Where to Stay When Visiting Hilton (Tysons)

By Rachel Julian, Editor-in-Chief · · 5 min read

Hilton's headquarters is in Tysons. Three airports serve the DC area — and Metro reaches some campuses. Which you pick decides the trip.

Direct answer: Visiting Hilton Worldwide's HQ in Tysons (7930 Jones Branch Dr): stay in the Tysons area near the office. Stay in Tysons near Hilton — the hotels cluster around the Silver line stations and the two Tysons malls, minutes from the campuses. You can even skip a car: the Silver line runs from Dulles through Tysons into DC. Three airports serve the DC area. From Tysons, Dulles (IAD) is about 20 minutes west and Reagan National (DCA) about 25 southeast — DCA is better for short domestic hops, IAD for long-haul and international. Baltimore (BWI) is a farther ~50 minutes. Tysons is on Metro's Silver line, a straight ride from Dulles.

Hilton Worldwide is one of the world's largest hospitality companies, headquartered at 7930 Jones Branch Dr, McLean, VA 22102. That's Tysons — Northern Virginia's high-rise edge city in McLean, home to Capital One, Freddie Mac, Hilton, and Booz Allen, now stitched to DC and Dulles by Metro's Silver line.
