I don't expect luxurious accommodations when traveling on business, but a little honesty and clean bedding seems reasonable. Where to start...I believe this Westin hotel thinks itself much finer than it is. When I arrived, I was forced to use valet parking and was told by the attendant there were no others options...so imagine my surprise when a colleague drove... More

I've stayed here twice this year, and each time there were lots of small things that went wrong. The hotel heat/ac must be hard to control, because our conference room alternated between being hot and being freezing. Last time, I couldn't get my room to be cool. This time they were testing the fire alarms and decided to do this... More

We stayed here on a recent trip to Washington DC to attend the innurnment of our Father and Mother in Arlington National Cemetery. The staff at this hotel is very friendly and helped us out immensely When it became apparent that the US Postal Service had mishandled the shipping of our Mother's Urn.(Another whole story!) They were very helpful and... More

Good property. Very good sleep quality. Neat & clean. Only one issue - every time you call in for any dining service, the room service folks are confused or ill informed. Also, do expect exceptionally long holds to talk to room service.

Well, stayed here for 3 nights for a recent work trip to Arlington. This is a newish hotel, in downtown Arlington which itself all looks only about 5 years old :) Staff are friendly, facilities are good, and though the place is perhaps a bit pricey, I did feel I got value for money. Location is great - 3 mins... More

i have to say this hotel is in a great location and safe to walk around at night. it's conveniently located near a few restaurants with medium cost. if you decide to park on the property, it's a bit expensive (standard by most hotel rates today, but i feel is expensive), but parking on the weekend on a side street...

I came to the Westin as a customer from Priceline. A few friends and I were in town to run a half marathon. For starters--we got a great deal on the room so that was exciting for me. When we arrived they had us down for a King. The front desk attendant (Megan) gladly changed it to a double to... More

We travel a lot and, admittedly, we are hotel "snobs". Having said that, however, we know what it's like to stay in a truly nice hotel (i.e., another Starwood property in Los Angeles). While our 6-night stay at The Westin was pleasurable, it could have been nicer. The Good: very convenient to Metro and easy-to-get-to DC location, great views from... More

Wife and I had a great time here. Clean and spacious, rooms and pool were fantastic. A lack of a free breakfast, surcharge for internet and parking however can make this hotel not worth it. If you just need a clean place to stay in a great location surrounded by lots of food options out of the expensive national mall... More

We stayed here for 3 nights as a family (2 adults, 6yo, 3yo) in April. Given the location the hotel is geared towards the business traveller. The location is good with many restaurants in walking distance as well as Ballston Common and the metro station. We had a standard room with two doubles and the size was good enough to... More
