Silver Spring Hotels with Bars

Do not book based on the photos, it’s nothing like that when you get there. Half the rooms have windows boarded up, absolutely filthy, and dangerous to be honest. We turned around and walked out and wouldn’t stay it was that bad. Don’t waste your money, there’s heaps of better places closer to the city.

The hotel smelled like ********* in multiple areas and there is nothing that was done about it. The cleaning people stripped the sheets and took our clothes with it, and never admitted to the theft or tried to look for it. The cleaning people came one time and left our room with no towels. The front desk is super nice and cordial.

We read the reviews and booked this trip with reward points so it's hard to complain. Just wanted to spend the night after a concert at the Silver Spring Fillmore. Room was listed as non-smoking King Size bed. Bed was about 1/2 size of a King (cramped for two people). Strong smell of cigarette smoke in the bathroom. Noise/conversations all night long and someone banging on the door shouting ”wake up! in the middle of the night. Property/grounds are aging and run down. People seemed to be living full time on the property. watching us as we got out of the car left us feeling uncomfortable. The location was good for walking to the downtown area with restaraunts and breweries along the way. We would not recommend this property to friends or anyone asking.

This hotel was clean and reasonably priced - especially if you are just looking for a place to sleep while visiting DC. The breakfast was good. So here’s the information no one shared with us and we figured out. 1. If you fly into Reagan, go to terminal 2 and get on the yellow metro toward Mt. Vernon Square (you have to know the last stop on that train to know which one to ride). So take that yellow toward Mt. Vernon Square and get off at Gallery Place. At Gallery Place Metro station, go ahead and buy the Metro pass then get on the red toward Glenmont and get off at Silver Spring Station. You can walk from the station to the hotel, but I highly recommend the bus (sure there are some quirky folks on the bus but it’s all part of the experience! Also, I never felt unsafe). The card you bought for the metro works on the bus too. Just ask someone where the buses are located. You want bus bay 222 - take the 70 toward Archives. When you see the Holiday Inn, this is your stop (it isn’t far at all, maybe .7 mile). Pull the cord and get off here. No one told us about the buses (we walked from the station, up hill with our luggage at 11:30 at night) - you may not need all this info, but this is all stuff we didn’t know. 2. You definitely need to eat at Crisfield’s Seafood. This place has been here since 1945 and it was delicious. Order the seafood bisque no matter what! 3. To head out on all your sightseeing adventures, cross the road at the Holiday Inn and ride the 70 back to Silver Spring Metro. You will most likely ride the red toward Shady Grove and get off at Metro Center. Take the blue or silver toward Downtown Largo and get off at Smithsonian to head out to the National Mall and most of the museums. You can also take the 70 immediately in front of the Holiday Inn all the way into DC but it takes forever. You can leave the HI and take a right and walk up to the next bus stop and take the 79 express to DC too. It doesn’t stop as much. These buses will take you to the Archives stop and you can take whatever metro you want from there. 4. Lastly, take the night monument tour with Signature Tours.
