*Walking Directions from Crystal City Metro Station (approximately 1¼ city blocks):

At Crystal City stop, go up the escalator, through the turn‐styles, past the fare card machines and up the 2nd escalator, past the entrances to Crystal City underground, and then up the 3rd escalator to the street (outside) level. Immediately after coming off the last escalator do a “U” turn & walk (approx. 20 yards) towards South Bell street. Do NOT cross over Bell street. As you are facing Bell street, on your left will be bus stop vestibules. Turn left & walk along South Bell street (behind the vestibules) and continue on under the second building. Immediately after coming from under the 2nd bldg, continue on Bell street until you get to 15th St (about 1 block from the vestibules). Now, you should be able to see the red letters of Crowne Plaza sign on the bldg located directly to your front, and slightly right (look on the side, near the top of the building). Cross over 15th St & you will be there. Just continue on the sidewalk around to the other the side of the Crowne Plaza building to the main entrance.
