This place is an unbelievably good deal The rooms are HUGE (be sure to ask for a tower room) It’s a bit of a drive from DC, but we plan on staying here any time we come back

This hotel offers an experience you typically don’t get unless you’re spending an additional $100-200 per night Be sure to walk to the town square in Rockville where you’ll find families with kids playing in the water park when the weather is warm Great hotel for families

The staff is very unfriendly we said hello and attempted to be friendly after making 8 hour trip with a baby But, They did not say hello or welcomed to the hotel

“keys, wifi, elevator to the left” is all they said we asked for a change to do laundry, and the staff refused There was no coffee in the morning, and 2 staff were talking to each other while guests were waiting for coffee Location and building are fine, but service is terrible

Mike Larrick

OK but quite expensive for the quality Rooms are clean and large, but not a lot to write home about No bath, only basic cable

They will charge you $20 for parking, which seems scammy They tell you they’ll validate parking but don’t mention they’ll charge you for it For a hotel on the outskirts of beltway suburbia, you’d think they would include that with the room I didn’t take a boat in Also they will send you spam emails and texts to sign up for their club

I had a 2 night stay here last week and I was greeted by Mia who was a very friendly and informative employee She even offered to look up restaurants/closest wine stores nearby for me when I inquired I really appreciated the kindness upon arriving

My room was very clean and and modern and the shades made the room dark for sleeping The only issue I had were some very noisy neighbors around midnight which lasted until around 1:30, which sounded like they were moving furniture around for 45 minutes and banging on the walls, but that is not the hotel’s fault I enjoyed the breakfast and always available coffee/tea in the lobby as well I was going into DC and the Greenbelt Metro station was a 10 minute drive from the hotel, which was very convenient also I look forward to staying here again the future

Kayle Mabry

I always travel for work and always stay here when I’m in town It’s one of the cleanest and best 3 star hotels I’ve stayed in It’s always extremely comfortable and is a good location and everything is up to date and new

Only reason I gave it 4 out of 5 stars is the noise at night if you’re on the highway side of the building I’m in my 20s and never have issues sleeping even with noise but even this was a little much for me Other than that I would recommend this hotel everytime

Andrew K

Staff was excellent! I’m sorry I can’t give 5 stars on this alone and separate it from the Hotels location! A crowd of “youths” in and around the lobby as I’m checking in after midnight And on the street in and around the Hotel there was rambunctious activity and even fighting that had local police intervention! Great stuff when you’re trying to sleep And not just for a minute or two, this went on for hours! I expect more from a Hilton!And oh, the water dripping out of the shower, basically made it useless was the kicker! Unacceptable! Otherwise the room was spotless and nice, very clean! Again, staff was wonderful and I felt sorry for them having to deal with the trouble there

Nature Duran-Smith

We really enjoyed our stay here! The location was GREAT We also appreciated the free parking Every one of the front desk staff was very very nice

I was pleasantly surprised at our room Much bigger than what I was anticipating! The beds were super comfy and I loved the channels on the TV My room also had a full-sized fridge, a 2 burner stove, and a dishwasher! There was an AC unit that kept the room cold, but I turned it off and used the ceiling fan instead, which was perfect! The shower door wasn’t sliding properly, but the shower was nice anyways We took advantage of the complimentary breakfast which satisfied our breakfast hunger We also took advantage of the pool! It wasn’t crowded at all and enjoyed the jacuzzi The only problem we encountered about 3 times was that our key would stop working suddenly Being on the 6th floor, it was a little annoying to keep having to take the elevator down to get a new key Other than that, my stay was comfortable and amazing and would recommend this hotel to anyone!

