Wasn't close to much, so without a car it might be tough. But within walking distance to the New Carrollton metro station and the hotel does have a very nice shuttle driver to take you to nearby places. The rest of the staff is very, very, very nice; made the two day stay feel comfortable. One thing that sucked was that I could hear what sounded like a dumptruck in the parking lot next door at 4 am. Hopefully you're not a light sleeper! read more

This is hands-down the best Marriott Courtyard I have EVER stayed in. The Bistro serves excellent food. All of the staff were very friendly and helpful and went out of their way to make things great. Plus they provide a shuttle to the IRS office and Metro. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. read more

This is an older style Courtyard. Nothing fancy but very nice. Our room had a nice balcony and a refrigerator. I feel the Courtyard chain is the most consistent of the ones we frequent. I have never been disappointed by one yet. The only minuses were the constant freeway noise (which does not really bother me so much) and the people above us whose child thumped around the room at all hours. We did not ever make it to the pool or whirlpool as it closed at 10 which is a little early if you ask me. And it seems that most Courtyards are moving away from the available-all-the-time coffee and tea which used to be a draw. After a 12 or 14 hour day of hitting tourist attractions I like a little coffee and to soak my aching feet in the whirlpool. But oh well. I will tell you about our two favorite things here. The first is the very short walk to the Metro station. This is the reason we chose this hotel. It is an easy .5 mile 10-15 minute walk, depending how bad your feet hurt after a day in DC ha ha! Appsrently they have a shuttle that may run you back and forth to the station but we were not aware of this. It is not mentioned on the website that I know of and we saw it is the only way we know. Our room was in the rear of the hotel looking at a wooded area. There is a crazy cardinal who would come out every morning and look at/fight himself in the side view mirrors on the car. Very entertaining. And upon inspection of the car there was evidence he had spent a lot of time keeping himself very busy if you know what I mean! I know the cardinal story is random but I am a bird lover and it was a treat. read more

This hotel is unsafe and has horrible management! As a Marriott Rewards member for over 10 years and having just stayed at the Providence, RI property for 8 nights, I would expect much more from this Landover, MD location. My car was in their parking lot and overnight thieves came and busted my back window and stole a suitcase, tennis rackets, speakers, and a 2nd bag of clothes. The hotel manager and Marriott claims department do not even care!!! I have spoken with over 4 people including supervisors and they are still charging me for my stay!!! It was a horrible experience and we will never stay with Marriott again!!! read more

My room was clean, the staff was nice, and the location was great for work. What wasn't so good was that the outdoor courtyard was messy, I could hear the interstate from my room, and the location felt like it was in the middle of no where. Even though there was no gas station, restaurants, shops, or market within 1 mile radius, the place was very close to the interstate exit/entrance. The place wasn't too bad but I will have to think twice before coming back. read more

Returned to this property this week and was as happy with it this time as I was the last time. Really nice, comfortable, well-maintained property. And great staff! Read Cynthia N. She says it all (05/25/2012 review). read more

Clean Quiet Close to METRO Stayed here for a Science Fair event. It is in a quiet office park neighborhood. Rooms are a little smaller for a typical courtyard. My room did not have a microwave - which is an anomaly for a courtyard. On the other hand room prices are lower too. Front staff and the cafe staff are friendly. Food is good but pricey - then most hotel property cafes are. There are no other good food options within walking distance. Metro's New Carrollton station is a 10/15 min walk or a free shuttle away. Thus if you are visiting D.C. on a budget - this could be an option. Overall I am happy for the location and price paid and will recommend this place. read more

The stay was pretty enjoyable with a few quirks along the way. First they have removed all the vending machines so that you buy from their front desk at a higher rate. They also have a resteraunt in the hotel, however it is over priced bar food, I would not recommend. The business center has nothing but problems. The can't seem to keep their printers working to save their lives. read more

I had a 1 night stay; 2 rooms. At check-out, I turned in the room keys and agreed to email-receipts. After a few days, I reviewed my credit card activity and found a $250 charge. Contacted the manager, Fred, to inquire and learned that the fee was associated with a "smoking" charge. I informed the manager that I do not smoke, nor does anyone in my party. I was informed that there was evidence of smoking in the room. I asked for the evidence and 5 days later...still no evidence. I was told that the housekeeper has the evidence. Seems to me that if a customer is charged such a fee then management would have secured the "evidence" so that in the event the customer disagreed with the charge, the "evidence" would be available to management....not housekeeping. At any rate, I have instructed my credit card company to handle the dispute. I would have appreciated professionalism and an immediate send of the "evidence" from the manager, but this did not happen. Very disappointing. I will NEVER stay at this location nor any other Marriott going forward. Be aware of BOGUS CHARGES!!! read more

It was clean. Staff was friendly. Cool location. Not too far from dc and my buddies house.

Nice hotel stay and an inexpensive way to stay close to DC without the exorbitant costs. Service was very good. Staff were all polite and had whatever we needed right away (crib, extra towels, etc). Has a pool, although I never went in. No complimentary breakfast, but they do have a Starbucks machine downstairs. Clean and comfortable, would stay again. read more

If you are okay risking vandalism to your car in the parking lot, then by all means stay here. If you don't' want to deal with the hassle, avoid this hotel by all means. We had our car windows smashed and items taken out of the car last weekend. We were offered no compensation for our stay or our losses, even when I asked the manager and the Marriott Claims Department. I wouldn't feel safe in this hotel ever again and would never choose to stay there. If you must, stay above the first floor. read more

Perfect place to stay when visiting DC. Close to train and FREE shuttle service running very frequently to and from train. Staff was more than helpful our entire stay. Provided info on local places to dine. The in house "Bistro" was convenient and clean with the most polite and prompt staff. The pool area and rooms were very clean. My kids had a blast here on the down time after DC visiting. The courtyard was a great place to eat breakfast or wind down at night. My husband didn't like the "soft" beds, but if you are looking for a nights sleep that is equal to yours at home while traveling anyplace, you are not being realistic. The staff was A plus. read more

Not the nicest one they have. Too far away from anything but the transit station. No walking to a place here to eat!

