A Hidden Gem in the Washington, DC area Upgrades its Meeting and Event Space

This week the Westin Arlington Gateway, just steps from Metrorail that connects the hotel to Washington, DC, completes a full renovation of its over 10,000 square feet of meeting and events space. “We are getting very positive feedback from our clients that have seen the new space,” said Tim Bowes, VP of Sales for Crescent Hotels & Resorts, management company for the 338 room upscale hotel. Westin Arlington Gateway is one of over eighty hotels throughout the United States and Canada (including 16 hotels in the Washington DC area) managed by Crescent Hotels & Resorts.

“One of the core beliefs of the Westin brand is wellness. We believe that everything we do is designed to help you be at your best,” said Michael Broadhurst, the hotel’s general manager. “We feel this philosophy continues throughout the entire hotel – including our meeting space. Simply put, we want all our business meetings to be the best for all who attend. As for our social events, may they be extravagant weddings or intimate birthday parties, we want to play a key role in creating experiences guests will remember for a lifetime.”

All nine meeting rooms, including a boardroom and all pre-function areas, have received a complete refresh, from the new carpet to the ceiling treatments. Several of the pieces of artwork that add a calming tone to the space have been upgraded as well and new a refresh of colors throughout the space.

“We feel it’s important to always be taking a look at our hotel and find ways to upgrade our services,” stated Broadhurst. “Many clients consider us the flagship hotel of this location. As the Ballston area is such an affluent neighborhood in Arlington County, those planning weddings and other social gatherings through the Northern Virginia area have high expectations, and we like to over deliver.”
