Hotel is very beautiful. Staff are friendly. Girls on Reception desk are polite and friendly and care about customers. Shuttle bus will take you to metro station and mall so it makes it easier. Aircon was not working properly during our stay but Reception staff sent us electric fan and it was ok when weather was good. Other than that... More

The location is lovely with beautiful landscaping. (Some of the more unusual plantings are even labeled.) The staff was great. When I needed extra towels, etc. the maid was accommodating and representative of the overall top-down helpfulness and pleasantness. There was a dispenser in the lobby with fresh lemons, fresh ginger, and lemongrass and water; we really liked that -... More

Upon our arrival, the room we were assigned was so bad, we went back to the reception to ask to change. The room was very tiny, and had no window, except for a small corner window. The hotel is outdated and overpriced. Breakfast was expensive, but had a good selection of goods. Overall, it is not a hotel I would... More

Basic rooms are very small, more like dorm rooms than a hotel. If you can find a good orice on one of the online booking services, I recommend opting for a suite. Staff is very helpful.Food is adequate. This is a learning center more than a hotel in a very nice neighborhood.

I was bitten quite badly by bed bugs. I noticed after 2 nights and cancelled the 3rd night. The hotel staff was helpful and ran my suitcase in their high temperature drier, they closed off my room and the neighboring ones. Still had to pay for the 2 nights I stayed there. I'm sure they will take care of the... More

I was "Googling" for a hotel in the Potomac area and happily came upon this location. I found the reservation process easy, and the room was clean, more than adequate and comfortable. Moreover, the price was reasonable and the eating facilities were excellent and reasoanbly price. I will come here next time I visit Potomac.

I stayed at The Bolger Center in Potomac, MD this March (of 2013) and I was quite pleased. I did not know what to expect as it seemed like a converted hotel (which I later found out it was) and I thought it was only for people visiting with a conference or convention. They accommodated just two of us for... More

Sleeping rooms were small but were clean and had updated amenities. The meeting rooms were great, especially the main conference room. The food was really good with lots of healthy and vegetarian selections. The staff was outstanding--100% helpful and delightful.The grounds were lovely.
