The Best Farragut Hotel: Club Quarters
Why: Often Lowest Rates

There are five hotels within a short walk of the Farragut Orange and Red line stations. Of the five we recommend Club Quarters. Club Quarters will not impress a loved one, but at the same time it will provide tourist and business travelers alike with adequate accommodations at rates below the nearby competitors. A vast majority of all reviews are positive for Club Quarters, and guests will get free wifi. Some travelers complained about the small rooms and that there is also no breakfast offered in the lobby. Keep in mind, each hotel near the Farragut Metro charges at least $35 per night for parking including Club Quarters. Weekend visitors to DC will find that rates at nearby hotels drop drastically and therefore it might be best to look elsewhere over choosing Club Quarters.

The trouble with hotels in downtown DC, and especially Club Quarters is that rates climb drastically during the week. You can expect rates to hover above $200 for Hampton Inn, Sonder The Quincy, Hilton and Mayflower Renissance. The good thing is that rates fall as business travelers leave and that frees up rates so that tourists can take advantage and stay at upscale hotels like Hilton or Mayflower Renaissance. As for this location Hampton Inn is probably the best all-around option for most tourists. Enter your dates in the widget below to find the best hotel deal at Farragut.
