Our travel advisors’ insider tip
„Breakfast included“ is the most-read promise in any hotel package – and the vaguest. In Arlington you can see at a single destination how far apart it can be.
• At The Ritz-Carlton Pentagon City Arlington from 216 € it is 32 US dollars of breakfast credit a day for a maximum of two people, à la carte, at Santé or through in-room dining. An amount, then, billed against the menu.
• At The Westin Arlington from 177 € it is a buffet breakfast for two people at the Commentary Social House – with no cap.
The notable part: the uncapped buffet is at the cheaper hotel.
Our advice: if you eat a substantial breakfast, set those 32 dollars against an à la carte menu once – in the Washington area that goes faster than it sounds. If on the other hand you want coffee and something small, the credit is the more flexible form.
Where to stay in Arlington: Ballston or Pentagon City
The two best hotels in Arlington sit in two different districts.
Marriott Marquis Washington D.C. · DowntownIn Pentagon City stands The Ritz-Carlton Pentagon City Arlington from 216 € with 32 categories. From two of them you look out at the monuments – and in this location that is not a casual word but the reason many people cross to this side of the river at all. Our recommendation for anyone who wants to see the Washington skyline.
In Ballston stands The Westin Arlington from 177 € with 9 categories; from six of them you look over the city. Our recommendation for anyone after short distances and the lower entry.
Our travel advisors know the routes between the two addresses and work them out for your particular occasion.

When it is at its best: from March to May, when the cherry blossom is out at the Tidal Basin and the days are not yet humid. Our recommendation for a first visit.
From September to November the air is clear and the city has room again. Our recommendation for anyone who wants to come without the crush.
And whatever the date: you get the suitespot benefits in the quietest week of the year exactly as in the busiest.
