If my memory serves me right, that's ~ 6 miles from Dulles. There should be a dozen hotels that cost anywhere between $100..200 within easy cab ride of the place (don't know about buses / metro rail) - homestead / days inn type motels to marriotts

$319/night .. ? ouch. do we have a nanog rate? are there any alternative hotels nearby people are staying at with a more normal rate? We do indeed have a NANOG rate, and it will be posted at www.nanog.org by the end of the day Monday. The hotel's been working out last-minute details of web registration.

Over the course of time I have stayed at everyone of the Dulles area hotels listed below, and don't mind recommending any of them. The Hyatt at Reston is are very nice hotel and worth it if you can stomach the cost. The fact that you would save on taxi/rental fares to and from the NANOG event might help justify staying at the Reston Hyatt. Also, at the Reston-Hyatt there are plenty of restaurants/bars/shops within walking distance.
