Hotels near Amtrak Auto Train - Lorton Station, Lorton

My teenagers and I stayed overnight after a day trip in DC. Overall, our stay was pretty pleasant. Check-in was a breeze. I booked online and received my keys and information regarding breakfast (7-10 am on Saturday). The room was pretty clean and nicely decorated, plenty of storage. One downside to our room was the entry door. It was off track and hard to close. A time or two we were left vulnerable because the door wasn’t pulled hard enough to close properly. The facilities had just one working elevator which didn’t cause us much grief because we were on the second floor and close to the steps. Otherwise, there was a bit of a wait to gain access to the other floors. Breakfast was fine, pretty decent options. We don’t eat pork so the turkey bacon option was a pleasant surprise. Food seemed to be well-stocked and consistently replenished. Right off the highway. Mexican restaurant on same lot was good, great service too. Other quick food options across the street. My son tried the gyro spot and enjoyed it. Overall good stay.

Located just 10 minutes drive from Potomac Mills the hotel is located a way away from the I95, visible only in the distance. Some traffic noise from our room but not significant. Check in was friendly, efficient and helpful. We were given a list of dining options by the receptionist. The room was freshly renovated, extremely clean and very comfortable. We ended up dining a few minutes drive away. There were plenty of options from about 0.1 miles away as well as delivery. Breakfast was standard Hampton Inn and absolutely fine. Would recommend.

I can’t say enough about this hotel. I travel close to 300 nights a year and this was by far the best hotel I’ve been too. From the staff, housekeeping, hotel amenities and breakfast it was truly fantastic. I stayed at this hotel from January 31- April 22 and will only stay there if I need to go back to the DC metro area. It is very close to the metro going into the city. There is always Lyfts and Ubers around. Loads of restaurants just down the road. The billing was flawless, I never once had a issue. Every time I had a issue it was quickly resolved. I would give this hotel 10 stars if I could.

My family and I stayed in this hotel on New Year’s Eve and while the hotel itself was okay, I have a lot of issues. 1) The biggest issue was that I got a screw in my tire from the parking lot. They are doing construction at the hotel and obviously do not clean up their mess. After checking in and finally finding a place to eat, which is limited in the area, we came out to find a flat tire. I went to complain to the front desk and was told,”Oh, sorry. I’ll make a note of that”. I had to call AAA and wait for them to come. Meanwhile, the restaurant closed (as did most others). I would have expected the hotel to offer some kind of compensation for the damage, the inconvenience and the frustration, but nothing. 2) Also, I called the day before to see how far it was off of route 95 since I am unfamiliar with the area and the man at the front desk said they were just off the highway. That was NOT true. They ended up being almost 8 miles off of 95!!! So after driving for over 6 hours and just looking for a place to eat and sleep, we had to drive another 15 minutes out of our way to get to this hotel.

This property was probably a nice place at one time. It’s still pretty good but seems like it’s on the way down. There were several signs from “management” that gave me pause and seemed like “red flags.” One sign said if you were extending your stay and didn’t pay by noon they would take your possessions and hold them until you paid. Makes me think this is a common problem in this hotel if it warrants a sign. Another sign said if you were caught wasting breakfast food you would be charged a fee. Makes me feel as if the clientele frequenting this hotel must be of questionable character if this is happening often enough to warrant a sign. There were other signs but I won’t go through them all, but overall it didn’t give me the sense that it was a great place to be and I felt afraid to make a mistake. Like what if I tried the waffles and didn’t like them? Would I need to eat then anyway. The shower curtain rod was coming detached from the wall and since the rod was curved and sagging it caused the curtain to collect in the middle and basically not work as you’d like a shower curtain to work. Overall, I was anxious to leave this hotel. Luckily it was a quick, one-night, stop. Next time I will probably spend the extra money and stay somewhere else.

I made my reservations on line through the Choice Website and check-in was quick and easy. Once in my room I found it to be clean and the bed comfortable and well mad. The bathroom in my room was one of the smallest that I have encountered with this chain. The room overall as I sad was clean but it was beginning to show it's age. It front cover of my HVAC Unit was loose and quiet loud but after a little work I was able to secure it enough to stop the noise. The breakfast area features the usual waffles, eggs, a meat, with fruit, yogurt, cereals, juice and coffee. The breakfast area can get very crowded but for the most part the attendant keep it clean and well stocked. This hotel features a Free shuttle to the Franconia-Springfield Metro Station which is a little over a mile away. With free parking at the hotel this shuttle is a very nice feature that we took advantage of several times during our stay. When we arrived back at the Metro Station, we simply called the hotel for pickup and in about 10 minute our shuttle arrived. Over all I was very satisfied with my stay and will stay here again when I am in the D.C./NOVA area.

Classy hospitality in the morning! After a restful evening we arose to excellent customer service from the front desk receptionist. Anthony ensured that we were aware of all of the options for coffee and breakfast in order for us to have a great start to our morning. His professionalism and charm is exactly what every Courtyard Marriott guest should encounter during their business or leisurely stay. Thanks Anthony!

The staff from reception to restaurant to cleaning were friendly and efficient. Highlights of the breakfast buffet were the fluffy scrambled eggs and olive oil roasted potatoes with fresh parsley - served by Chef Shah! The free shuttle to the shopping mall and metro train was convenient.

As long as I go to Washington, I live here. The parking lot is very large, and it is 20 minutes to get to the core area on the highway. It is more convenient than living in the city. There is a Vietnamese rice noodle shop on foot, and dinner can satisfy the Chinese stomach.
