Top hotels in Crystal City
DoubleTree by Hilton Washington DC - Crystal City
Very nice place to stay a little shocking about the deposit for each night and the $40 breakfast which was not included in the room and the daily parking cost, but it was a very nice place to stay very comfortable. Nice people.

AC Hotel by Marriott Arlington National Landing
I had to leave early for an emergency, Hotels.com would not give me a credit for the night I didn't stay. With all the years I used your site figured you would at least give me a credit for the night if not a refund. moving forward will look to use the Hotel directly and not hotels.com

Hamilton Hotel Washington DC
1) I got a room just near the ventilation system, which was quite loud, 2) The mini bar had price list, but in addition, the hotel charge additional $1 for each purchase, which was stated in a. small font. 1$ is not a big deal, but I hate when a hotel plays hide the prices in small font... so cheap ...
