Arlington Doubletree To Roll Out $5.5 Million Upgrade

The Doubletree Hotel-National Airport in Arlington, Va., has nearly completed a $5.5 million renovation, which includes both the public areas and the property's 632 guest rooms and suites.

The hotel is outfitting the guest rooms with convenient desk areas complete with computer dataports. With the finishing touches put on the renovations, director of sales and marketing Bob Janis said the hotel will be prepared to direct more efforts at attracting the meetings and business traveler markets.

For meetings, the Doubletree offers 17 meeting and banquet rooms, including a ballroom that can accommodate 600 guests. A fully equipped business services center is located on the main level.

The hotel also offers a concierge floor, fully equipped health club and an enclosed swimming pool. The property's rooftop Penthouse Restaurant recently introduced a new menu, offering continental and American cuisine.

Located on Army-Navy Drive in Pentagon City, the Doubletree overlooks the Pentagon and is convenient to National Airport and Washington, D.C.
