Perfectly off I-95 south making it easy to get back on the high way Very quiet and very clean After an incredibly long day it was nice to be checked in quickly and efficiently even for the late hour I was doing so

All the staff were incredibly kind and helpful The room was spotless and the bed was as amazing as the omelette bar downstairs that was available during the complimentary breakfast I will always recommend staying here

diane eliezer

This is the nicest Embassy Suites I’ve stayed in, bar none Impeccably clean, large bathrooms, comfortable beds, excellent front desk The free hot breakfast features an omelet bar, and the free drinks from 5:30 – 7:30 each evening is a welcome tradition

We ate in the restaurant and enjoyed a great French Dip sandwich with sirloin and a Caesar Salad with about 8 oz of hotgrilled salmon, plus sides and drinks for under $4500 I would recommend this hotel to everybody The only “downsides” are (1) it’s incredibly convenient to DC /all tourist areas BUT there is nothing close by except a Wendy’s (2) the lighting in the rooms is absolutely awful, just plain DARK and (3) $10 per night to park Other than that, I’ll continue to make this my go-to hotel in VA/DC

Angelo Cruz

Quite honestly one of the best hotel experiences I’ve ever had! From booking online to arriving, I was treated with respect and as a true guest In a post-covered world where we’re all putting the pieces back together, it is great to see this establishment really taking care of people and making them feel at home I have to really applaud Sabrina and Alex at the front desk

Nothing beats a stay at the Hilton and Embassy knocks that right out of the park!

We were Leary staying here because of other negative reviews but they proved to be wrong The front desk staff was pleasant upon arrival, check in was easy and the lobby was clean and inviting Most importantly the room was very clean and comfy and the water pressure in the bathroom was strong

Complimentary coffee in the morning is always appreciated The elevators have a security measure that You need your room key to activate from the lobby I appreciate that because you don’t have unwanted visitors roaming around the hotel A bonus to this hotel is FREE parking! I didn’t give it 5 stars because the rooms didn’t have microwaves I would visit this establishment again

Kaci Cobb

Here now Hotel is nice Staff is friendly

Good location The only issue we really have is there’s no microwave in the room so we can’t really heat up anything for the kids They like to eat half their dinner and bring the rest for later or breakfast Kind of disappointing we can’t do that So just a suggestion would be to add a microwave to the rooms

Kayla Minguez

Happy we were able to check in early as we just moved to the area and had been driving cross-country Desk staff were kind and helpful Room was fine but looked a bit outdated and there was a weird stain on the bathroom wallpaper by the sink that kind of made me think of Forensic Files

The AC also never really seemed to cool the room down It was fine for an overnight but for a Hilton I’d say good not great

The overall service at the property exceeded my expectations Eric, is an asset to this property and understands what it takes to leave a lasting impression on a guest Eric paid attention to detail and anticipated my needs by providing extra blankets, pillows, and a roll away bed in the suite prior to my arrival

I arrived with 4 exhausted teenage boys who traveled and competed in a basketball championship Check In was fast and there was no wait to be checked in Everything was prepared for us when we arrived, the room was large and clean, the roll Away bed was turned down and prepared for our late arrival the beds were both comfortable The property was spotless, Inside and out with plenty of parking the area felt very safe, and secure The buffet style Breakfast was great, offering healthy and quick options for families on the go, or a chef to prepare the breakfast of your choice, which is complimentary Eric went out of his way multiple times to ensure We had a perfect stay and he is a great example of what exceptional hospitality looks like

Belinda Tribble

Great stay for business trip Loved the idea of having drink tickets This was a big plus with my group

Nice way to come to our home away from home after a long day of working Eric’s big smile and sweet welcome back was nice as well We will be back in a few weeks and looking forward to another good nights sleep in the comfortable bed Also, room temp was kept nice and cold :} thank you, see ya soon > Tribble

cherry baby

The first Embassy Suites I’ve visited that wasn’t actually a suite It was a single, medium size, room It had a large TV and entertainment center that the used to slightly partition it, but still a single room

