“Good hotel with great location”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed February 20, 2013

This hotel is located on Wisconsin Avenue, midway between Bethesda and the Medical Center metro stops. Hence, it is within walking distance to the NIH, but also within walking distance to the many good restaurants in Bethesda. The hotel was pretty good, the rooms were large. My only complaint was the very poor water pressure in the shower. This is most irritating and would actually make me choose another hotel for future stays.

Thanks for your candid feedback. I am glad that the location worked out quite well for you. I would like to apologize for the water pressure issue you experienced during your stay; I must tell you however that this experience is very unusual for our property. We have since investigated and resolve the problem. Hopefully you will return on your next trip to the area and enjoy a problem free experience with us.

“Cozy hotel in a busy town”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 19, 2013

I have stayed there twice, and i'll be back. Like the breakfast buffet, its top notch, the sausage gravy is to die for! They have a nice wine selection, and good dinner selections as well. Van service to Bethesda and Medical Center metro stops, or a 10 minute walk from Bethesda stop.

“Great location and clean, comfy rooms!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 8, 2013

The Doubletree in Bethesda is a very convenient and comfortable hotel in the Bethesda area. I stayed here for 4 nights on business in NIH. It's minutes away from NIH by car (about 15mins on foot - nice morning walk on balmy mornings), and a stone's throw from restaurants in downtown bethesda. The breakfast spread was good (though not great) and the rooms were large, clean and very comfortable. Excellent location and stay, especially for the price (in the area). Service was okay but not fantastic - for one I didnt get my cookie upon check-in, and for the other the guy taking my orders for room service tried to chat me up (therefore 4 stars instead of 5). Overall great stay!

“Awesome!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 24, 2013

Super hotel. Very comfortable. Loved the cookie at check-in. Great value. Nice workout facility in the penthouse. Great views. Convenient to Metro. Staff was great. Restaurants are close by. Curious that several rooms have inaccessible balconies.
