Hilton Garden Inn Arlington-Shirlington

Hotel was fine. Clean. Good location. Decent gym with good treadmills. Issue was the front desk staff. When checking in, I asked about parking. Was told I needed to pay $27 and self park on the fourth floor of the garage. I pulled up a website reflecting the parking is free in Shirlington garages after 5 PM and on weekends. (We were staying overnight on a Friday night.). I also pointed out that the second floor of the garage has signs prohibiting overnight parking, but the third floor has no such signs. The person at the front desk told me that my car would be towed if I parked overnight without paying and having a hotel parking permit. He was very unfriendly. I paid the $27. However, he was sweetness and light, compared to the woman at the front desk when checking out the following morning. She was talking to a fellow employee at the time and ignored me. I was simply turning in my keys and planning to ask for a receipt. She seemed very annoyed to have to interact with me.

Welcoming staff

I’m always very clean staff. It’s amazing.

The worst part about this experience was the parking. A shared one floor on a parking structure. We had to one night park in a spot where we could've been towed due to not enough spots on that one floor. We would've been liable for the hotels inability to make enough parking spots accessible for their guests. Paid parking at that. The breakfast as well was questionable. Buffet style is better in my opinion. More options in that breakfast strategy. The vouchers are not worth it. As they only cover one entree and not a group meal. It's not their fault but my opinion on the strategy.

Very convenient location with many restaurants around. Shuttle is a plus! Breakfast was amazing, breakfast attendant Renato has a great customer service. Always smiling.

Great town with lots of food options.

Recently updated, clean, comfortable, convenient to restaurants, shopping, etc. Walkable to anything needed, including Harris Teeter grocery store. Great experience. Minor issue, seemed understaffed for breakfast on Sunday.

Very clean facility. The workout space was very well equipped. Morning coffee was on target!

Superb

Location and shuttle service. Coffee option in room was not as expected. Coffee tea combo?

The staff member, Robert, was extremely pleasant and very courteous! He helped us store our electric bikes overnight inside the luggage room! Our view was very unpleasant.

My only complaints were the taste of the coffee and the parking. But being in Shirlington Village, it was just a quick walk over to Peet’s. Lots of restaurants nearby. I spent a lot of time outside the hotel. The desk clerks were nice and very helpful.

Superb

Great

I was surprised cost of breakfast wasnt included in my stay. Breakfast should be complimentary

Superb

Our son lives in the area, but only has a 1 bedroom apt. We have tried many different hotel in DC and the area. This one just fits us. The surrounding area is filled with a nice variety of restaurants, bars, etc…even a movie theater, all in walking distance. This was our 4th stay and the staff is always so helpful.

Bed not comfortable otherwise it serves its purpose

If you’re catching a show at the amazing Signature Theatre in Shirlington, don’t worry about driving home late. Just grab a room here. It’s a minute walk and you’ll find a spotless property with the most comfortable beds.

Dining was non existent other Hilton gardens we have stayed at in the dc/arlington area were much better. Seemed like they were wrapping up construction upgrades. Breakfast was always a buffet and no bar for drinks and food.