Bed was comfortable and bathroom was clean and well stocked The drink tickets were great Parking was not free, but when my uber dropped me off, the arms were up And it looked like an ample size parking lot I didn’t eat breakfast, but based on other reviews it’s tasty

We stayed at this hotel for my birthday weekend and was very happy with the stay Captain managed the front desk during my stay, and he was extremely friendly and helpful! He even went above and beyond to make my birthday night special The other front desk staff was just as nice and helpful

I had no complaints about my room that was a standard size, everything worked as it should, and most importantly clean We had a drink at the bar/restaurant and the bar’s hostess was great toowe enjoyed her! I am very picky and boujee about my hotel and would return to this hotel It is in a great location surrounded by a mall, restaurants, and a quick drive to the DC area! Thank you for assisting with making my birthday a success!

Zachariah Mathew

Beautiful hotel, clean and good rooms We stayed here for a family reunion The beds are comfortable, the pillows are good, the a/c works well with no issues

The bathroom is a decent size Bath soaps and shampoos are decentBut the best thing about this hotel is the staff Alina was very helpful She tried her best to accommodate our family in spite of a huge wedding group staying here at the same time Captain was also great!! He is friendly and charming When you come across hotel staff who welcome you with friendly smiles and want to help you have a great stay, that means a lot to a customerThank you so much, Alina and Captain!!!!

Charles Massey

A pleasant surprise! I’m in town with my two sons to celebrate my birthday and my company’s first podcast covering the Commanders While walking down the hallway with my boys, my youngest son mention that it’s my birthday while walking past an employee I return from FedEx Field to a pleasant surprise

Daria DeSimone

I was taking the Autotrain and stayed here 10 years ago and loved the hotel! Now I’m back overnight again after all this time and the place is amazing! They definitely remodeled the place and the rooms were so pretty and very clean! They also have a free breakfast for the guests which was amazing! Thank you Marie and Parker at the front desk who were so very nice and professional and had a smile on their faces! 5 STARS!

Reese Hathaway

Very close to the AutoTrain Within walking distance of Amazon Fresh The room itself was very nice and clean

The breakfast was good and gave my party enough time to get breakfast later in the morning My only complaint is my room smelled musty our entire stay The AC was also set on 75 when we arrived Other than that the hotel was great Checkout is at 11 o’clock If you’re going on the auto train you can pick up dinner nearby then get your car checked in at 12:30

Kimberley Sherman

Convenient location for catching the auto train We’ve stayed here before & were happy The staff was very friendly especially Lisa, front desk, Westley, Chief Engineer, & Mary, GM

They all tried to fix the issues we had with our room They’re trying to renovate & update as they get the materials Some rooms need it more than others, like ours with the musty ac unit The cleaning staff needs to be more thorough also I gave the 3 stars because the staff honestly tried to help us and are working on making the property better

I would not recommend this spa They have major staffing issues and we have had multiple issues trying to deal with resolving issues from 11/20 through now from a 12/26 visit

They did not provide the described services and they bungled the resolution as well Don’t waste your time or money There are better options in the DC Metro area Do not recommend The hotel stay was mostly fine

R. B.M.

This is my go-to hotel when visiting DC/McLean, Virginia

It is beautiful, and the service is fantastic! This location has luckily been able to uphold high standards and customer service from check-in to dining, concierge services, you name it! I’ve had amazing experiences speaking to agents on the phone, who are actually on location, check-in services, the wonderful greeter who is always happy to direct me in the right direction, especially while under construction! I hope the Ritz maintains this level of enthusiasm as well as standard for cleanliness… I also look forward to having breakfast at Entyse, the bistro Mona has been serving us for years and we absolutely love catching up with the staff! I would definitely give them 10 stars if possible!

