Hotels Near Petworth Spray Park in Washington D.C.

PROS: Stood here for the weekend with my partner. Aesthetically, the hotel is super artsy, fun, and pleasing to the eye. The decor and appearance screams chic, quirky, and metropolitan. From the lobby, adorned with all manners of interesting books, odd trinkets, and colorful sculptures, to the cute, cozy outdoor sitting space filled with pretty greenery, I could not stop raving about this hotel the entire trip. The style of the rooms could very much be described as a European “take” on the well-known Japanese “Pod” style hotels. The rooms were concise (not cramped) and had a sleek, modern, and minimalistic style of furniture (desk with chair, bench, vanity w/sink, bed-frame with built in storage space). Think “IKEA meets stylish, retro Japanese pod hotel”. If that makes sense. LOL. Plus everything in the room is controlled using an iPad which I think it pretty flipping cool. SMART TV in the room, as well, meaning unlimited access to YouTube, Netflix, or pretty much anything that can stream from your phone/device which is perfect after a long day exploring the city. (You can also change the color of the mood lighting in the room via the IPad which provided my boyfriend and I with hours of entertainment pretending we were post apocalyptic humans trapped in some green-tinted “Twilight Zone” style alien bunker) Also, if you prefer a hard mattress, you will find the hotel bed very comfortable. During our time here, we had easy access to a LOT of good food. There’s 2 restaurants inside the hotel as well as a really great Middle Eastern restaurant directly across the street. (I approve of their falafel and roasted sweet potatoes. Very good). There are so many cultural and ethnic restaurants in the immediate area for those who are adventurous eaters. There’s even a pretty nice Trader Joe’s around 4 blocks away for stocking the hotel room with healthy snacks and beverages (a must). Plus Union Market is pretty close to the hotel. I wouldn’t miss it if I were you. Big hall with lots of food vendors and even a little shopping. Even if you aren’t looking to eat and just want to kill a little time, it’s still interesting to walk around and see the cool and unique foods they sell. Soak up the little local color. Overall, it was a totally unique and memorable hotel experience that was totally worth the cost. Well done. LF

The trip was great and the stay at the hotel totally contributed to this. I would recommend the hotel and will also stay here again.

I came to the Holiday Inn Express with two of my friends and the assistant manager Ibrahim was very helpful when we had some trouble checking in and he was very helpful throughout the process of helping us. Very professional and my friend and I will definitely come back to this hotel because of him.

My husband and I arranged for a room block for many of our guests to stay at this hotel for our wedding. Leading up to the wedding and during the wedding weekend, the staff were very communicative and hospitable - helping us keep track of which guests were staying there, the distribution of welcome bags, and coordinating transportation to and from our wedding. Our guests had a great stay at the hotel and really appreciated the reasonable price and proximity to many restaurants and shops in Bethesda.

We usually stay at the one in Rosslyn, one Metro stop away. However, this time we wanted a two-bedroom suite and Rosslyn did not have availability. First, the rooms. This includes two bathrooms, so it could easily be shared by two couples. The living room is compact and includes a TV, as does each bedroom. The kitchen has everything except a toaster or an oven, so a toaster-oven would be great, but hazardous, I imagine. The dining room table is comfortable for 4-5 people. The bed is comfortable. The bathroom has a tub. The room was quiet. We have yet to try more of the common areas, such as pool, laundry and gym. Breakfast is standard with plenty of seating. The front desk staff is very helpful, with directions to the nearby pharmacy and food store. The area is very safe. We did not bring a car so cannot comment on the garage.

My family and I recently stayed at the Double Tree By Hilton-Washington DC/Crystal City. I paid a Military Family Rate (listed below) for 2 nights totaling $468.79, and I was expecting for the rate to include complimentary breakfast. Upon arriving to the hotel we were not given breakfast vouchers which was disappointing as I had my family with me and I could not accommodate them with that. In addition, I was trying to get information as to why we weren’t given vouchers and I was given ridiculous information. The customer service representatives at the front desk were not helpful at all. One female lied to me about the breakfast buffet only being $10.00 a person ( I spoke to this female 04-14-23 at around 8pm). I spoke to another female who could not even point to me where it says the rate does not include breakfast (04-15-23 at 7:30am). I believed the female that told me that buffet was $10.00 a person a day prior and I went ahead and took my family to the buffet. When arriving to the buffet we found out that it wasn’t not $10.00 a person, but rather $28.00 a person! For the amount we paid for two nights I would think a breakfast vouchers would be included. I believe it was highly disrespectful, especially for it being a MILITARY FAMILY rate. This was never explained to us or listed anywhere for this rate to not include breakfast so it was in our understanding breakfast would be included. I could not find it anywhere where breakfast is not included and neither the customer service representatives could not show me where it says that. . I am not sure if we were mistreated, discriminated against, or our military service is not something that is respected around here. And it being Washington DC I would think that military services are appreciated.

This is a great location within walking distance of several restaurants. It's important because the hotel restaurant is only open for dinner. All staff were helpful. Clayton Gino ensured everything went well. It was convenient to have an airport shuttle too.

The price of the hotel has an advantage, and it is basically clean and tidy. However, the air conditioner is too old and noisy all the time. In addition, the underground garage is being partially repaired, and the parking spaces are very limited. The parking spaces and aisles are very narrow, and the upper pipes in some places are too easy to scrape the roof. Friends who drive large cars should pay attention.

Facilities: Good, big room Sanitation: OK Environment: In the city center, 10 minutes walk from the White House, not far from anywhere Service: Nothing, breakfast is the same every day, no vegetables, no free mineral water, the price is OK

We stayed overnight and enjoyed this very recently renovated hotel. It's bright, spacious, and welcoming. The modern decor is a bit minimalist but the bed, room appointments, and bath were all first-rate. And the price is reasonable. One minus: the bathroom has a motion-activated light; if you get up during the night to use the bathroom, the light comes on with blinding blindness that is disorienting and can make it difficult to get back to sleep.
