Budget Accommodations
Home » Washington, D.C. » Washington, DC: Lodging and Accommodations » Budget AccommodationsWashington, DC budget accommodations can seem impossible to find, but they are available. For the most part, the farther you move away from the city, the cheaper that lodging will become, and thus, “budget” lodging in a downtown hotel may mean slightly different things than budget lodging in the suburbs. In addition, if you are on a particularly tight budget, search on the Internet for hostels and budget bed and breakfasts, as these will often be the least expensive option.
If you want to stay downtown and save some money, look for economic chain hotels. Red Roof Inn has a recommended hotel on H Street and there is a Days Inn on Connecticut Avenue. For an even better location, check out Hotel Harrington, which is on 11th Street and less than a block from the White House.
These three hotels, however, are likely more expensive than what you will find in the suburbs. If you are willing to stay in Maryland (still within a Metro ride of downtown), check out the American Inn of Bethesda. On the other hand, if you prefer Virginia, consider the Best Western in Arlington, which has a free shuttle to Reagan National Airport or the Travelodge in Alexandria. The Travelodge is in a particularly good spot, Old Town Alexandria, which is worth a visit even if you’re not staying in Virginia.