Two to three months ago, we requested 15 or so rooms for a weekend and were told to contact them at the time of the stay in order to ensure that the rooms were connected and in the same part of the hotel Only for us to be told day of that that would not be feasibleCheck-in was painful – we had to stay with our guests to help with the check-in process – and even then it took 1

5 hours for nearly every room to get checked in The staff seemed confused about who had/had not checked in and relied on a spreadsheet THAT WE CREATED in order to keep them organized For a “new/top class” hotel, their technology literacy could really use improvementTwo weeks later, we are dealing with incorrect charges on cards, higher than promised rates, confusion over guests’ names and their room charges, and staff who continue to pass us around and follow up with high-level details instead of taking the time to investigate what went wrong on their end We were considering this space for a wedding venue, but the utter frustration we have faced since has quickly ruled this place outThe hotel directs guests to a $10 / night overnight parking garage that takes forever to get out of The signage to get in and out of this hotel is unclear and there do not appear to be any plans to change it The hotel clearly relies on business travelers and knows itFinally, as of 6/16/22, we were offered the equivalent of one night free as compensation for our troubles We gave them 30 nights worth of business Will never come back nor recommend this place to anyone – wedding, regular stay, anything This has turned me off the Hyatt brand for personal use

Noel James

The hotel was nothing short of excellent The hospitality was amazing I stayed here for my birthday weekend and the front desk hostess, Catherine was amazing! She paid attention to every detail of my request and made sure that my needs were catered for

I had the King room with a view of the city And it was just gorgeous The breakfast at the hotel restaurant was equally up to par and scrumptious!It’s a gorgeous property that I would definitely revisit anytime I’m in Tysons

Tim O’Neill

The room was fine but it is a ‘pet friendly’ hotel which apparently means you can bring your dog to stay with you, leave it in the room and go out and party all night while it sits in the room alone howling Unbelievable! Good luck sleepingWho knows when the adjoining restaurant opens on a Sunday morning? Nearest place open at 7am for breakfast was Silver Diner a mile away

It was fantastic!

I have absolutely nothing negative to say about this hotel This hotel “understood the assignment” when it came to true customer service Booked this hotel for my senior parents visiting from southern VA

Front desk, friendly, polite and smiled every – single – day They immediately, with no problems, upgraded my parents room to a studio because my dad was weary of staying on a floor above 3 The boxed breakfasts were nutritious, delicious and high in protein The hotel was spotless and smelled nice and fresh All hand sanitizer stations were filled and usable No hassle parking From the complementary bedroom slippers, to the bottled water, just and all around EXCEPTIONAL experience Great location My parents were very pleased and LOVED the comfortable bed They also felt very safe in the area I HIGHLY recommend this hotel, especially for seniors

Michael Gracey

I stayed for two nights (Friday/Saturday) to extend some work travel while taking advantage of a discount offered by the hotel Staff handled check-in courteously and expeditiously Complimentary parking was located in garage across from hotel (would have been nice to know on email confirmations)

My room happened to be in a corner on the second floor The room was predictably clean I appreciated a couple of small things such as complimentary bottled water, Malin&Goetz bath amenities, and a couple of books for reading if I was interested (I was not but appreciated the gesture) The bed and sofa both had firmer feels than other hotels at which I have stayed (Both were acceptable though and maybe understandable given their newness with the renovation) The shower design somehow encourages water to pool rather than drain, so I hope something can be done maintenance wise as they renovate Road noise is noticeable until midnight, so I would request a room at a higher floor and facing away from Lee HighwayPrices at first glance do not seem terribly unreasonable without the discount (hopefully they will stay reasonable after the renovations finish later this year) All in all the location proves a great reason to stay for a night or two and eat through Mosaic and surrounding restaurants within walking distance and movie watching at the Angelika One could feel good supporting a boutique hotel brand staying here

Jessica Kim

Excellent location and most importantly excellent hospitality The location was fantastic and accommodated our late check in request The room was in good condition and left a very nice gift basket for us to enjoy my promotion

This made this hotel outstanding I would love to visit this location again after their remodeling is complete Thank you so much for a wonderful experience

What a terrible shame I had every intention of leaving a five star review for this hotel until my experience this morning with the general manager First let me start with the positive

