In reseraching our DC vacation, the downtown hotels were out of our budget. We stayed at the Holiday Inn Express and were happy we did. My kids, age 4 and 8 loved the pool. The staff was friendly and everything in the hotel was NEW! It was very convenient for us to take the metro downtown every day. This saved... More

Renovations have turned around the look and feel of the property. The staff is always friendly and accommodating. The lobby, breakfast area, business center and fitness center are great looking with all new furnishings, flat screen tvs, computers and gym equipment. DirecTV in the room allowed me to feel right at home. Location was good because it put me between... More

Unfortunately, I went to Washington, DC, for business and was forced - due to limited hotel availability - to stay out in Springfield, Virginia, at the Holiday Inn Express. While I was under the impression that Capitol Hill and much of D.C. was only a short 15-20 minute ride on the subway system, it ended up taking me between 40... More

Previous reviews talked about problems with construction. That's finished. Our group didn't spend much time at the hotel -- just to sleep and get breakfast, and it was fine for that.

I was here on a business trip and was waiting in the lobby for a co worker who was an hour late and noticed a young lady who brought 3 men up to her room over the hour i was waiting. This is a sleezy hotel and I was so afraid for my safety that I I changed hotels that... More

Myself and some colleagues took 47 of our students to the innauguration this year. We had booked the Holdiay Inn Express through our tour company VERY far in advance.

...just returned from a 5 night stay at this inn. At time of booking, one of my colleagues asked about the 'construction.' He was told that the construction was on the lobby level only...WRONG!!...it appears that the construction is throughout the hotel. At times, it sounded like a war zone....drilling, banging and 'you name it.' The elevators, which are ancient... More

Stayed here with a friend for three nights in September. We chose this hotel because it had proximity to the Metro station for easy access to Washington, D.C. The hotel provides a free ride to and from the station. The service worked well going but was not as prompt on return trips. However, it was FREE! The hotel is in... More

We had a negative experience with this Holiday Inn Express. They were undergoing renovations-but didn't let us know. Didn't give us the King Bed we reserved 6 months in advance, but a room with 1 full bed! The room was very, very small and cramped. Neither of our phones worked. The bathroom door didn't shut. No wireless internet in the... More
