The Spotlight on Best Western Laurel

Relaxed Comfort Near D.C.'s Music Scene

Modern and convenient, Best Western Laurel is nestled in historic Laurel, Maryland—just 20 miles from Washington, D.C. With a friendly, unfussy vibe, it’s a solid home base for music fans looking to catch a show in the capital or nearby venues. The hotel blends easy access to public transport and walkable local dining with comforting amenities like a seasonal outdoor pool and complimentary breakfast.

Why Concert-goers love it

This hotel is a top pick for concert-goers thanks to its walkable distance to the MARC train station, giving you easy access to downtown D.C. and area venues without needing a car. After a late night out, the 24-hour coffee and tea station is a lifesaver. While not directly in the heart of the nightlife, it offers a quieter, more restful environment—perfect for winding down after a high-energy show. Check-in starts at 3:00 PM, and with check-out at 11:00 AM, there's enough time to sleep in a bit.

Who this Hotel is great for

Groups of friends looking for an affordable base near D.C.
Solo travelers heading to a bucket-list concert
Couples making a weekend of it with shows and sightseeing
Fans who want a low-key place to recharge after the encore
Budget-conscious music lovers who want comfort without the downtown price

Food and Drink Options

Fuel up in the morning with the complimentary continental breakfast, perfect after a late night out. While there isn’t 24/7 room service or an on-site restaurant, the hotel is within walking distance to restaurants and a movie theater complex—great for grabbing a bite before or after a show. Bonus: the 24-hour coffee and tea bar will keep you going no matter what time you roll in.

Nightlife Options

Though the hotel itself is quiet, you'll find local bars and lounges a short drive or train ride away. Catching a concert in D.C.? You’re close enough to enjoy the city’s vibrant nightlife, but far enough to escape it when you’re ready to crash.

What People Say

Guests rave about the cleanliness and friendly staff, along with the convenient location—especially for those using public transit to get to D.C. Many highlight the great value for the price, and appreciate perks like the free breakfast and ample parking.

Areas for Improvement

Some visitors mention that the décor is a bit dated, and the Wi-Fi can be spotty at times. But for a short concert-focused stay, these are minor trade-offs.

The Bottom Line

For music fans hitting shows in the D.C. area, Best Western Laurel offers a budget-friendly, comfortable stay with easy transit access and a peaceful vibe to rest up after the encore.

A clean and convenient transit...

Liked: The hotel was clean and functional, with nothing particularly memorable, but it served its purpose. It’s located between Washington and Baltimore, which makes it a convenient stop for those traveling through the area.While it was cheaper than staying in central Washington, it still felt quite expensive considering the basic level of comfort. This seems to be a general trend in the U.S.—nightly rates are high even when accommodations are fairly modest.
Disliked: The breakfast was very low-standard, with minimal variety and no fresh options.

It was decent for over...

Liked: Beds were comfortable & nice space for the room, clean bed & bathroom.
Disliked: Our room was located at the end of the hallway close to the highway, traffic noise was really bothersome, couldn’t sleep that well. The bathroom was quiet small.