The weekend crew is absolutely amazing Everyone is friendly and pleasant I had moved to Homewood after a horrendous stay at another hotel I was so relieved to finally rest in a spacious, clean hotel with exceptional service The front desk even helped to accommodate my aroma sensitivities The room also comes with membership to Golds Gym which was a great perk which I sadly was unable to use, but is a great option The front desk team even checked in the second day to see how everything was and it was fantastic The breakfast on the weekend was also really terrific with sweet potato fries along with the usual eggs and two choices of meat Also, there were numerous choices of breads, bagels, muffins, etc and a variety of fruit I didn’t actually eat much and looked forward to Monday Sadly, none of this was availableThe breakfast had one meat, only bagels and only “delicious” apples, which I abhor I found this odd, but ok…I will accept it Then, as I’m trying to relax with my rather limited breakfast, the general manager came over and started sweeping the floor near me…sweeping dust into the air and near my flip-flopped feet and naked legs When I commented that this was inappropriate, he simply said, “I’m sorry you were offended, but I needed to clean”1) At the time I came to breakfast, there was only one of fourteen tables occupied In other words, the place was almost empty There was ample time to clean2) Breakfast was closing in 20 minutes He could have waited until after I left3) I didn’t make the mess There was no reason to penalize me and force me to shower again because someone else made a mess at my feetI would normally keep this complaint internal and simply talk to management about the fact that this was unpleasant, but…Is this a major issue? No However, it shows an attitude of management putting their own needs to get their perceived job done above those of their customers, forgetting that their job is to service customers

Jeffry Feliz

Hilton hotels have been my go to for years The service is always good Not my most recent stay at this hotel

Probably one of my worst experiences at a hotelArrived at the hotel, “checked in” after a bit at the front desk, only to find out that I was mistakenly given access to a room with other tenants already occupying it We proceeded to exit the room and went back down to inform the front desk of what occurred Front Desk worked quickly to give me the keys to a new room thankfullyNext, we arrived at the hotel room and proceeded to get in the shower only to find out that the towels were soiled yellow by what appeared to be pee 2 out of the 4 towels in the hotel room were that way Same thing happened with the towels we got on Friday, at which point we decided to cut our trip short by one dayI called the Diamond Desk to see if I could check out a day early I was informed that since this stay was booked with my Hilton Points that I would lose them if we left early as they “Couldn’t” refund them I decided that staying another night was not worth it, and left even though it meant losing more than 70k points Left the hotel this morning without looking backIf you are thinking of becoming a Diamond Member, please don’t Its honestly not worth it based on this experience

Dillon Vautrin

This was possibly the best service I have ever experienced during a hotel stay The hotel staff really made my family feel welcome The front desk, manager and kitchen staff were all terrific

The pool and hot tub were clean The room was clean When a lot of other chains seem to be going downhill lately, our stay in Falls Church at the Hilton was refreshing I highly recommend staying here Thanks!

Edward Conboy

We stayed over the weekend at this Hotel Very nice

very clean and rates were very fair and affordableThe beds was comfortable, the bathroom was clean and there was plenty of towels The staff was very friendly and helpful with me and my family The only con that I can think of is I still haven’t received back my $6000 room deposit back yet and it was supposed to be credited back to my account upon check out

Paul Marquardt

Spent a week here recently The service was very good The bar service was great and food was quick and easy to order

The concierge lounge was very nice and I took full advantage of it for breakfast and late night snacks The only thing I would have changed would be adding the concierge lounge key to the digital key I ended up having to get a key card for that access separately It was an easy fix though and the front desk personnel were very helpful

Ryan Hurford

Titanium member This is a fantastic hotel with open spaces and clean rooms The staff are inviting and pleasant

They do have an open concierge lounge on the top floor It had hot eggs and bacon with the typical abbreviated breakfast items this morning Oatmeal, yogurt, juices, etc No charcuterie plate, but has enough to grab and go The bed was stellar and the shower/tub was spotless and well cared forHotel is quiet no matter which room you get, so that’s a big plus if you fly in late and need to sleep asap before the early rise, or if you have kiddos I definitely recommend!

