Cerberus Capital Management LP runs significant portfolio operations in the D.C. metro area, and if you are visiting government affairs contacts, regulatory meetings, or portfolio company leadership in the capital region, this property puts you in a budget-friendly spot east of the city. Corporate code 22501 knocks your rate down to around $238 on a $280 night, and the Radisson Rewards points you earn on top effectively shave another $19 off. For a firm that values returns on every dollar deployed, treating your hotel spend the same way just makes sense.
The Property
The Country Inn & Suites sits at 8850 Hampton Mall Dr N in Capitol Heights, MD, just outside the D.C. border along the Capital Beltway (I-495). The neighborhood is suburban and commercial, anchored by Hampton Park shopping centers and quick freeway access to downtown D.C., roughly 20 minutes west depending on traffic. Reagan National Airport is about a 32-minute drive (33.5 km), while Joint Base Andrews is closer, making this a practical base if your meetings pull you to the Maryland side of the metro.
Rooms at this Country Inn & Suites tier typically include a king or two-queen setup with a small work desk, ergonomic chair, and free Wi-Fi that actually handles video calls. Suites add a separate sitting area with a pullout sofa, which is useful if you need space to spread out documents or take late calls without staring at your bed. Microwaves and mini-fridges come standard in every room, so you can skip overpriced delivery for breakfast leftovers and snacks.
The property includes complimentary hot breakfast each morning, which alone saves $15 to $20 a day compared to eating out around Capitol Heights. There is a small fitness center and an indoor pool for unwinding after long days in D.C. meetings. Free parking is available on-site, a real advantage if you are renting a car to cover the suburban sprawl east of the city.
The Capitol Heights Metro station (Blue and Silver lines) is about a 10-minute drive, giving you a car-free route into downtown D.C., the Capitol, and K Street corridor. Several chain restaurants and a Walmart are within walking distance along Ritchie Rd and Hampton Park Blvd for quick errands. FedEx Field is nearby if timing lines up with an event, and the National Harbor entertainment district is roughly 15 minutes south.
Your Savings Breakdown
| Rate Tier | Rack Rate | Corporate Rate | Points Earned | Point Value | Net Cost | Savings |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | $170 | $145 | 2,900 pts | $11.60 | $133.40 | $36.60 |
| Superior | $280 | $238 | 4,760 pts | $19.04 | $218.96 | $61.04 |
| Premium | $450 | $383 | 7,660 pts | $30.64 | $352.36 | $97.64 |
Here is how the math works on a typical midweek night: a $280 rack rate drops to $238 with corporate code 22501, saving you $42 upfront. You then earn 4,760 Radisson Rewards points on that stay (at 20 points per dollar), and those points are worth about $19.04 at the standard 0.4 cents per point valuation. Factor that rebate in and your real net cost is roughly $218.96, putting total savings at around $61 compared to what a walk-in guest pays.
How to Book with Code 22501
- Go to radissonhotels.com (or the Radisson Rewards portal) and log into your Radisson Rewards account
- Search for Washington, D.C. or Capitol Heights, MD with your travel dates
- Expand the Special Rates or Corporate Code section on the search form
- Enter corporate code 22501 in the appropriate field
- Confirm the discounted rate appears for Country Inn & Suites Capitol Heights, compare it to the standard rate, and complete your booking
Stack Your Savings
If you hold Radisson Rewards Silver, Gold, or Platinum status, those perks layer directly on top of the corporate rate. Silver members get a 10% bonus on points earned, Gold gets 25% plus potential room upgrades, and Platinum gets 50% bonus points with priority upgrades. On a $238 corporate rate night, Platinum status would push your earn from 4,760 to 7,140 points, worth about $28.56 instead of $19.04.
The Radisson Rewards Visa card (issued by U.S. Bank) earns 5 points per dollar on Radisson stays when linked to your rewards account. That would add another 1,190 points on a $238 night on top of your base earn. If you do not carry the co-branded card, the Chase Sapphire Preferred and Amex Gold both code hotel spend at 2x to 3x their own points, which can still outperform a generic 1% cashback card.
Radisson runs periodic promotions offering double or triple base points on stays booked within certain windows, usually announced via email or the Radisson Rewards app. Booking midweek (Tuesday through Thursday) tends to produce lower base rates at this property, meaning a larger percentage discount from the corporate code. Stacking a seasonal promo with the corporate rate and elite status bonuses can push your effective points rebate well past $30 on a single night.
Bottom Line: Depending on the base rate and your Radisson Rewards status, corporate code 22501 saves Cerberus Capital Management LP employees between roughly $36.60 and $97.64 per night at this property once you account for both the rate discount and points earned. The Country Inn & Suites in Capitol Heights is not glamorous, but with a 3.6 rating across 842 reviews, free breakfast, free parking, and easy access to both downtown D.C. and the Maryland suburbs, it covers the essentials without burning through your travel budget. For routine D.C. trips where the hotel is just a place to sleep and prep, this is a smart, cost-conscious pick.
