We held a security conference at this hotel in September 2013. While the staff on site were very helpful, we had a lot of trouble working with the hotel from the time we inquired about using the venue through contract and event planning. The meeting rooms were nice enough, but the guest rooms left a lot to be desired. My room in particular was dirty - the hair dryer was so dirty and gross that I had to wrap the handle with a towel in order to use it. If you plan a meeting here, take a deep breath and be prepared to be patient with the sales and events staff during the planning process. Once you are on site, they go out of their way to help but I'm not sure it makes up for the hassles prior to the event.

ABOUT
From the editors of Elite Meetings
Connections prove advantageous, both in Washington and the nearby Hilton Arlington, which features skywalk access to the National Science Foundation and the many incentives of Ballston Common Mall. These 210 guest rooms and suites feature Hilton's Serenity beds, work desks, dual-line phones with voicemail, and complimentary USA Today. Club Level accommodations include complimentary breakfast and evening hors d'oeuvres in the Club Lounge. A Precor fitness center helps combat travel fatigue.
Most of the Hilton Arlington's eight meeting venues also connect to each other, giving meeting planners 5,866 square feet of flexible space for business meetings and corporate events to 500. Ballston Common Mall and the upscale Ballston neighborhood feature more than 60 restaurants, a 10-screen movie theater, and an ice skating rink for leisure enjoyment.
