Homewood Suites by Hilton Springfield, VA

We just stayed here for an extended weekend for the Marine Corps Marathon — ¹⁰⁄₂₃ thru ¹⁰⁄₂₆ and what a great place it was! Room and appliances (full fridge/​microwave) were clean and everything was in order. Bed was comfy — toilet shower clean. The sink/​vanity was outside the toilet/​shower which is always a good design.
Staff was awesome — so VERY helpful in every way from dining, to shuttles to general info. Can’t say enough how great they were (especially Sam!).
Breakfast was great — free — from 6 — 10am. Scrambled eggs, and either pancakes or waffles or french toast with sausage or bacon. Bagels, muffins, cereal, fruit and other things always. Coffee 24 hours a day. Even though we never saw it, apparently they do a dinner for guests on weeknights — i’m willing to be it would be great. Free parking in the garage and free shuttle to the franconia metro stop. What more can we ask for??? All at a very reasonable rate.
We have a 11 and 12 year old and were just at the verge of being too cramped in a King Suite — but it worked out fine and we were all VERY happy with this hotel. Would return every time to this place — had an amazing time there. Thank you!!!

I don’t recall ever staying at a Homewood Suites, but I’m glad we did!
What convinced me to choose this place among the many chain hotels in the area was that it offered a complimentary evening social (Monday-​Thursday) complete with a happy hour AND dinner! After 12 hours on the road, this was a very welcome treat. Each person in our party was given a voucher for two draft beers or glasses of house white or red wine. Dinner changes nightly & yesterday’s buffet menu was a large kettle of chicken noodle soup & a make-​your-​own salad bar. It was a fine meal, especially seeing as it was !
The rooms were spacious, clean & tastefully decorated. Once we turned out the nightstand lamp, I was out for the night & slept soundly. Other reviews mentioned how quiet the rooms are & they were right!
The morning breakfast buffet did the job: scrambled eggs, an egg casserole, sausage links, home fries, cut melon, an assortment of cold cereals, breads, yogurts & a waffle maker.
There were a few things that we noted could use improvement. 1. Flattened, worn-​out pillows 2. Weak water pressure 3. Even weaker coffee
However, those relatively minor issues won’t keep me from staying at a Homewood Suites in the future!
