Airport Transportation

Ronald Reagan National Airport is a five-minute drive from the hotel. If luggage is light, you can opt for the Metro, accessible directly from inside the airport. Take the Blue line (toward Addison Road) or the Yellow line (toward Mt. Vernon Square) two stops to the Pentagon City stop. Exit left and up the escalator to the street. The hotel is right there. Taxicabs are also available at the airport.

Dulles International Airport and Baltimore Washington Airport also service the Washington, D.C. area, but neither is as convenient as National Airport.
