What guests think

At Courtyard by Marriott Bowie, travelers consistently highlight very clean, modern spaces and especially friendly staff, alongside a quiet, convenient location near highways and local venues, though immediate dining options and complimentary breakfast are limited or unavailable.

Guests appreciate the well-equipped gym and lobby bistro/bar, while reports note occasional elevator outages and a small, chilly or uninviting pool. Rooms are modern and comfortable, but some mention low water pressure or doorless showers, occasional noisy AC, and rare maintenance hiccups. Service is widely praised as welcoming and helpful, with isolated complaints about long check-in lines, early check-in not honored, or overbooking. Best suited to travelers seeking a modern, low-key base.

The renovations are up to date and look nice. There was an annoying noise that came from the AC the ENTIRE night. The bed is FOR SURE not a king. Definitely a queen or double. There was only one elevator working. There were people outside smoking weed with no regards to anyone else. The remote had old food or something on the numbers. I was truly disgusted. The staff was super friendly though.

There were two elevators at the hotel only and only one was working. The next morning I Had to wait 20 minutes to reach the lobby to checkout. Then there was only one person assisting people to check out. Thankfully she let myself and three other people hand in the hotel room keys. Otherwise I would have been delayed in driving back to NYC .

I really went there to relax and this was ideal for that with the pool and the gym. The amenities were very good! The water was shallow in the pool but a little cold, In the room they had lots of great things and was very modern especial the bathroom and furniture. The best things was the hospitality on the lower level. The staff is both friendly and helpful! (Very accommodating) last people seem to be enjoying the bar area! I like the restaurant in the lobby! The menu was order to your specifications. They are new so not set up for room service yet! There is shopping around if you have a car. I look forward to visiting again!

Called ahead to get early checking. He said no problem and put it in the system. Showed up at the exact time we asked for and the lady up front said sorry we don't have any rooms ready, sww the note for early checking but gave me attitude and said "you can try finding a room somewhere else if you want."was hard as a rock. The only positive was that the room was clean but it should be at $240 a night. Getting breakfast took a long time. 1 guy working with a long line of people. First and last time we stay here. Don't promise early check in if you can't do it and don't give people an attitude when you promised the early check in.
