WELCOME I
conic landmarks, monumental views and lively streetscapes – all are yours to discover when you stay in Arlington during your visit to the capital region. Originally part of the “10 miles square” surveyed in
1791 to be the nation’s capital, Arlington is connected to Washington, D.C., by five bridges, and offers sweeping vistas of the Potomac River, Georgetown and the National Mall. In addition to being able to explore Arlington’s own national treasures – including Arlington National Cemetery, Arlington House – The Robert E. Lee Memorial, the National 9/11 Memorial, Air Force Memorial, and Marine Corps War Memorial (Iwo Jima) – you’re just minutes by Metro, car, bike or foot from the Lincoln Memorial, Jefferson Memorial, Washington Monument, Smithsonian museums, U.S. Capitol, White House and other area attractions.
Arlington’s Urban Villages
An easy choice for visitors seeking the perfect combination of convenience and value, Arlington is
especially beloved for its urban villages. Mostly concentrated along the region’s Metrorail system, these neighborhoods are vibrant, walkable gathering places filled with hotels, restaurants, stores, night spots, green spaces, the arts and much more. And here’s a bonus: Arlington’s 44 hotels – virtually all of which are convenient to one of 11 Metro stations – have rates that average 20 percent less than those in downtown Washington, D.C.! 6 | stayarlington.com
