Embassy Suites by Hilton Washington DC Chevy Chase Pavilion

Embassy Suites by Hilton Washington DC Chevy Chase Pavilion

10/10 Excellent
"This was a great place to stay if you want to be able to take the subway downtown to see the sites. The building connected to the station. Breakfast was always good as well as the evening reception. Clean comfortable rooms. Staff was excellent . We’ll be staying again when in town. Only drawback was the constant present of little kids in the pool for swimming lessons. Couldn’t use the pool at all. Overall great stay!"
