Great place

Le Méridien Arlington were able to make a few adjustments to the menu to cater to our needs without any issues. The highlight of this venue was the food. All our guests were raving about the food, service was impeccable too. The terrace is great for cocktail hour and views are beautiful. I highly recommend Amuse restaurant for a small wedding.
There were some issues with duplicate/ incorrect charges to our card but those were resolved pretty quickly.

Perfect Wedding

After my original wedding venue, another Marriott property, fell through due to Covid, I made the switch to Le Meridien and I am so happy I did. Christian, Hazel, and their team created the perfect socially distance event that was still fun and the food was amazing! This event was planned in about 3 weeks and went so smoothly! They were very flexible about everything. I am still getting complements about the day!

Beautiful, elegant and close to the city!

We loved having our reception at Le Meridien! Tami and Karen were instrumental in making sure our experience from start to finish was very smooth. Karen took care of all of our needs for the big day and made sure every detail was to our liking. All of our guests complimented us on how nice the hotel was and how pleased they were with the food. We hosted our reception at the Amuse restaurant and the Amuse terrace for cocktail hour (100 guests). Both provide excellent views of Georgetown and allow guests to spread out and enjoy the surroundings.

The Le Meridien team could not be a better events/wedding venue. This place is a gem. Our wedding (100 people) was handled with the utmost perfection and professionalism from start to finish with tons of care and attention. This is largely due to Karen, who is a major asset to their team and just incredibly kind and attentive. I looked out of the bridal suite while I was getting ready (which, by the way, is an incredibly gorgeous room and totally luxurious) and saw Karen directing and overseeing all setup personally! The actual space is amazing - it feels romantic and urban, with a rooftop-like ceremony space that overlooks Washington DC and a reception space with beautiful fixtures and floor-to-ceiling windows. The flow of the floor plan is perfect for a medium size wedding. Distinct ceremony space, photo area, cocktail hour location, bar, reception space, and dance floor.

The hotel includes a ton of mind-blowing details in their package - if you chose to bring in nothing yourself, seriously no decor, you would have a beautiful space with everything included. My beautifu ceremony arch was provided by the venue, for example, at no charge! They allow you to bring in your items a day in advance, saving extra stress. There is a backup plan no matter what might arise! The food was truly incredible - my guests raved about it and our tasting was great. The bar had speedy and attentive service. The accommodations for all our guests were handled perfectly and everyone loved staying in the hotel. People constantly told me this was the best location for a wedding. The sales staff seamlessly transitioned our contract onwards to the actual people planning the event - something I know other brides have issues with, but at Le Meridien every detail was flawless. Every question my family threw at Karen, she had a polished, poised response that put them at ease. We know we made the right choice with Le Meridien - would definitely recommend to other brides.

We just had our daughter's wedding at Le Meridien in Arlington. The venue is stunning and the food was delicious -- the whole day was better than we could have imagined. We received MANY compliments from our guests. Throughout the planning process, the staff was professional and patient. A special shout out goes to Karen Roesch, Aaron Bailey and Calvin Ware. They took such good care of us! Karen and Miranda were on top of every detail and worked so hard to make the event perfect. Many items that other venues charge extra for (such as the cake) are included here, which not only saves money but reduces the number of details you have to worry about. If you are having a wedding in the Washington, D.C.,/ northern Virginia area, I highly recommend Le Meridien!

The venue is absolutely gorgeous and the event staff were amazing! The Milestones Celebration I planned was such a memorable event and it would not have been possible without the support from of the Hotel staff, especially Tiffany Bell, Wedding & Conference Services Manager. She is exceptionally attentive, patient, engaging and she went above and beyond to ensure that our client's experience at the Le Meridian Hotel was exceptional. Their new chef delivered food that was superb and the drinks were perfect. We have, and will continue to recommend this venue to other event planners.

We had our wedding at Le Meridien (Nov. 5, 2016) and the service was absolutely fantastic at every level. We were particularly delighted with the service provided by Tiffany Bell. She was instrumental in every aspect of the wedding from the very beginning to the very end. I initially wanted to have our wedding at the Mariott Gateway in Crystal City, but Tiffany Bell demonstrated that Le Meridien was the best choice and she was right. Tiffany Bell is simply outstanding! Thank you again Tiffany.

Tiffany, our wedding planner, was awesome! She responded to my questions or whenever I need help, immediately (or as soon as she could). I would email her every day for months, and she would always respond with a friendly hello. When we met in person, she also had a smile. Very pleasant, cheerful person. She was wonderful to work with. I would recommend her, and the Le Meridien, for your wedding plans. The only reason we did not select the Le Meridien for our wedding venue is the view. We found another place that the view was spectacular. If Le Meridien ever have a wedding location on the top of the roof, I would have selected the Le Meridien for all of my wedding needs. We would not have left anywhere for our wedding (rehearsal dinner, wedding ceremony/reception/dancing, and rooms (our 2 suites and 1 standard room was awesome)! All of our out-of-towners stayed here at the Le Meridien, and we hired a bus shuttle to transport our guests to our wedding venue (which was very close to the Le Meridien). The view, to us, was our #1 choice for our wedding venue. All else can be worked on, which we did. Awesome job Tiffany, thank you! Ralph & John

Le Meridien is the most beautifully elegant hotel in the region. Couple that with a MAGNIFICENT view, great food, and superb staff, and you have an event venue that will astonish your guests and provide them THE experience of Washington, DC. It is particularly beautiful at night. Whenever I officiate a wedding at Le Meridien, I always know that the couple and their guests are going to be more than pleased!

Le Meridien is a great venue. I photographed a wedding there last spring and the staff was wonderful. The rooftop setup was amazing. They did a wonderful job.

Andrew Morrell Photography Andrew Morrell Photography Wedding Photographers

WOW. I adore Le Meridien's intimate and elegant layout. And it's stunning for photography. What's more, Sandy and the staff are joyous, accommodating and gracious (I was doing a pre-wedding walkthrough with a couple in March 2012, when Sandy noticed that we were there and - without missing a beat - brought out a bottle of champagne for the bride and groom! How's THAT for service!!??) The hotel is so close to DC, the terraces look out over Georgetown, the Potomac and downtown DC. LOVE Le Meridien. You will too.
