I had a chance to visit the Sheraton Premiere in Tysons Corner yesterday while
returning from a trip to the east coast and can offer this report. The hotel is
about 9 miles from the Herndon-Monroe park and ride facility which in turn is
only a few miles from Dulles (IAD). The hotel is on a small hilltop and
curioulsy withing walking distance of both a Hummer dealer and and Prius dealer.
The building has impressive architecture thats largely hidden from humans on
the ground level (I guess building designs are sold with models that humans view
as though they were birds). The coolest feature is an indoor pool and spa with a
huge atrium that separates it from the outdoor pool. The weirdest thing is that
the spa is only open 7:00 to 11:00 (thats right, the jacuzzi is closed
afternoon, evening, and night!). Theres wireless Internet access on the first 9
floors. Its direct connect above the ninth floor. Theres a daily charge.
Theres no charge to park. There are numerous spots to meet, chat, hang out,
drink, eat, and make friends. It should be a terrific venue to have a 24
hour-a-day event that you never have to leave. My opinion: Should make for the
best BrickFest ever.
