May 28, 2015 // Franchising.com // MCLEAN, Va. – Hilton Worldwide and DoubleTree by Hilton today announced the opening of the DoubleTree by Hilton Largo – Washington D.C. The hotel opens following a complete transformation of the former Radisson hotel, and debuts a total redesign of the lobby, public and recreation areas, room upgrades, reconfigured meeting area, and revamped restaurant and bar concepts. The hotel is located just off the I-495 Beltway next to Woodmore Town Center and near the University of Maryland, and within easy access of Baltimore/Washington International Airport (26 miles), Washington National Airport (16 miles) and Washington Dulles International Airport (43 miles). Less than one mile away is FedEx Field – home of the Washington Redskins, and other nearby attractions are a quick drive or metro ride away, including the White House, Washington Monument, Lincoln Memorial, the Smithsonian museums and more. DoubleTree by Hilton Largo – Washington D.C. is owned by Frontier Development & Hospitality Group LLC and managed by Crescent Hotels & Resorts.

“As the only upscale, full-service hotel serving Largo, and offering convenient access to key businesses and tourist destinations in the Capital Region, DoubleTree by Hilton Largo – Washington D.C. is a tremendous addition to our rapidly-expanding global portfolio," said John Greenleaf, global head, DoubleTree by Hilton. “We are eager to welcome guests to our newest hotel, and deliver the award-winning service culture for which our brand is known globally, starting with the warm chocolate chip cookie welcome that is handed to each guest upon arrival.”

Set amid serene landscaping and a picturesque backdrop, the six-story DoubleTree by Hilton Largo – Washington D.C. debuts a modern style that includes a spacious, open lobby and contemporary design updates throughout the hotel’s public areas and guest rooms. Soft earth tones complement the design throughout the hotel, and set the mood for an inviting stay. The hotel’s 184 elegantly-appointed guest rooms feature modern updates and panoramic views of the Largo landscape, and each guest room is equipped with an in-room safe, microwave and mini refrigerator. Guests will also enjoy an assortment of gourmet in-room tea and coffee choices from The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf®, the refreshing Aroma Actives natural skin and body care line and an industry-recognized service culture built around the idea of CARE, which stands for Create a Rewarding Experience for guests, team members and the community.

A completely revamped food and beverage concept includes the new XC Bar and Bistro, an all-day dining restaurant located on the lobby level. The beautifully-designed restaurant features marble floors, a vibrant bar area and outdoor patio with a cozy fire pit. Mouth-watering signature dishes, such as Maryland-Style Crab Cakes and Roasted Salmon Filet, celebrate the region’s local flair. Room service is available for guests seeking the convenience of in-room dining, and those looking for a quick snack can stop by the 24-hour Pavilion Pantry Market any time of day.

With 2,500 square feet of flexible meeting space, the hotel is ideally-suited for conferences and receptions up to 175 people. As part of the property-wide renovation, the hotel’s event rooms – including an Executive Conference Room which can accommodate meetings for up to 40 people – have been updated and reconfigured into one cohesive meeting and event area located on one floor for the convenience of guests. For smaller group meetings, the hotel offers the Meetings Simplified by DoubleTree by Hilton package from $159 per person, which includes the meeting room, basic meeting WiFi, meeting room supplies including a flipchart, markers, extension and power cord, and all day non-alcoholic beverage service. Event catering is also available to enhance any function.
