The Westin is my favorite place to stay when in Ballston. Ballston is such a walkable area and The Westin is perfectly located. Rooms are clean, comfortable, and quiet, providing a restful night after a long day in the Arlington/DC area. Staff at The Westin were welcoming and helpful with any questions I had. Staying at The Westin made my trip to the area even better.

Hotel is nice but the front desk. I felt as nobody waiting in line while people cut the line they ask others to help. Completely ignored as I did not cut the line, interrupt or not a gold member.

Charles Smith Unhappy Stay

I was in Arlington for a Disabled Veterans Conference. When I got the key to my room, it was occupied by someone. I opened the door, and there was a naked gentleman in the bed. I apologized perversely and went back to the lobby. The front desk concierge apologized multiple times and offered me points. I have stayed at your hotel many times and enjoyed every stay. This was really dissapointing.
