The photo looks like the building is modern steel and class...that's the building behind the Holiday Inn. The photo of the exercise room makes it look like more than it is...four aging machines. The internet is scandalous. Free, but no bandwidth. I had a family emergency overseas and couldn't use skype because the internet is so puny. The windows "open"...but... More

My family stayed at the Holiday Inn at Ballston, Arlington VA in June of 2013. Property was clean and well maintained. Room was clean, and there were no odors. Front desk staff friendly & courteous. Liked security feature, that no one could use the elevators up to guest floors without a room key. Motel was also just three blocks from... More

A three night business stay. The positive: service is very good. Room request was accommodated (not facing Fairfax), shuttle to NSF and Metro station etc. Small store with decent prices. Lobby bar is nice. Needs improvement: the rooms are old, small bathroom and tired wallpaper and carpet. Like many Holiday Inn properties. The pool was ice cold, no way you... More

Wonderful experience at this quiet, clean and well maintained Holiday Inn. Very friendly staff. Excellent location. Purchased through Priceline and hope that we are lucky enough to get next time we bid in this area! Only complaint was the irons, but if we had taken the time to ask I am sure the pleasant staff would have replaced our iron... More

The reception staff were wonderful and very helpful. The rooms were clean and modern. Breakfast Buffett was good and reasonably priced. The hotel is about a 5 minute walk from the Ballston metro station. There's a few good restaurants and bars in the area as well. I felt parking was a little pricey at $14/day for being so far away...

This is my favorite hotel when I have to attend meetings at the National Science Foundation. The price is reasonable and includes free internet and a good desk workspace (with a comfortable desk chair). The room is clean and comfortable and includes a mini-fridge and a Keurig coffee maker with a nice assortment of coffee and tea. It's not fancy... More

I have stayed at this hotel a few times for business and find it comfortable. The rooms are a bit dated but I can see they are in the process of updating the public areas. I hope the rooms will follow. The staff are always helpful. I have used the shuttle service a lot and the drivers (Mohamed and his... More

Stayed at this hotel because it was close to a professional training course I was taking. All hotels in the DC area are high so I won't comment on the rate even though for DC this one was reasonable. The staff was great but the hotel is dated. Water pressure was weak and lost hot water for a few moments.... More

My experience at this Holiday Inn was made exemplary by the services of Ahmed at the front desk and Charlie in the hotel restaurant. Ahmed was pleasant, polite, professional, knowledgeable and helpful. The Holiday Inn has a true asset in this employee. Charlie was also extremely helpful and accommodating.
