giving very informed answers about a few questions we had. Our room was a few few floors up, and had a view of a narrow, inaccessible, outdoor terrace. I liked that the windows were large and ran the width of the room. It was a cozy sized room, and had contemporary furnishings and lamps. The playful pattern of the carpet was a nice compliment to the muted tones of the walls, trim, and bedding. I noticed several people complained the 32" tv wasn't large enough, but I think it's fine for the size of the room. I'm not the kind of person to watch tv much in a hotel room anyway. The bathroom was also pleasing, with subway tile in the shower and marble flooring. I particularly liked the mirror over the sink which was backlit. These are details you find when you move up to a 4-star hotel, and make it feel special.

The location is excellent, as it's a 10-15 minute walk (a very nice walk!) across the Key Bridge to Georgetown. The Rosslyn Metro stop is just 2-3 minutes from the front door of the hotel too. There isn't really any reason to move the car while you're staying here.

“Perfect Hotel, Perfect Location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 May 2012

This hotel was WONDERFUL! It's steps from the [fairly clean] METRO subway so there’s VERY easy access to DC. It felt way more expensive than what we paid for and the amenities were great. Mohammad, the gentleman that worked the desk, was a great help and checked us in right away with a friendly and accommodating demeanor. The concierge on the bottom floor (when we first arrived) was very helpful and funny. The one at night, not so much. There are drug stores and eateries within walking distance and if you smashed your face against our huge room window you could see the Washington Monument which was super cool for my school age traveling companion. The lobby / bar area is gorgeous too with a HUGE wood burning fire place & great atmosphere. This is a great alternative to the overpriced DC area hotels with wonderful, amazing staff.

Room Tip: The hotel itself is actually on, i believe the 5th floor, and the rooms are located above that floor...
