I am a frequent traveler and have stayed at some of the finest hotels in the world. I was surprised to find better service at the Staybridge Suites in Chantilly than I have found at many five-star hotels. I won't go into all of the details, but let's just say I'm too young to rent a car, travel alone a lot and sometimes don't get where I am gong with everything I needed for my trip. I generally book hotels that are close to a shopping mall/center in case I have to quickly purchase something I inadvertently left at home. I also look for hotels that have excellent shuttle services and great amenities for business travelers in-house. Staybridge Suites fit all of my criteria. Where they exceeded my expectations was in customer service. The staff at Staybridge Chantilly is PHENOMENAL! Carl Brown, the manager, sets the tone for the entire staff and every staff member I met followed his lead, going out of their way to make sure my needs were met. Shuttle from the airport? Done. Showed up to check in with an expired credit card? Fixed. Had to quickly update and reprint paperwork for my business meeting? No problem. Meeting starts after check-out time, lasts until 4:30 and I need to make it to the airport for a 5:30 flight--and I have no car? I didn't have to call a taxi. I left my bag with Carl, he drove me to my meeting, picked me up when it was over and got me to the airport with time to spare. My room was huge and clean. My bed was comfortable. The bathroom was nice and roomy. There was not a single thing I can complain about. This is NOT your average hotel, and the staff was most definitely not your average hotel staff. I have never had a bad stay at any of the 5-7 Staybridge properties I have stayed in, but Staybridge Chantilly is extraordinary within its class. I will look for opportunities to stay there every time I am in the DC area now. Carl, his staff and the property they run are just that awesome!

Hotel is in a decent location with restaurants and other shopping for extended stays like Wal-Mart and Target. Theres a Starbucks near the Target only 2 stop lights away.

They provide meals Tuesday - Thursday at night and include 2 beers on tap. The food is decent for buffet style. Breakfasts are also decent and rotate with different styles of eggs, sausage, bacon, fruits and other normal breakfast foods.

I had a king suite with the separate bedroom. This was a work trip for 3 weeks. They do a light clean of the rooms every weekday and full clean once a week. The room I had had plenty of space. There is wired and wireless internet. I was actually able to stream from Hulu and Netflix with no problems. This was great, especially for those who work or are here for a long time and get tired of normal network TV.

Theres a medium size refrigerator, dishwasher and microwave. Also a 2 eye stovetop.

The staff were all very nice and accomidating. This place is nice enough that there are actually some long time residents (I guess if you can afford to retire somewhere its as good of a place as any).

There is also a laundry room with free washers and dryers, just bring your own detergent.

One of the best modestly priced hotel we've ever stayed in. Nicely finished room with kitchenette, sitting area, wi-fi and workspace. Very good morning breakfast and small pantry available with snacks in lobby, Convenient location very close to Dulles and the Air and Space museum. Definitely will stay again.

Another very pleasant stay at the Staybridge Suites in Chantilly. We were in town again to volunteer at an event at the Smithsonian Air & Space Museum Udvar-Hazy Center which is nearby. Very comfortable room. Available choice of pillows. Windows can open. Small but adequate kitchen although the ice maker in the fridge made only a few cubes even hours after I turned it on. Free internet although a little slow at times. Nice breakfast in the AM, pleasant dining area. Very responsive staff. Small shop near the lobby where you can buy toiletries, snacks and drinks if you don't feel like going to the store. This year I did make use of both the fitness room and the laundry room (free W/D! -- but you do need to bring detergent). Small fitness room has a couple of treadmills (the one I used was sturdy), an elliptical, a stationary bike, and a weight machine plus a small set of free weights and an exercise ball. Water and towels available. There does appear to be a small outdoor pond with a walking/running trail around it but I didn't want to run at night outdoors alone even though the area appears to be pretty safe. Had some issues with the key not working at times at one of the side doors. No trouble at the room door, though. There is a Wal-Mart and also a Target nearby. Also several dining options in the area although perhaps not within easy walking distance for most people. We look forward to staying here again next year.
