JW Marriott Reston Station opens

JW Marriott and Comstock Holding Companies Inc. have opened JW Marriott Reston Station, a 247-room luxury hotel located in Reston Station, VA— the largest mixed-use, transit-oriented community in the Washington, D.C. region. The debut marks the brand’s debut property in the Commonwealth of Virginia.
Situated in a master-planned community that attracts affluent professionals, global firms and travelers seeking a high-touch, sophisticated stay, the hotel features guestrooms that offer views from Northern Virginia to Bethesda. It includes three distinct dining concepts and the largest luxury meeting venue in the region, offering more than 40,000 sq. ft. of meeting and event space. With access to Metro’s Silver Line that connects directly to Dulles International Airport, Tysons Corner, and Washington, DC
“The opening of JW Marriott Reston Station is particularly meaningful for the brand, given its proximity to JW Marriott’s roots in Washington, DC,” said Bruce Rohr, VP/global brand Leader, JW Marriott. “This hotel reflects the evolution of JW Marriott—where timeless luxury meets world-class hospitality. With the debut of our new Mindful Rooms concept and a continued focus on well-being, we are proud to continue JW Marriott’s legacy in Northern Virginia by offering guests an exceptional experience rooted in the brand’s rich heritage.”
Chris Clemente, CEO, Comstock, added, “JW Marriott Reston Station represents the culmination of Comstock’s decades-long vision to create a new, world-class, transit-oriented destination at Reston Station. This property not only elevates the region’s hospitality landscape, it also honors Reston’s founding vision as a community designed to seamlessly integrate living, working and recreation in spaces that showcase public art by world-class artists, concerts and other cultural events.”
Guided by Robert E. Simon’s original vision for Reston and J. Willard Marriott’s commitment to impeccable hospitality, JW Marriott Reston Station was designed by architects to create a setting that “effortlessly blends the brand’s signature renowned hospitality experiences and forward-thinking innovation.” Just outside the hotel, guests will encounter Building Bridges—a striking sculpture commissioned specifically for the property by contemporary Italian artist Lorenzo Quinn. Featuring six pairs of interlocking hands, the installation symbolizes themes of friendship, wisdom, help, love, faith and hope, serving as a powerful artistic landmark that embodies the hotel’s spirit of unity and connection and is just one of the multiple public art displays greeting Reston Station’s community spaces.
The JW Marriott Reston Station’s guestrooms—which include 14 junior suites, 4 executive suites and a presidential suite—are each appointed with floor-to-ceiling windows as well as spa-inspired bathrooms. The hotel also features a fitness center designed with wood paneling and 14 Mindful Rooms, marking the debut of the brand’s new Mindful Rooms and Floors concept that is designed for travelers seeking a more intentional and personalized stay.
Each Mindful Room is a calming sanctuary for the senses, thoughtfully outfitted with natural textures, soft lighting, and a serene alcove equipped with a yoga mat, light weights and recovery tools ensuring guests can maintain their wellness routine during their travels, according to the company. Upon arrival, guests checking into a Mindful Room are welcomed with a consultation to customize their sleep and wellness experience. Customizable bespoke rituals enhance each stay, from tailored turndown services to personalized tea services curated by world-class chefs. With cocoon-like bedding, circadian lighting and carefully curated touches throughout, each Mindful Room supports deep, undisturbed rest and rejuvenation.
Anchoring the hotel’s offerings are three distinct culinary venues designed to serve both hotel guests and the broader community: The Simon, a modern Mid-Atlantic restaurant with French and Mediterranean influences; Schar Bar, a lounge featuring bespoke cocktails and an extensive wine collection; and the JW Market, a café showcasing Executive Pastry Chef Claus Olsen’s signature creations that include fresh baked goods, artisan sandwiches, locally inspired specialties and more. The hotel also features a JW Garden, cultivating herbs and produce incorporated into select menu items across its culinary offerings.
The property introduces the largest luxury meeting and event space in Northern Virginia, featuring more than 40,000 sq. ft. of flexible space that includes an 11,700-sq.-ft. ballroom with 20-foot ceilings and multiple breakout rooms with 14-foot ceilings—all laid out on a single level to provide easy access and seamless event flow. These light-filled spaces include a dedicated support team and are capable of hosting up to 1,300 guests.
“Every detail at JW Marriott Reston Station is intended to provide a truly remarkable experience, inviting guests to be present in mind, body, and spirit,” said Dewayne Wright, managing director, JW Marriott Reston Station. “We are honored to bring JW Marriott’s enduring legacy of mindful luxury to the heart of the Dulles Corridor and look forward to welcoming guests to Reston Station.”
