Crowne Plaza College Park - Washington DC by IHG

Crowne Plaza College Park - Washington DC by IHG

10/10 Excellent
"It was great for our purposes. Reasonably priced, abundant free parking and quick access to a metro station. We were seeing a concert at Nationals Stadium but didn’t want to pay for or deal with downtown DC lodging, parking and traffic. This hotel is walkable (if you are young and are going to get intoxicated, neither of which were we) from a park and ride metro station. Parking at the hotel is free, but there’s a fee for parking at the station. It was maybe a 25 minute train ride to the show and back, then like a two minute drive back to the hotel. It was great. They had a decent looking breakfast but it was $20 a person. Luckily there are other eating options nearby."
