Hilton Hotels & Resorts today announced the opening of Hilton Arlington Rosslyn The Key, a landmark hotel poised to welcome a new evolution of hospitality for Hilton’s flagship brand.
Located in Arlington, Va. at the base of the iconic Francis Scott Key Bridge and rising 36 stories above the Potomac River, this hotel marks a significant milestone for Hilton Hotels & Resorts as the first property to debut the brand’s refreshed identity, a modernized expression of Hilton, reflected through enhanced design and reimagined service touchpoints.

The hotel features 331 contemporary guest rooms thoughtfully designed to balance bold architectural elements with organic touches—earthy blues and warm, inviting hues that echo the natural surroundings and energy of the city. Each space serves as a place to unwind and feel at home, with creative shapes inspired by the abstract flow of the Potomac River and curated details that reflect the spirit of the destination.
The property also offers 28,000 square feet of flexible meeting and event space, including nine meeting rooms with state-of-the-art equipment and The View at the Key on the 36th floor, a signature venue offering sweeping 360-degree views of Washington, D.C., the Potomac River, and Arlington’s skyline. Additional on-site amenities include a dedicated catering and events team, modern fitness centre and inviting street-level retail outlets, including Scott’s Coffee proudly serving Starbucks.
