DoubleTree by Hilton Washington DC - Crystal City

Announces Completion of Multi-Million Dollar Renovation Fresh Look has Guests and Customers Smiling

June 16, 2015 // Franchising.com // WASHINGTON, D.C. - Guests visiting the Washington, D.C. area will want to consider the recently renovated DoubleTree by Hilton Washington DC-Crystal City in Arlington, Virginia. The hotel is in the final phase of a $25 million dollar renovation of the 631-room property located in this urban neighborhood in the southeastern corner of Arlington County, Virginia, south of downtown Washington, D.C. The transformation included the hotel’s guestrooms, entry, two-story lobby and bar to reflect DoubleTree by Hilton’s emphasis on guest comfort and relaxation. In addition, the hotel upgraded the Wi-Fi system in all guest rooms to increase speed and connectivity for today’s connected traveler.

“We are excited to complete this comprehensive renovation, which allows DoubleTree by Hilton Crystal City to deliver a best-in-class hotel experience to our customers," said Dori Familiant, general manager. "These major enhancements enable our hotel to offer new and returning guests an elevated experience when visiting our nation’s capital.

All DoubleTree by Hilton Washington DC-Crystal City’s 631 guestrooms and suites have been redesigned and feature soothing colors to accent the feeling of comfort. The finished product offers a luxurious DoubleTree by Hilton Sweet Dreams bed, 32” LCD television, Cuisinart single-cup coffeemaker, a work desk with ergonomic chair, an upgraded Wi-Fi system and a digital panel that allows guests to connect and charge several digital devices at once. Cozy lighting and contemporary original artwork complete the look. The renovated guest bathrooms feature Kohler fixtures, granite countertops and deluxe showerheads.

In addition to guestrooms, the hotel completed a lobby renovation created to provide a social area for guests to relax, entertain or just hang out and people watch. Part of the goal for the redesigned space was to create more areas where guests can socialize or relax more privately.
For example, the main bar – which was previously surrounded by low walls – was opened up and became the focal point of the main lobby area. Along the main window wall, high-back lounge chairs and sectional couches are clustered between partial-height millwork ‘TV Pods’ which give guests a more private gathering area.

“Whether our guests are on a family trip or staying for business, the lobby area has become a very important part of the hotel experience. Many guests prefer to check their email in a social space – or enjoy some food or leisure time with friends,” said Familiant, “A hotel is no longer just a place to lay your head, it is a destination for events and conferences which offer spaces for guests and attendees to gather and interact.”

Home to the famous Sky Dome revolving lounge that sits atop the hotel offering visitors the most spectacular views of the Washington DC area, Potomac River and Pentagon, the hotel sparkles after recent renovations. Ideally situated in the Crystal City corridor, the DoubleTree by Hilton Washington DC-Crystal City is just minutes from the nation's capital and major business centers. The hotel is a pleasant walk to the Pentagon City Fashion Mall where guests can enjoy a variety of restaurants and shops, including Macy's and Nordstrom. The Metro is minutes away as are the wonders of the Smithsonian museums, the National Gallery of Art, the Capitol, the White House or any of Washington's many world-famous museums and monuments. DoubleTree by Hilton Washington DC-Crystal City has 631 guest rooms, including 152 beautifully appointed suites - some with panoramic views of Washington, D.C. and the Potomac River.
