Wingate By Wyndham Chantilly / Dulles Airport

We just returned from staying 5 nights at the Wingate in Chantilly and couldn’t be happier. I originally booked with the option to cancel but as the trip got closer changed my reservation to one that could not be cancelled and ended up saving $ 75 for the stay. Very easy to find with plentiful FREE parking. I had requested a higher floor and we were put on the 4^th floor with a nice view of the little pond behind the hotel.
The king sized bed was very comfy, the half pillows were a little odd but at least there were a lot of them. The room was always cleaned beautifully (we left a tip everyday and one day they didn’t even take it). The carpet was a little stained but nothing scary, just from heavy traffic and some of the plaster on the ceiling was chipped but nothing else in the room seemed worn at all and if you’re bothered by little things like that you should be staying in a hotel well out of our price range. It was very quiet and every employee that we dealt with was very friendly. The pool and hot tub were wonderful especially after walking several miles each day and all but one night we were the only ones using it. Free WiFi was fine, not as laggy as many hotels who offer free WiFi. We didn’t discover until our last night but they have a little shop with snacks, drinks, frozen dinners as well as menus for a ton of restaurants in the area.
The breakfast was very nice, not the typical hotel cold cereal and bagels. Great variety… juices & coffee, several hot options… some type of egg, bacon or sausage, potatoes and one day there was sausage gravy, different breads & pastries, a waffle maker, oatmeal, cereal, yogurt, fresh fruit. We appreciated being able to fill up on a good breakfast without having to find a restaurant.
With traffic it was about half an hour from the Wiehle-​Reston metro station and there were lots of great food and shopping options very close by. I would not hesitate to stay here again. The price was right and we really wanted something with free parking and an indoor pool/​hot tub.

I find this to be an average tier hotel. For the price I paid, I got what I expected. The hotel could have been in better condition as there was a portion of my ceiling that looked like was falling off, but that didn’t really bother me. I was very happy with the breakfast options. I stayed at the motel for a week and every morning they had waffles, a variety of cereals, scrambled eggs, either bacon or sausage patties, and biscuits and gravy. They also had a variety of fresh fruits. My room was large and I enjoyed the HD TV. The one complaint I have is that tours definitely use this motel all the time. So even though the breakfast was great, there was always a lot of people congregating in the breakfast area and dining room. Out of the 7 days I stayed at the motel about 5 tours came through. Other than that, everything else was great.

Best hotel I’ve stayed at for the price! Very clean, spacious room with a living area (couch, coffee table, lounge chair, desk). The bed was comfortable and everything worked just fine. The hot breakfast was very good-​usually scrambled eggs or omelettes, meat like sausage patties/​links or bacon, biscuits and sausage gravy, and also muffins, bagels, toast, fruits, juices, hot tea, hot chocolate, and coffee (not the usual tasting «hotel» coffee, though!)
The heated indoor pool and hot tub was clean and never crowded. The only downside was that it was only open 5pm-​10pm, so we couldn’t swim during the day.
The best thing about this hotel, for me at least, is its pet policy! They welcomed my 6lb Yorkie with no problems whatsoever. Usually, hotels that are pet friendly with a low pet fee per night are very hard to find, so I usually have to sneak him in. I’ve seen small dogs to 80lb dogs here, so size isn’t an issue, either. They just requested the pet not be alone so they don’t bark and disturb sleeping guests.
Overall, GREAT hotel, HIGHLY recommend you stay here when visiting Washington DC, or even Baltimore (only about a 45−50minute drive)!

This is a very basic busy hotel located in Chantilly. As part of our Fly/​Drive package we stayed here on our return from our European vacation. Arrived late in the evening at the airport, tired, exhausted wilting in the heat, We had to wait at least 20 minutes for the shuttle bus. Their service does not compare with other hotels in the area. Not close enough to the airport, and, with only one bus running, it’s just not worth it to us to stay at this hotel again.
The Good: Clean & well maintained property.
The Bad: High traffic hotel with lots of tour bus traffic (Kids)
The Ugly: Poor shuttle bus service compared to the competition.

