Top Forest Hills Hotel Reviews

Sheraton Pentagon City Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Ashley at the front desk was amazing! She was so kind to us after we had a flight cancellation and went out of her way to accommodate us. Maria at the bar was also extremely patient and friendly! These two ladies are wonderful! However the gentleman in charge of the bar that night, was extremely rude and disrespectful regarding the listed price of a bottle of wine. "
