“A decent Holiday Inn property”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed February 6, 2013 via mobile

Hotel is a standard Holiday Inn property. Rooms are decent, shuttle service is round the clock. Staff always pleasant at check in. Best rooms have nice walk in showers.
Hotel has a good restaurant. Evey fast food chain known to man is across the street and a Walmart is behind the hotel.

The hotel had the WORST PILLOWS IMAGINABLE.

The desk chairs are far to low to comfortably work on your laptop and the Internet service is spotty.

February 7, 2013
Thank you very much for your review, and the positive comments about the staff and restaurant. I'd also like to apologize, and address your concerns. First, you are not the first to tell us that our pillows are not as comfortable as they could be. Good news, Holiday Inn is upgrading the standard for pillows chain-wide, and we are in the process of replacing every pillow in our hotel. We will be among the first Holiday Inn Hotels to do so.
With regard to our Internet service, we have noticed the lack of speed recently; this is of course due to the demands of the constantly changing technology that our guests utilize. We have are in the process of upgrading our bandwidth to accommodate the current needs of our guests, and expect improvement shortly. I apologize for the problems you experienced with the desk chair; this is not a complaint we hear often, and would welcome the opportunity to address it the next time you visit. Again, thanks for taking the time to share your feedback.
Sincerely,
Bob Janis
General Manager

“PERFECTION !”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 27, 2013

I would highly recommend the Holiday Inn Chantilly - Dulles Expo for all your leisure and business stays in the VA and DC area. I have had wonderful experiences with their front desk staff and management especially Redwan and Najib. In addition, I have had many dealings with the sales staff and would highly recommend Mary for booking any long term stays, meetings, banquets, etc. She is just wonderful to do business with!!

I wish that the staff here could be cloned for other IHG properties throughout the US.

The rooms are always clean, updated and always quiet. You will love the "living room" with fireplace and comfortable couches and seating and the restaurant food is great with happy hour specials are always a great deal.

PS - I AM A PRIORITY CLUB PLATINUM MEMBER AND STAY APPROXIMATELY 190-200 NIGHTS PER YEAR AT VARIOUS IHG PROPERTIES THROUGHOUT THE UNITED STATES!

“Great for Families. Maybe not for some Business Travelers.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 17, 2012

I've stayed here frequently, most recently in October 2012.

Likes:
--------
-- Short walk to: Willard's BBQ (yum!), Walmart, Hooter's, almost any fast food you can name.
-- Outdoor pool with large patio area (in summer).
-- Rooms are clean and fresh.
-- All rooms have a refrigerator.
-- Heat/AC are from an internal system, similar to what you'd find in a small apartment. This is quieter than the typical "thru-the-wall" heat/AC that most hotels have.
-- Bathrooms have a large doorless shower-nook instead of a usual bathtub and shower curtain.
-- 24-hour shuttle to IAD. (Some other area hotel's don't offer shuttle between midnight and 5:00AM.)
-- If you are a Holiday Inn Priority Club member, you'll get one $7.00 coupon per room, per night for the hotel's restaurant (Bob O's). The coupon covers most/all the cost of a light breakfast.

Dislikes:
----------
-- Internet. More often than not, the hotel's internet connection totally unusable. Too slow, even for low-bandwidth tasks like reading email or news. For a business traveler, the hotel's internet is unacceptable. This is why I've stopped staying here.
-- Desk chairs. Most hotels have comfortable Aeron-like desk chairs. This hotel has old-style vinyl covered upholstered chairs that are (for me) uncomfortable.
-- Exercise room is barely adequate.
-- Breakfast has limited selection of healthy items.

Other
---------
-- The attached restaurant (Bob O's) is more of a bar than a restaurant. But, as said above, you can walk to other places. Some may prefer this; some may not.

“Great and helpful staff”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 31, 2012

What a great staff! I was attending work related training in the area from 14-19 October 2012 and tried to book this hotel, which was within walking distance to my training site and it was full. I called the hotel and ended up speaking with the Director of sales and marketing and she took the time to figure a way for me to stay there and also another coworker, saving us a big hassle dealing with traffic. The facility was centrally located to restaurants, shopping and anything else that you could think of. The rooms were great and the staff was always friendly and greeted you with a smile at every chance. I will stay here again, thank you Holiday Inn Chantilly Staff.

“Exceded My Expectations”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed October 23, 2012

My company uses this hotel for accommodating us employees. I am not a regular fan of the Holiday Inn chain. This hotel pleasantly surprised me. It was very clean. Very clean. At the risk of sounding like a neurotic clean freak (I don't believe that I am, I just stay in so many hotels...) I take a sanitary wipe and clean the bathroom light switch, counter, toilet seat, remote, and telephone before I settle in. Usually the wipes are disturbingly dirty. Not in this room. No hair on the bathroom floor. Really clean. And, the room was surprisingly nice. It was large and had a bathroom that you could share if you were not traveling alone. A separate toilet room. The bed was comfortable, the pillows were not. The staff was professional and friendly. I checked average for value...no idea of the cost of the room; work paid.