Worst stay I’ve ever had at a Homewood Suites Room 362 Arrived around 630pm

1 Arrived with dinner Digital key failed to work even though the app said it was ready The room door was broken and ajar when we arrived So we walked into the room without the need for a key I have never seen this at any hotel I have no idea how can a room be cleaned and inspected and someone misses that the door won’t close This is a huge security issue and calls into question whether rooms are being inspected2 Reported to the front desk and a maintenance man came to the room and after multiple trips resolved the issue by replacing the door plate that holds the door shut3 We could not see any trash cans in the suite After looking in the kitchen cabinet under the sink we found two We placed one in the bathroom and kept the other in the kitchen4 There were no bag inserts for the ice bucket After contacting the front desk we were told housekeeping would bring them by, but they never showed up4b Didn’t matter much because there was no ice machine on our floor See attached When we reported this to the front desk they acted as if this was new information and proceeded to give me directions to the ice machine5 The kitchen faucet was so loose that the entire thing lifted from the granite surface when turning it on6 The bedroom ac unit rattled very loud as if the unit was coming out of the wall We had to switch on the fan instead which was not optimal7 The hot water at the bathroom sink took a while to warm up The sink is likely clogged as it took several minutes for the water to drain8 The closet doors were open, broken, and could not be closedAs a long-time Hilton customer, I was willing to work this out because things happen, so the following morning around 5am, I requested a full or partial refund with the front desk and was told, only a Manger could honor such a request and they won’t be in until 9amI asked to be called, and was not, so around 910am I returned to the front desk and explained the room’s issues to a yet another person, she disappeared to a back office for a few minutes then returned and told me the manager doesn’t come in on Saturdays So the run-around was in playAt this point, I had interacted with 3 different employees and gotten very little serviceBy far, my biggest issue is that management refused to engage and resolve the issue This is the second time that I have stayed at a Hilton property where management leveraged its staff to avoid doing what a manager should do since the employees were not empowered toAnd so, I am left to tell others about the experienceI would not stay at this location again I would not recommend this location

My wheelchair bound son and I booked a room through our insurance for a ten day visit because our apt flooded In the fifteen minutes it took from the trip being booked and us arriving…They gave away our room for the night but tried to offer us a room the following day They said they could “try” to clean another room but that room didn’t have running water

I learned that our room was given away because as I was waiting in the lobby to check in, the hotel rep was on the phone with our insurance telling her that she gave away the room for the night despite it being available at the time of booking because someone else walked in needing a room before usBasically if you are homeless and need an insurance paid stay, these people won’t care and will give away your fully paid roomETA: the company responded but no mention of a bathroom was in my original complaint because we never stayed here… good ole auto response I guess

This was very pleasant place to stay The breakfast spread was extremely impressive The staff was very nice and my favorite part was that the rooms were definitely clean

The bad thing is vending machines take quarters only along with laundry Reception desk has quarters Elevator smelled like smoke but truthfully none of those mattered to me because our room was SPOTLESS Sheets were clean and comforter were comfy Pillows too

Ben Maddox

Platinum Tier customer service encompassing a very enjoyable experience The employees here are friendly, courteous, and professional! Breakfast is phenomenal! Beautiful park on site is wonderfully filled with fresh air, green grass, and a lovely pavilion for an outdoor meditation spot! I also highly recommend walking over to Minerva for some of the best comfort food I’ve had in years, take your card from the front desk and you will have 10% off your meal! I am very pleased with my visit and am looking forward very much to my return stay shortly!

Terry Guers

Stayed one Saturday night The price was $70 less expensive than a similar type national brand hotel nearby The room was fine and the AC was adjustable and responsive which was important since the outside temp was 92

The morning breakfast provided a nice selection and the breakfast room was good sized Free parking Only negative was an additional, small charge not listed in the reservation because the room had a safe To enter the highway when leaving the hotel, you must turn right There is a gas station conveniently located right beside the hotel

Hampus Engstroem

Decent hotel The lobby is really flashy, unfortunately the rooms are quite dated, and mine had a weird smell The shower had some mildew on the floor, and of course the room had an old carpet on the floor as most hotels do