Over priced during the week, medium priced on weekends Staff is attentive & polite, rooms very comfortable and clean with great selection of pillows NO microwaves in any of the rooms so you must go down to the lobby which makes it very inconvenient as you’ve got to down dressed which takes completely relaxing out of the question

Breakfast has always been quick, hot and ready but ends by 9:30am – so much for sleeping in when on vacation I’ve frequented this hotel while on medical trips to specialty physicians in DC & visiting with family so needless to say I’ve enjoyed my stays

There is a fridge and coffee maker in the room Breakfast has always been quick, hot and ready but ends by 9:30amThe hot water in the sink takes 8 plus minutes to get hot The shower head cannot be moved whatsoever The elevator carpet needs to be cleaned as it smells like the seaweed on a beach or worse

I totally agree with the guy who posted this “It was rather disappointing, it was not as good as the ratings said, and it is also 19 miles from the nearest metro station, not 1 mile The breakfast was poor, but it was in walking distance of many great restaurants

The beds were comfy, but the room was tiny and so was the bathroom The water pressure was fair but it took about 5-6 minutes to get hot and sometimes it would change temperatures in the middle of the shower unprompted Overall it was a fair hotel but I wouldn’t suggest it to my friends” I would also like to add that you gym area needs to be renovated with fresh new colors to freshen up up the room and attract younger demographics It felt like going back in time to the 1990

Nice clean hotel, quiet Beds were comfortable They didn’t provide any housekeeping service during our stay even after we asked for it

We traipsed down to the lobby to get fresh towels and more toilet paper They had coffee in the lobby each morning but don’t sleep in if you want any Breakfast is extra Decent parking Convenient to stores and shops across the street Staff was friendly

I just got married there on July 15th, and we couldn’t of asked for a better venue for our entire wedding! Leandra and her staff were absolutely amazing with coordinating our wedding but also very accommodating to all of our wedding guests! We were very impressed with everything and everyone here at the Hilton! Rooms are newly renovated, garden patio beautiful for our outdoor ceremony, food was delicious and staff was amazing!!! Highly recommend if you are looking for a venue to hold your next event, especially a wedding!

Nice hotel Clean, quiet, and plenty of parking Right next door to the Fairfax County Police Department’s Fair Oaks station

Across the street is a Harris Teeter and a couple nice restaurants It wasn’t busy during my stay so there were very few guests They’re still undergoing the Covid scam, so the pool is closed Staff is friendly Check in / out was easy

Nice rooms! The staff are friendly and professional — quite kind, in fact, and were good listeners/seemed to care/treated me with respect Staying here was a wonderful experience The weekend got a bit busy with people in the breakfast area, but that’s how it goes on weekends at places, of course

No real complaints from me Good breakfast choices At my request, I was moved to another room too (I did not like my first neighbors) That’s above and beyond what is expected, in my opinion Very happy to have stayed here It was a bit of solace from an otherwise hectic lifeThe location is convenient for walking too 7-11, Burger King, and an Asian grocery store (among other places) are within walking distance of the hotel!

Phillip Funtulis

The staff at this Fairfax location is very accommodating and friendly Julio, for instance, is very hospitable, remembers former visitors, and treats them with courtesy and kindness He also goes out of his way to accommodate requests

The same can be said for other employees I’ve metThis Hampton Inn also peaceful for being in such a convenient location, near ample amenities and main roads Moreover, they have comfortable beds, and their soaps and other resources are very good If you forget a toothbrush or toothpaste, they have you covered Their continental breakfast isn’t bad either I enjoyed my stay here, and if I need to stay in a hotel in Fairfax, this Hampton Inn is my first choice

Diamond Chavis

The hotel was lovely and the renovations look wonderful Staff during my stay were very helpful and kind I did confuse myself a bit during check in (I didn’t know adding cards doing digital check in didn’t change the reservation card) and I went down to the lobby desk to change the cards

