I travel to the DC area and stay at this hotel at least 3 weeks a month. It is my "home away from home". The staff is exceptionally accomodating and extremely friendly. The shuttle drivers are fantastic. The proximity to shopping and restaurants is a plus as well. I recommend this hotel frequently.

Former Holiday Inn, still in great shape. Short walk to malls and convenient if you need to go as far east to Arlington or further west to Reston. Bar is comfortable but not many folks there. No free coffee Except in your room. A minute walk to one of the best steak restaurants , Flemings. Book via Priceline or hotwire, great rates

We paid $10 more for a quiet room on an upper floor. The hallway was very quiet, but we could hear laughing and talking through the adjoining door to the next room. Bring earplugs just in case. The staff is wonderful, the food is good, and the bar is fun. The mattress has a thin pillowtop, but the sheets and duvet are very soft. Furnishings are great for work or pleasure, although the rooms and windows are small. The bathroom is nice, but bring your own toilet paper if you are senstive to roughness. We enjoyed lap swimming in the large pool, with an atrium and tree-size living tropical plants. The pool was not very warm, but we got used to it. Lighting was very low, and the air temperature was cool (not much heat). The jacuzzi jets are so strong the water gets into your eyes and nose, but it's fun. You can feel safe because there is a lifeguard. The chaise lounges were well padded and comfortable. Parking is no problem. We shopped at Tyson's Corner Center across the street and thoroughly enjoyed that huge mall. There's a great area for kids near the movie theater with a train, large play area and eatery. We skipped the Tyson's Galleria with designer shops.

Stayed at this property for an on-site business meeting. The hotel is located in the dreadful quagmire of Tyson’s Corner across from the Galleria. About the only reasons to stay here would be business in the area, or possibly to shop. For DC touring, there are better situated properties. This is an older property and our room on the ground floor behind reception smelled vaguely musty, perhaps from proximity to the pool. (As Priority members, we were told we had been given an “upgraded” room, so I wonder what the basic room looked like.) Bed was too soft and the thermostat was wonky. Nonetheless, the room was spotlessly clean and the bathroom large. Bath amenities were not remotely luxurious so don’t expect L’Occitane here. Shuttle service was provided across the street to the mall and (I believe) to the metro station. We had room service twice (exceptionally good) and had the breakfast buffet twice (perfectly serviceable). They gym was airy, clean, and modern. Where this hotel truly excels, however, is in excellent service. The staff could not have been more warm, professional, or accommodating. It easily lifts the quality of this property from a 3 to a 4, and for that reason, we would not hesitate to stay again if business brought us to the area.
