In terms of shopping and malls, where should I go that's accessible by transit?

I prefer Hilton, Marriott, and Hyatt. Which of the 3 chains have the most conveniently located location? Preferably near a metro station?
What have you found when researching?
Public mass transit systems tend to have informative web sites
Hotels often list if they are near train/metro systems