At least the rooms were bigThe on site restaurant had a decent selection of food and beverages, I had the salmon for dinner and it was pretty good I also had breakfast in the restaurant and they did not have the buffet set up, I ordered parfait with granola and fruit and it was good! Main gripe was that they charged for coffee and juice, and quite a lot, so the whole ticket got quite expensive for a really simple breakfast The executive lounge was closed too which was a bit if a bummerOverall it was a decent stay, definitely stayed in worse hotels

Matt Winn

Our stay at the hotel was extremely disappointing On the first night, there was continuous noise until 1am Part of that noise was the hotel staff loudly opening and closing doors up and down our hallway and running a vacuum cleaner which they also carelessly slammed into the door/wall outside our room

When we asked the staff member with vacuum to stop, he refused Part of the noise was rowdy activity in the hallway, which the staff did nothing about despite multiple requests Even later in the week, young people were running around and yelling in the hallways because there is no atmosphere of civility or control by the staff It was very disruptiveOur stay was also disappointing because basic amenities were broken, unavailable, or held at cost For example, the convenient location next to the metro was spoiled because upon return, the door back into the hotel was locked and the card key access was not operational We asked to use a microwave and were told that it would be a $10 extra charge – really? At the price we were spending – which did not even include any room cleaning – it is insulting to me that you’d try to milk even more money out of us for something that could have been set up and finished in 5 minutesConsidering the hotel itself was responsible for these disappointing factors in our stay, I regret paying for the room and don’t think it will be a good idea to return, even though I plan to return to Rockville many times in the future

Teresa Buchanan

This is a conference hotel but it’s also perfect for business travelers Things I loved: super fast elevator, simple interior parking, Starbucks, great bartender and kind front desk people, good work space in the room (huge desk chair), fabulous pillows, every store you need within walking distance, close to DC, AND across the street from a metro stop and regular sized grocery store (Safeway!) My FAVORITE thing? It was So

Quiet!!! Slept great!

Due to a project, which got extended over and over again, i spent quite a few months in total here this year Reception, Bar, Security, Housekeeping staff etc were all so amazing

Felt very welcomed here and the overall competence as well as the motivation of the staff to make your stay special was totally outstandingReally gonna miss most of them and hope to see them again!Absolutely recommended from my sideSafe travels everyone!🙏🏼

Rion McKeithen

I visited this location for business travel and was exceptionally pleased with my experience Upon arrival, I received a small welcome gift [as a member of the rewards program], and had a beautiful lake facing room I was pleased that it was quiet and all service requests were tended to with care

During my stay I enjoyed the fitness facility, restaurant, and adjacent attractions at Rio It was very nice to have the option to go to the movie theatre or walk around the lake right next to the front doorEven though there were many highlights of this trip, the best part was undoubtedly the service provided by Carla [front desk] She went above and beyond in helping me with all of my questions and become acquainted with the area I even had a few requests that were not part of the regular offerings and she helped craft and deliver innovative solutions It was a refreshing relief to receive such excellent customer service that would be more commonly associated with the St RegisOverall I strongly recommend this hotel for any business travelers and also believe it would be suitable for families as it quite safe and orderly There are also adjacent attractions for children including a carousel, large arcade and multiple high quality family restaurants

Sue Bai

My daughter and I stayed here last week during the independence day weekend The hotel was quiet, clean and the staff are very friendly and welcoming The location was ideal: we walked over to AMC for a movie-night right across the hotel! The breakfast food was so well prepared I left a note to the food service manager about how much we appreciated the wonderfully prepared food, even though it was a slow weekend with very few customers at the hotel

I am impressed by the quality of the service and highly recommend this hotel!

Whiting Wicker

Carpets were dirty The twin beds took up most of the room There was the sofa bed, but it had no sheets – we had to order them twice before they came

Worst of all, the free breakfast (well, we probably paid for it out of the $27500 one night stay) I was hoping they would have a nice selection for one’s personal taste – especially for the room rate The eggs were cold hard boiled, no fruit, there was milk, cereal, and some packaged waffles Juice too Forget trying to find any hot scrambled eggs or omelettes – they didn’t offer any McDonald’s would have been better We were the only ones wearing masks in the crowded room that had no social distancing during this latest COVID outbreak – and the dirty looks we got from patrons – I don’t think it was because we are interracial – but you never know The looks were like “Why are you here? – “Do you really belong?” – “How can you afford this place?”