From what I’ve seen of the other photos, the lobby has been redecorated. It has a nice blue with neutral colors theme. I think it definitely looks better.
Made small talk with desk attendant, he was really nice & funny. Great to meet someone so welcoming after a long drive. This hotel is in a great location, there are a bunch restaurants & eateries to try (& I will) very close by.
The hotel has an outdoor & indoor pool with hot tub. The fitness area is essentially two treadmills, but free wifi, breakfast, & business area helps out.
As for our room… Actually pretty clean. Nice king sized bed, flat screen can swivel so we’re gonna play Dance Central in the extra space Lol. I like that there is a safe to keep your valuables. I did not like the lonely stand of hair in the soap dish part of the bathroom.
All in all, this is a good choice for a moderate price.

Unlike Nikki, we stayed six nights, and found the hotel to be clean, comfortable, pleasant! The staff was great… free shuttle to Dulles, and from there, you can take the metro to the city. The cleaning staff was great, as was the breakfast staff, especially Ms. Vargas, who was always smiling and helpful. The price was great, and the location was set within minutes to many restaurants and stores, and an easy trip to either the airport or Wash. DC. There was even a walking path around a tranquil pond, and tables to enjoy your free breakfast at!
The breakfast was the standard hot and cold… scrambled eggs and a meat every day (sausage patties or links, or bacon), home fries, high end yogurts, muffins, pastries, and breads, cereal boxes, unlimited coffee and juices, etc. There is a free US Newspaper everyday at the door, and they were happy to bring extra towels if asked for the indoor pool and hot tub!
We can not say anything bad about this place… and when we come back to DC, we will definitely stay here again!

OVERALL:
It is near DC and the airport and reasonably priced with other hotels in the area. I would steer away from this hotel unless it is the only hotel open. They need to overhaul the hotel and the staff’s attitude.
CONS:
I really am not happy with this hotel or the staff. The hotel really needs some money spent on it. The carpets are worn out in the rooms and they have cracks in the walls. Pillows feel like they are filled with with golf ball size dense cotton balls. The pool is only open from 5 – 9 on weekdays. So if you have kids don’t expect to swim during the day.
The staff would benefit from an attitude overhaul. They are not rude, but nobody seems to go out of the way to help. We had four people in our room and only two towels. When i asked housekeeping for two more towels we were told no. When we asked front desk for additional assistance about or local amenities we were told to look information on the internet. The staff at breakfast would wipe off counters and they would still be dirty. We had ants all over our room. When I complained to the front desk no apology was given and I was just told to move rooms. The cordless phone in our room near the beds did not work. When maintenance came to the room he could not fix it and told us to use another phone at the desk. It seems the hotel will not replace CF bulbs until the are completely blown out. Lots of flickering CF bulbs in rooms and main areas.
PROS: The hotel has the standard hot breakfast. Rooms have fridge and microwave. The WiFi seems to work well with no interruptions. We are very close to the airport and almost never hear a plane.

3 nights at the Wingate by Wyndham Chantilly, and I cannot wait to get out of here. Unfortunately, I’m stuck here another night. This is THE WORST hotel I’ve ever stayed at. First night I checked in, I found the refrigerator not working, the handset on the in room phone wouldn’t transmit my voice to the front desk, Queen sheets stretched beyond capacity on a king bed so the mattress was showing on both sides, creepy crusty strain on the sheets like someone blew their nose on it, mold in my bathtub, and stains on the walls by every garbage can. There was a hole in the wall where an outlet used to exist and peeling wallpaper. When I used the hot tub, it literally DESTROYED my bathing suit and my daughters as well as my mother’s jeans that got splashed. It bleached us so badly that the color is gone and elastic dissolved. The customer service SUCKS. The guy at the counter basically said «not my problem». I will NEVER stay in a hotel owned by this company again. I’d rather sleep in my car. The one star is because I was inside, out of the cold. Not worth the price.
