Hyatt Dulles, Herndon

If you are doing business in the Dulles/Herndon area, this hotel is a great place to stay. Not the cheapest in the world as they hit you for $10/day for Internet and all calls are toll, so take your cell phone. The beds are good and the rooms are spacious. Mine had a small living room area. It wasn't the newest Hotel, but they were doing renovations at the time. I tend to like 5 star hotels with concierge service, so as a business traveler I tend to be picky. This place covered all the bases, and I had no problems with the room or the charges. One thing to note: the staff was of 5-star quality. They provided maps and help on where to go for food and how to get around. If you need to be in the Herndon area, this is a good choice and you won't regret it. If you like really new hotels, you might want to wait until they finish the renovations. One last thing: This hotel is RIGHT by the Dulles airport. I could see if from my 14th floor window. However, you could not hear any of the planes coming or going. The worst thing about my stay was the awful stench of the jet fuel burning when I came out in the morning and came back in the evening. The exhaust smell was just overwhelming, but did not exist inside the hotel. Hope this helps somebody decide. All in all, great stay and I would stay there again...just might bring nose plugs for the trip to and from the car :-)
