Great value for the size

I live in a 900 sq ft one bedroom with a sunroom and pay $2400. Parking is an extra $125 a month which is a lot cheaper than other buildings in the area. For a total of 2525 per month I get access to a gym, beautiful clubroom, and roof top pool. Overall the building is clean, but doesn't have as many amenities as other buildings (ex. the concierge is only there from 9-5, not all day; the gym is fairly small). But for the price and proximity to DC I'm very happy with it. Management has been pretty responsive the time or two I've had to have something repaired. As for noise, I've been able to hear music if someone has people over while in the hallway, but once in my own apartment I can't hear anything. Overall it's a very quiet community.

Great Location & Amenities

Parc Rosslyn is in a great location for folks looking for a short commute to campus, proximity to metros, and biking/walking to DC. It's just down the hill from Safeway and Target (5 minutes up the road), making the move-in process pretty easy. The building has a secure package drop-off location, loading dock for furniture drop off, 9 am - 6 pm staffed desk, key fob entrance/elevators, onsite gym, underground parking garage (parking not included), pet-friendly, rooftop pool, and grilling/outdoor spaces. Management is responsive and takes care of maintenance issues promptly. COVID restrictions have removed the ability for residents to use all of the shared spaces (gym is available by appointment) but I appreciate other resident's compliance with wearing masks in and around the building. It is marketed as a luxury apartment, and while there are more luxurious apartments in the area, I think this is a much better deal for location, fixtures, amenities, and community.

Great View Amazing Service

Highly recommend this apartment. Prices are comparable to what ever other apartment in the area charges. The apartment is very big (over 800 sq. Ft.) and accommodates my large furniture. I have an amazing 9th floor view of the Washington monument. Commute wise, it’s about a 30 minute walk/train ride to the law school and a 5-10 minute drive (without traffic). Walls are thick and you can’t hear anything around you.

Great location but awkward floor plans

Really great new building near the Rosslyn metro. There's a little park right outside so it's convenient if you have pets. The carpet in every room, however, is not. There's a cute little rooftop pool but you have to sign-in and prove that you live there every time you go up - a bit annoying to say the least and even a deterrent. Parc Rosslyn is full of little contradictions like this. You can tell the building was constructed quickly for raking in profits without the best planning or contractors. The floor plan we had was awkward and there would be little details that'd be off, like all the electrical sockets being upside-down. Not a dealbreaker as the location and overall amenities are nice, but just not as well-thought out as you'd expect for what you're paying. Front desk and leasing office can be a toss-up as there's a lot of turnover.

High-rise living with rooftop pool

The Parc Rosslyn apartments is a great place to live. There are excellent amenities, the day-to-day staff are very friendly and helpful, and the apartment is pretty nice. It's a good value compared to most of the neighboring luxury places that are going up. As with most high rises, there isn't really a sense of community beyond getting to know a few other residents and the people who work the front desk (who are wonderful), but the building is very diverse and everyone is friendly. The gym is decent, the rooftop pool is great, there's a large club room available by reservation and an outside patio with grill. The building is fairly secure with key pad access. The biggest con is the continued construction across the street, which makes parking a challenge, as well as just entering and exiting the building (at times). The building is also under new management and they are still working through a few kinks (email system and rent payment system have been issues). Pets are welcome and their breed restriction list/rules are better than most. It's walkable to metro, Courthouse and Clarendon neighborhoods, as well as Georgetown on a nice day.

Nice place with decent location

The management company has given us no problems so far. The apartment is nice and spacious. The rent is not terrible considering where we are. I wish we were a little closer to the metro; it is about an 8 minute walk to the Rosslyn metro and 10 minutes to the Courthouse metro, but both walks involve serious hills. We are a relatively short walk from Georgetown, which is nice. If you don't want to live in the city (higher taxes, mroe expnsive, busier, etc.), then this is a nice compromise, as it is between work and the city. There isn't a whole lot going on in Rosslyn, though, since it is mostly commercial and not as residential as some of the other areas along the silver line. If you want to be near nightlife and restaurants, this isn't the best location, but if you want a quieter, less busy environment, then this would be a good location for you.

Getting around Rosslyn


Rosslyn Reviews

135 reviews
Rosslyn is great, gets a bad reputation from the snobs that think they're better for living in the city but it's safe, there's lots of good food nearby and everything is close and convenient. If you're more relaxed and not big into always going out or wanting to be surrounded by movement I would definitely recommend living here in Rosslyn than directly in DC. American University isn't very close though, it's normally like a 10 minute Uber or a 45 minute metro.
As a Georgetown student, the location can’t be beat...especially at this price. Less than 10 min scooter from campus. Metro station a few blocks away.

However, this has been a business district for ages. There is very little going on around here and many of the restaurants don’t even open on the weekends. But, that’s changing. So stay tuned!

(Also, I like living in Virginia because my vote counts for more here!)
It's a great area as someone who is looking to live somewhere with easy access to popular sites but without having to live with the noisiness in the "center of it all." It's an easy walk to Clarendon (it's about 0.35 mi walk to Whole Foods, 0.7 mi walk to Trader Joes) and a quick stroll to the metro station (only about 0.2 mi walk). It's a mix of residential apartments and corporate offices, and is quieter but still with a strip of restaurants, coffee, medical offices, and nail/hair salons.
I loved living in Arlington (so much so that we're moving back after our lease is up in DC). The exact location of the apartment was not ideal - we were about a 15-20 minute walk to the nearest metro. If you could be right in Rosslyn (near the metro) I think it would be a great area for professionals. We will be moving out to Clarendon next - an area that is great for couples and young families.
I love it - it is right by Clarendon, which is a central area for bars and restaurants in Arlington. It is about 12 minute walk to the Rosslyn GUTS bus and a short uber into the heart of DC. About 1 minute walk to the Courthouse metro which is only one stop from Rosslyn and 2 stops from DC. Great restaurants and bars nearby, plus a ton of good shopping in the area. Great place to have a family and experience both DC and Arlington.
GU student notes: There are two shuttles that run through this area, one that runs 1x a hour around Arlington during rush hours, and one that runs every 10min during rush hour and 20 during off hours. There is no easy access to campus on the weekends so be prepared to UBER.

If you have long legs, renting a bike is an option. If you are like me and 5'1'', renting a bike is an option for downhill rides.

There is a lot within walking distance in Rosslyn (think 20 min average from my apt): Barnes and Noble, shopping, Whole Foods, Trader Joe's (also on the Arlington loop shuttle from GU), public libraries, CVS, Target, Safeway, lots of restaurants.

Also close to dense populations of immigrant communities if you like Chinese, Vietnamese, Korean food.
The area is very safe and close to many stores and restaurants but the community is defined by white privilege. There is not much character to the area and it is difficult to find interesting people around. I absolutely LOVE that I'm within walking distance of a Trader Joe's. I wish there was more interesting cuisine and nightlife though. Nightlife in the area is an extension of immature fratty college life.
Pros: Close to Metro station with three metro lines, new Target nearby, close to several jogging and biking trails and parks, walkable to Georgetown restaurants

Cons: Neighborhood shuts down after 5pm. Few restaurants in the neighborhood itself (this is getting better though). Concrete canyon effect because of the skyscrapers. Closest grocery store is an expensive Safeway.
