I recently had an exceptional stay at Crown Plaza Crystal City Washington DC, and I wanted to take a moment to commend Trina at the front desk. She went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed, making our experience truly memorable. Her professionalism, kindness, and willingness to assist with even the smallest requests made all the difference. Trina’s exceptional customer service is a true asset to the hotel, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Crown Plaza Crystal City Washington DC to others based on her outstanding support alone. Thank you, Trina, for going the extra mile!

It said shuttle service was available. I didn’t realize that the shuttle available only for Reagan International Airport. Didn’t know there was a closer airport. I flew into Dulles IAD. For someone like me who doesn’t travel much, maybe that is something that should be prominently stated. Otherwise, it was a great experience.
