About this Location

Facility Overview

Ace Parking at 2800 Potomac Avenue operates the structured parking garage for the dual-branded Renaissance Arlington Capital View Hotel and Residence Inn Arlington Capital View. Situated in Arlington's booming National Landing corridor, this modern, multi-level covered parking garage provides safe, weather-protected vehicle storage for hotel guests, business commuters, and travelers flying out of nearby Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA). The facility features both indoor self-parking across designated subterranean garage levels (such as G2 and G3) and premier valet drop-off services at the hotel's front motor court.

The covered garage accommodates standard passenger vehicles, including sedans, compact cars, station wagons, minivans, crossovers, and mid-sized to full-sized standard SUVs. However, drivers of oversized pickup trucks, lifted off-road vehicles, commercial cargo vans, or vehicles outfitted with tall roof boxes and bicycle racks must exercise caution. The garage maintains a standard vertical clearance restriction of approximately 6 feet 8 inches to 7 feet, meaning high-roof sprinters and commercial utility vehicles cannot enter and must make alternative arrangements.

Visitor & Driver Tips

When arriving for self-parking, pull an entrance ticket at the barrier gate and follow directional overhead signage to garage levels G2 or G3, where daily and extended visitor stalls are primarily situated. Always bring your parking ticket with you rather than leaving it in your car so you can validate or pay before returning to your vehicle. If you are using airport valet parking, proceed straight to the hotel front entrance and present your reservation confirmation directly to the Ace Parking valet attendants.

While drive-up drive-in hotel parking rates are standard for luxury properties in Arlington, drivers can routinely find significant discounts by pre-booking online through platforms like SpotHero or airport parking consolidators. During peak flight holiday windows or major military and business conferences in National Landing, garage occupancy can run high, making an advance reservation strongly recommended.
