Hampton Inn Dahlgren

10/10 Excellent

"It was easy to get there, good parking "

River Edge Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We were only here for about 12 hours, but what we saw we liked a lot. Starting off the check-in was smooth and easy with Shawna. The surrounding areas had nice mulch and plants. The hotel itself is a very nice brick two-story building. Parking was spacious. The room was your average to bed with a tiny desk and a closet to hang clothes along with a dresser. The bathroom is kind of small, but you’re not using the bathroom that much anyway. It’s located directly across the American Legion so be sure to bring your membership card. Speaking of locality, restaurants and bars are all walkable. It is strategically located on the Potomac river with plenty of beach. Highly recommend and I’m definitely staying here again. Also, there is a very spacious pool with plenty of room to hang out. The pool itself looked very clean as well. While we were there, we saw maintenance people cleaning the pool watering plants and just looked like they cared. "

My Place Hotel - Dahlgren/King George, VA

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great and there is only 1 improvement I suggest. The room offers a great kitchenette but there are NO tools to cook or eat with - no glasses, plates, cutlery, pots or pans to cook with. This was disappointing as we were hoping to use the hotel for a regularly scheduled weekly stays."