Jasmin Leu

Big and clean room with fridge, microwave and TVBreakfast was delicious good choice Oat milk and fresh fruits were a highlight

Negative is that there is to much single use plastic involved Instead use real plates and mugs and glasses Would be much more environmentaly conciousIf this changes 5 stars are appropriate

Michael Sadowsky

My interactions with the staff were excellent When I asked for sheets for the pullout they had them right awayThis location’s breakfast has not fully recovered from COVID yet

There was breakfast, but more limited than I would normally expect from a Springhill, and lots of individual packages, and less hot food optionsThis was the smallest Springhill room I have ever stayed in We had a King with a pullout, and when the couch was pulled out the door to the room could not be fully opened I’m not sure how that isn’t a fire hazard

Been coming here since the pandemic started to visit my family The service has improved and the staff are just amazing! Rooms are a bit small and they need new paintings especially a Upgraded TV Can’t play my Apple movies through their old tv

Breakfast is always great My favorite supervisor Sena at the reception desk is one of the most professional, friendly person I’ve ever met You can’t miss her, she has beautiful island curls and a flower always on hair as a signature The lobby is always clean and well kept, the fitness center though small has a great selection

Lauren Bullard

Had to stay local for work, due to a recent snow/ice storm Very friendly and professional staff, especially for check in Room was very clean and perfectly put together

I’m the type of person who likes to look under the beds and in the cracks of things for bugs and I’m happy to report no bugs or signs of bugs whatsoever Room was super comfy and they had complementary breakfast in the morning Would be happy to stay there again if needed

Noelia Gonzales

Without realizing I booked a single bed room when it was 3 of us Without ANY hassle , cannot stress the ANY enough!!! The representative proceed to change our rooms , handed us keys and we were beyond gratefulI’ve been to other places where they weren’t so helpful and I’m very appreciative of their willingness to help and go the extra mile

Will be staying here again, it’s a great location, quiet and safe not to mention their pancake machine which fascinated my children Thank you for the awesome stay !

Beds comfortable, tv fine, very clean and fresh No problems with noise or anything else Of special note- my allery free room had no carpet and for the first hotel stay ever I didn’t feel sick Hallelujah!!Front desk very accommodating and offered to give us a late checkout which was great!Parking free and easy, all staff very pleasant, the price discounted for party members, the entire experience was perfect! Thank you Marriott- a home run!

Lisa-Gaye Wellesley Morgan

This was a horrible 6 days I am still wondering how on earth they are affiliated with the Marriott Some of the front desk staff are extremely rude and considering we are the customers, it leaves much to wonder

They attempted to charge my card over $700 for a cancelled reservation which caused my bank to suspect fraud and closed the card I had to call and open a complaint to have it resolved The room was filthy and I took pictures almost as if it wasn’t cleaned for weeks The AC didn’t work and I had to ask for maintenance The air filter clearly needed to be changed because of all the dust that came from itThe vent in the bathroom was also dusty and make note this is with daily housekeeping So there website clearly lied about how they clean the rooms I did enjoy the M Club and the restaurant though limited in menu wasn’t too bad I would NEVER recommend this hotel The CEO needs to do a surprise visit to see the conditions of the rooms and how the staff worksAt all cost avoid this hotel, you pay so much money for lackadaisical service, bad attitudes, dirty rooms etc Marriott needs to clearly take a close look at this hotel

Sarah Collins Levine

Deceptive communication about discounted room rates Unclean, smelly roomWe visited for a family graduation and were offered a group rate, arranged by the event planner

