I stayed at the Hotel Sierra from June 4 through June 9, 2008.
Lobby/Check-in:
When I first arrived at the hotel, I thought it was wonderfully modern, and beautifully decorated with soothing spa colors. The reservation agents that greeted me were professional, thorough and helpful.
Room:
I stayed with 2 other relatives in a double bed studio suite (2 double beds, sofabed, and kitchen). The beds were extremely plush and comfortable. The couch which converted into a sofabed was more than adequate. There was a flat screen tv and iPod station clock radio. The kitchen had stainless steel fridge, coffee maker, microwave, stovetop, utensils, dishes, pans, wine bottle openers, strainers-- everything you could possibly need. We had no intentions on cooking, but it came in handy when we reheated restaurant leftovers. It had a 2-part bathroom: sink and closet outside, shower/tub and toilet inside.
Food:
They had a complimentary breakfast buffet each morning, which was the absolute best I've ever had. They had an omelet station, cereals, bagels, fruit, waffles, bacon, sausage, orange juice, coffee, tea, and spa water (you know, the pitcher of water filled with fruit for flavor!) I highly recommend that you not miss it - 6:30am to 9:30am.
In the evenings, you can get some light fare and wine at their lobby bar, which has comfortable chairs, couches and big screen televisions. They serve decent California wines at great prices. I suggest you try one of their pizza appetizers.
Business Center:
I forgot to take my laptop (free wireless access throughout the hotel), but their Business Center was more than adequate-- 4 Dell computer stations, 2 HP printers, all the office supplies you might need, and available 24/7.
This hotel was better than any Hyatt I've stayed in the past. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone wanting to stay in the Dulles airport/Sterling/Reston/Great Falls area.