I've stayed at the Courtyard for roughly 15 nights over the last couple months. It's not the best hotel but it is one of the better quality for the price hotels in decent distance. Bistro staff was always great. Front Desk staff were polite and helpful during the day but the night shift was hit or miss. As others have mentioned there is not much at all around the hotel. If you flew in and took the metro or a cab to the hotel, you'll be needing a cab to go anywhere other than the Subway hidden in the bank directly across the street. There are not other stores nearby what so ever. The small shop inside the hotel has a limited stock of food and toiletries. The Front Desk does also have some random items you might have forget (toothbrush, razor, etc.). The hotel does offer a shuttle to/from the Metro stop and they did offer to run me to the store if I needed to go when I asked if they sold laundry soap but I had a rental here. The indoor pool is very small but it was always empty during my stays (in the winter though). There was always a staff member sitting in the chair on their tablet/phone; assuming they are a lifeguard? Couldn't tell unless it was their lunch break spot. The fitness room is good enough for a hotel. Fairly small but it has a couple cardio machines, a free bench and free weights. It seemed clean every time I used it. If you want to run outside, the main road is almost 1 mile exactly in a circle around. Running down at the Capitol Mall is great but it's about a $10 metro ride round trip or an hour each way during traffic hours. Free parking though if you get there before 7am. The laundry room only has a single washer and a single dryer to share among the entire hotel. There is no sale of laundry soap or dryer sheets on site so bring it with you or you'll have to run to Shoppers or Walmart (a few miles away). It also costs $1.50 for each. The free WiFi gets bogged down horribly when the hotel is booked up. During my most recent stay I hit the next Rewards tier and got free upgraded Wifi which supposedly offers a better connection for streaming movies. It didn't get any better; it actually seemed worse this past week when the entire floor was full of random UPS drivers in training. My only real gripe is house keeping. It seems like they only clean your room once or twice if you stay a week and they don't do more than empty your trash and replace the towels. I checked in on a Sunday, and noticed a large white "stain" next to my bed on the carpet. It's pretty obvious what it is ... no reason to go into details here. I called the front desk and they said housekeeping had gone for the day but they would leave them a note to clean it tomorrow. They offered to give me a new room but I had already unpacked my luggage into the dressers and closet .. didn't want to re-pack and move. The next day the stuff was still on the floor. This time I took a picture with my phone and walked down to the desk. The woman I talked to the night before was there and she said housekeeping said they cleaned my room. I showed her the photo -- she almost puked. Day 3 comes and it is still there. At this point I asked to be moved to a new room. The new room was clean but from Day 3 to 8, I never saw housekeeping inside once. I washed my own towel on night 5 or 6 when I did my own laundry. I'd recommend this hotel to anyone staying in the beltway area; especially if you want a quick walk/drive to the Metro or any of the business buildings in the loop here. read more

Stayed one night for a soccer event at the FedEx Stadium, which is walkable (20 min.) to save on driving or even a shuttle. Had to review because the staff at this hotel was EXCEPTIONALLY friendly and helpful - all greeting with a smile and direct eye contact. Hotel is nicely renovated and clean, great Euro style shower. The only thing I'd change is that the pillows are very firm and high, uncomfortable for shorter patrons. read more

My husband and I have stayed at this hotel before and had an okay stay which is why we decided to come back. Unfortunately, due to the poor customer service skills of the front desk clerk and Operations Manager we will no longer choose this hotel as our hotel of choice when we come in the area. When my husband first came to check-in, she explained to him that the rooms were not ready so he decided to come back. Understandable. When we did come back and asked to make sure the type of room we have been requesting and payed for is what we are getting, she decided to give us a nasty attitude and told us she could not assist us because they were packed. Well that is fine, we will just call your manager, not because you are at capacity ( we understand) but because of your poor people skills. When we get to our room, we inspect it as we normally do and realize that the bathroom shower head has mold and blue rust all around and does not function properly (We can't shower without it). When we called to complain, again, the lady had an nasty attitude. I understand you don't want to be at work because it's Friday, but the least you can do is pretend to provide decent customer service. My husband works in the hotel industry as well and he was disgusted, not only by the mold in the bathroom, but by this woman's less than average customer service abilities. The hotel engineer came to our room and switched out our shower head super fast and was incredibly nice and polite so kudos to him and to the gentleman who brought our microwave and towels. read more

This place was beyond amazing, the people the food was awesome the bar area was great. came from Las Vegas Front desk staff was very friendly. the metro station is about a block away. they have a shuttle that will take you there. room was clean, comfortable if you want to get away from the city a little bit i would 100% recommend this courtyard, and even stay again if i had too!! read more

When looking for a place to host out-of-town guests for our wedding, Courtyard New Carollton Landover made the choice easy. The room rates were affordable, the staff responded quickly and helpfully to all questions we asked, and our guests were very happy with the accommodations. The hotel also agreed to hand out gift bags to our guests as they checked in, helping to create a welcoming environment before our wedding even started. In a city with many lodging options, we are very happy we chose the Courtyard New Carollton Landover for our special day. read more