There was no limit communicated on the number of days we could receive the discounted rate The event dates published by Marriott on the special booking link offered a 5 day date range When we checked out we were charge full price for 2 of our 4 nights The hotel has been unwilling to refund the extra room charge, falsely stating after the fact that there was a 2-day limit, although this limit was not communicated at any time during our booking process and not imposed on other guests in our family and we have provided proof of this The hotel employees have since ignored our emails, no reply It seems like there has been a change of staff and they are unable/unwilling to reply or correct this matterThe first room we were checked into was filthy- dirt and hair on every surface, brown sticky spots all over the bathroom walls and ceiling as if a previous guest exploded a can of soda and the bathroom was not cleaned The room was warm and smelled bad, like plastic and fish The windows do not open and the air conditioner was not working properly so it was not possible to air out the room We asked to be moved to another room, which was clean, but this was not a great experience overallThe property is not in a bustling downtown neighborhood, its on an expressway, so I’m not sure why they charge $20 a night for parking

A very nice hotel with a large indoor pool, great dining facility, and comfortable suites The location of Bethesda Embassy Suites makes it extremely convenient for going to DC, northern Virginia, and Maryland locationsI especially appreciated the friendly and courteous staff, who started my day with a cheerful smile and a wonderful breakfast

They continued this as they greeted my return and supported my requests A Manager’s reception in the early evening helped ease the stress of the day or provided a change to help one wind downThe experience I had was shared by the hundreds of guests that were there at the same time I was I saw the staff interact with everyone in the same manner and you know the had equally comfortable and clean roomsSo come and stay at one of the DC area’s best hotels You’ll enjoy it, I’m certain

sharon fritts

We stayed at Embassy suites because my husband had to have facial reconstruction We had to stay 5 nights The location was great, close to the medical facility

The room was comfortable Berta, at the front desk, was very kind and helpful She was exceptional at her job, all of the staff seemed very good at whatever job they did The breakfast was wonderful, the breakfast team was AMAZING We are very pleased with our recent stay

Javier Mejia

Positives: Big and comfortable rooms, enough set of towels The breakfast offered is pretty good There is a good food variety and the products offer are of high quality

The room also had a good viewNegatives: The first night I had to kill a spider, and I didn’t had soap for my hands I also had to tell them twice to send a housekeeper to do room service

A Straightforward ReviewContext:-I booked 2 rooms for 5 nights-I called the manager of the property for clarification about earlier reviews-I am a Diamond Member with HiltonExperience:-I arrived at 4:28 and one room was not ready and was told that the 3p Check-in is not a guarantee-I was given an accessible room since there was no ETA of my room being ready-The AC in the room did not cool the room till a full 24 hours-Both rooms had an odor that never left throughout the entire stay One room smelled of fish and the other one of stale air

I had housekeeping and the front desk make repeated attempts to fix the situation-the shower did not drain-there was a towel shortage therefore for our last nights stay neither room had enough towel supplies for us to all bathe properly (that was after asking the front desk for assistance)-the dogs above us barked for hours without skipping a beat This happened for 3 days whenever the owner would leave ( I did ask for front desk assistance)-elevator looked to have had spots of animal urine-the AC in the hallway was not working-neighbors screaming throughout the night in the room that did not have the dogs-the Internet worked for 3 of the 5 days We had to use our phones to tether to other devicesStaff:-The staff was kind and ready to help-The staff sympathized with concerns but had no help for any of the above situations-I called the Diamond Service desk and asked for a possible transfer to another property and they hung up on me after a 55 minute phone callConclusion:I have lived in foreign countries and understand that these complaints are minimal in the scope of humanity, however if you are looking for an experience… I believe this is not the hotel experience you are looking for I came to this location for a vacation for a birthday getaway and unfortunately I do regret this decision If you are a family staying over a couple of nights, I do believe the staff is very kind and will give you a good experience, but the property itself I would rate closer to a Best Western Plus experience and not a Hilton experience