When I saw my check out receipt with the wrong card, the gentleman downstairs at the front desk switched the cards and gave me an updated receipt with the correct information I thought the charge would be cleared off (this was Wednesday) It did yesterday (Thursday 05/26) then I was charged completely on my original card today (Friday 05/27) with my other card still pending When I called today to get this cleared up, I felt the woman I talked to was not listening to my concerns and was dismissive She kept talking over me when I was asking questions when allI wanted to know was how did they manage to charge one card knowing I asked for the other one to be charged instead So now I’m waiting for five to seven business days for my money to come back I liked everything about my stay, but this kind of soured my experienceEdit: Money is back After some reflection, changed from three to four stars Stay was still really great regardless of the few mishaps had

Hotel is decent but they have the absolute worst bed’s of any hotel I’ve slept in the last 10 years Options are full size or king If you’re coming with a family forget about it

In addition the beds are extremely uncomfortable Would not recommend based on the beds alone I’ve stayed in multiple hotels in this area including embassy suites, comfort inn, Marriot, etc and while the appearance of this hotel is great the comfort inn offers a better night sleep

Maria Hussion

Well I wanted to stay here, as we travel through town with our kids I called to make a reservation , when I asked to have an adjoining room so we could have our kids in their own beds we were told they couldn’t guarantee that the rooms would be adjoined I explained the situation and how we needed to know our children would be in a connecting room I was pretty much told “sorry, not sorry

” I was not calling the day of check-in either, I was calling weeks before we wanted to check-in

Young Kim

We are here for just one night as a staycation for Memorial Day weekend using our free Marriott night Our 2 double room is quite spacious with a separate living space Very clean

The main reason we chose this place was for the indoor heated pool We definitely chose the WRONG weekend to come here I guess there’re many guests here for a soccer tournament; the pool was super small with minimum 8-13 middle school boys jumping, splashing, being really rowdy I complained to the front desk and they were very responsive and came down to remedy the situation twice This was not the hotels fault so it’s not going to affect my rating and to be fair it’s not those kids’ fault either but it was just tough for my 3 and 4 yr olds to enjoy relaxing pool time overall it’s going to be a good stay

The restaurant has a great menu and the sushi chefs were superb The pool was very nice, and the gym had everything a person needs The hotel beds were very comfortable The staff that worked at the hotel marketplace were always so nice and friendly I highly recommend this hotel

Jasmine Hanonu

This is a beautiful hotel with amazing views and staff Price is very competitive The staff were very kind and welcoming

I only stayed one night, I checked in around 5pm and left at 8 the next morning, so because of my time restraints I chose not to go directly to staff to see if they could make things right The bathroom was not properly cleaned The sink had hair from a previous shave, and I had a towel that didn’t seem clean either We had a chaise in the room, but it had some stains on it I am hoping this was just a fluke, because I would love to stay again They also charge $17 for breakfast, but we left early to grab breakfast elsewhere If it were for the disappointment with cleanliness,this would have been an easy 5 star review

Tali Norby

It’s such a beautiful hotel with wonderful amenities, however, I have never had such terrible customer service When I first checked in, the receptionist was actually wonderful Checked in, went to my room, went to bed

I was then woken up at 5:30 am to the phone ringing I didn’t answer It rang a second time Still just waking up so I didn’t answer it in time Went back to bed Someone then started knocking on my door, yelling in my room saying “have you checked in?” Mind you, it is 5:30 am and I checked in the previous day at 4 pm for two nights I answer the door and the guy writes my name down and says I wasn’t reserved? So he took my name and said he’ll take care of it I go back to bed and my phone rings AGAIN and I answer it and no one is on the other end Then it rings YET AGAIN and I answer angrily, and they say “do you have a reservation?” To which I said my name and said I will head to the lobby I hang up and they called…again I didn’t answer and went straight to the front desk The receptionist then said “the last receptionist didn’t check you on all the way but I found your reservation and figured it out” and proceeded to give me a voucher for free breakfast For only that morning That I ultimately missed because I was woken up at 5:30 am and it took me a couple hours to fall back asleep after that No other explanation, and no other way to make it right in my eyes So so disappointed
