Top Northern Virginia Hotel Reviews

Hyatt Place Herndon Dulles Airport East

10/10 Excellent

"Comfortable stay with convenient location:close to the airport."

Best Western Fairfax

8/10 Good

"Poor start: door keys did not work. So the staff made new keys and they did not work either - the door look was broken. So they assigned us a new room quickly. The room itself was clean, well decorated, nice bed, and very clean bathroom. Also had a refigerated which worked great. I never did get the TV to work and their were no instructions on how to make it work. The breakfast was great! They did a very nice job on a good assortment of food and had a very nice room with a great atmosphere to eat in. The staff running the breakfast should be commended and rewarded for a great job! The location was excellent if you were doing anyting in the Fairfax VA are. But I definitely did not like the irritating speed bumps in the parking lot. Overall, a nice stay with some minor exceptions as noted."