We got a 2 queen bed and 1 sleeper sofa room for 2 adults and 4 kids We weren’t planning on spending much time in our room so it was perfect for us Upon check in the room was clean and well prepared

However, no room cleaning services were provided the 3 days we were there We had no where to place dirty towels, no replenishing of soaps or coffee/tea When we went to the front desk to request more towels and ask about their room cleaning services, they said they only clean the rooms on the 5th day of someone being in the room? How is that sanitary? They did give us a few more towels but that was it We had a complaint about the room next to us blaring music and essentially throwing a party rather late in the evening We called the front desk and they said they’d handle it, but nothing was resolved until we called the room directly and requested they turn down their music Then, at no fault of their own the fire alarms went off in the building but there was no explanation provided for this At checkout, they didn’t even ask how our stay was or seek out feedback They checked to make sure our room was paid for and then literally turned away and began talking to other staff thereSome things we did like were the fact that we didn’t have to pay for the 4 kids The breakfast that is provided was good There appeared to be a lot of things available to guests there but we didn’t get to check them out

I was a little skeptical especially after reading some of the negative reviews but I am glad I went ahead and stayed here anyways The front desk reception for the PM shift was great I forgot to get her name but she was so friendly and so helpful I felt very welcomed

Room was clean and breakfast selection was a little minimal but I certainly didn’t expect a full breakfast spread Would definitely stay here again in my next trip to Gaithersburg!

On our recent trip from Australia we stayed here for one night Unfortunately our room was very unclean Upon discovering pubic hairs in the bathroom floor and soap dispenser we were in shock

After driving 10+ hours and arriving late, we didn’t want to go elsewhere So we pulled back the sheets in both beds only to be further shocked by more hair We moved rooms but then further disappointed by no mention or apology for what we found Won’t be going Marriott ever again

I’m allergic to feathers, feather free room is listed in my profile when I checked in I asked at the front desk if the room was feather free? I was rudely told I “I saw it on your profile” I put my bags in the room and when I returned late that evening decided I better check the pillows When I did I discovered feather pillows

This seems to be a systemic problem at Marriott properties I have addressed it through their customer service, heard nothing At one hotel I had an allergic reaction causing me to take Benadryl to stop the reaction which left me tired for my only day in a national park an incident report was filled out and I was assured i would hear from a manager I didn’t and after a week I wrote a review then I finally heard from someone I also filled out an incident report and was told that I would hear from a manager before I checked out Nothing, it’s been a month Since then I always check before I use the pillows Problems happen it’s how you handle them that counts!!

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Marriott, even though it was only for one night The room was modern, spacious, and you can smell the cleaning products when we walked in which is a breath of fresh air The restaurant/bar at the hotel is GOOD

I definitely recommend, the drinks and food exceeded our expectations Our waiter was also very nice!The only slight problem I had was that the washcloth in the bathroom was wet when we arrived, I’m not sure why or what it was used for but what if we had arrived later in the day and it was dry? We would have used a potentially dirty washcloth Also, you’re paying to park in a parking lot behind the building – not a garage

the inside was redone recently and is very nice The outside is a bit of a deterrent If I was driving by I would not go in

But once in the door the lobby, room, and amenities are really nice The service at the Coffee Bar was perfect The woman that served us was Awesome and not to mention we left at 11pm and returned at 8am and she was back!!!! What dedication

I feel for the most part that Courtyard in itself just kind of rides off the Marriott name and this one is no exceptionPRO’s – The hotel main floor is very clean, has ample lounge spots and overall very inviting The inside fireplace is very nice and welcoming

