Affordable Hotels Near the Metro in Arlington, VA
Arlington, Virginia
Two main sections of Arlington are on the Metro lines. First is the stretch through the middle of Arlington that runs along Wilson Blvd. from Rosslyn to Ballston, going through Courthouse and Clarendon. Here the Orange and Silver line makes multiple stops in neighborhoods that are full of hotels, restaurants, shops, apartments, cafes, and office buildings. The other section is in southern Arlington as it stretches south down the river past the airport towards Alexandria. Here the neighborhoods of Pentagon City and Crystal City are also home to hotels, restaurants, and shopping areas. Either one of these regions of Arlington are perfect for travelers whether you're visiting for fun or for business.
I lived in Arlington for many years, and I've also been back to visit many times, so I know the area well. It's grown a lot in recent years, which means it has plenty of options for every type of traveler at many different prices.

The hotel is fairly new, and resides in a newly constructed building. So, everything here is modern and clean, including the central air conditioning system. You won't have to worry about loud window units here! The bathrooms are also luxurious with spacious countertops and modern conveniences. Our room had a standing shower with plenty of water pressure.
Our room also had a king sized bed as well as a sofa that pulled out into a bed. This was great for our family which needed a little more space. Plenty of storage was provided with drawers and a large wardrobe, too. And of course the room had a TV with plenty of cable channels. Also, it had a mini-fridge, microwave, toiletries, and other features that would be expected from a luxury hotel chain such as Hyatt.
Perhaps the best part of this hotel was the amazing buffet breakfast that was full of delicious and freshly prepared food. This is not one of those small breakfasts of toast, coffee, and cereal that some hotels provide. Instead, they had various hot items such as fresh eggs, pancakes, sausage, bacon, monkey bread, and more. Fresh fruit, yogurt, granola, and cereal is also provided, as well as a large selection of bread and bagels and a large toaster. Milk and juice options rounded it out. The sitting area in the lobby for the meal was nicely appointed with large TVs for getting the day's news or weather. And the staff was fantastic and very helpful! At the time we stayed the breakfast was free, but they supposedly will start charging for it unless you join the loyalty program. It's worth it; it was delicious and a great start to the day.
Also provided at this hotel is a gym, free Wi-Fi, newspapers, luggage storage, and more. They have valet parking for a fee, or you can park in the secured garage next door for $14 per day.
Overall, this hotel is an excellent choice!

This no-frills hotel is one of the least expensive in Arlington. As it's only a few blocks from two different Metro stations (Clarendon and Virginia Square), the location is perfect for anyone looking to spend time in Washington. The rooms are fairly basic, but they provide typical hotel amenities such as a standard private bathroom, TV, mini-fridge, microwave, Wi-Fi, and more. The building might be a little outdated, but the rooms are kept clean and the service is very friendly. You can grab breakfast (or any meal) at one of the nearby restaurants, of which there are plenty. They also have their own parking lot, which can help save you money if you're driving to the area, as many other places make you pay for parking.Overall, a great value!