The little store off from the front desk is super convenient (also ridiculously expensive) The rooms have been updated(ish) with comfortable beds, new sofas, carpet yet out of place looking furniture with an early 90s persona Room service was great and they replenish with more than enough towelsCONS – The Bistro in the morning is the worst Bistro of all the Marriotts I’ve been to in the last ten years and I’ve been to ALOT The Bistro “opens” at 6:30a through the week and my rewards include free breakfast everyday Would’ve been awesome if someone was actually there at 6:30 and ready to serve Nope 6:40? Nope! Half the time closer to 7am and the poor guy from the front desk has to come over there and do the Bistro employees job BECAUSE THEY DONT SHOW UP ON TIME, CONSISTENTLY!! The food is also way overpriced for what you get, I mean…over $4 for a small bottle of water? Is this hotel THAT broke? Front desk guy needs a raise as he was doing everyone’s job most mornings, by himself The floor hallways are very long and creepy as in new carpet yet odd looking wood doors out of the 80s The keyless cards don’t work half of the time The toilet takes five flushes just to get a piece of toilet paper to actually go down Water pressure is horrible and takes ten minutes to try and get all the soap off you in the shower Undersized room TVs and only two USB ports in the whole room and those two are on top of the alarm clock The outside of the hotel is cringe and unwelcoming The grounds need major focus and look overall unkempt Killed multiple spiders in the room throughout my stay The pillows are way to flat and unsupportive Took all five of them together just to make one good one that kept my neck straight One washer and one dryer for the entire hotel that look like the first whirlpools ever invented and did not wash nor dry good at all Stairwell carpets are stained and you aren’t sure if you’re climbing stairs in a state prison or a hospitalOverall, the lobby felt more like a Marriott while everything else felt like a nice Motel 6 If you’re passing through for the night and traveling alone than this will suffice but don’t expect much because the hotel just doesn’t offer much and the staff is just kinda “there” I will most definitely not be staying with this hotel again and will not book it for any of my employees going forward

Hampton Inn was one of my go-to places for a quick one night stay on a road trip Last May, I stayed at a couple of them in Maine and was not disappointed What I like best about them is that they are clean and the bed is usually pretty comfortable

This specific one has some issues I think that they don’t use all cotton sheets or something because they don’t feel good against the skin The mattress wasn’t awful but not good The pool area smelled strongly of mold I was down there last night because I needed to relax my back and do some water therapy exercises after a long drive Because I have a mold allergy, I’m still having symptoms in my chestWhile I’d recommend Hampton Inn as a chain for folks on a road trip, I wouldn’t recommend this one Keep driving

Super nice front desk staff! They were courteous, friendly, and very helpful The room was nice There were a couple of small things that need to be repaired

The location: the hotel is located in a business park environment So, the view is of roads or the parking lot There are shops about a half mile away They have an indoor pool and hot tub Breakfast is pretty basic fare There is a bar in the restaurant So, nothing fancy But, the staff is superb!

Jason Lee

In terms of hospitality and comfort, this stay at the Hilton Garden Inn Rockville-Gaithersburg hotel was by far one of the most best and memorable experiences Joyce and April both helped our two families check in quickly and easily allowing us to make the most of our short stay Not only that, they also took the time to get to know us and found out that it was our 4 year olds birthday and made it extra special by giving him a really memorable present

It’s these little things that make us keep coming back to Hilton and if you’re ever looking for a comfortable, friendly stay, look no further!

Courtenay Marshall

The hotel is clean and well maintained but a little tired and could use some upgrading It’s located in a convenient and nice neighborhood The restaurant staff was very friendly and helpful

The hotel still is not cleaning daily which is fine but I called 4 times and visited the front desk in person asking to get the in-room coffee replenished including waiting up late last night for someone that would be “right up” I’m typing this in need of coffee desperately I’m a Hilton Diamond member and besides a 25 cent bottle of water at checkin there has been no acknowledgment It’s just about impossible to get responses If you just need a room and don’t care about indifferent “service” then it’s fine to stay here Don’t forget to bring your own Kuerig coffee pods if you are staying more than one night Tried to check out on the app but that wasn’t working so went to the front desk and the girl at front desk was busy on a FaceTime call with her friend and couldn’t be bothered to talk and said put the key in the jar Indifferent “service” by the hotel staff from beginning to the end
