    kitchenette in double queen room
    Ashley M.

    This hotel is great! It's clean and the staff is super friendly. There is delicious water, coffee, tea, and hot cocoa for refreshments available 24/7, which was much appreciated. They also serve a pretty great continental breakfast, which was great for our family! The room (2 queen beds) was spacious and had a kitchenette with a microwave, sink, and fridge. This helped save money on food and drinks during our stay! They had quality products in the bathroom. The beds were decent, although a little hard for my preferences. Overall, the stay was great! While the area was safe, the neighborhood lovely, and the hotel located close to the US Capitol and far end of the National Mall, it's not the most happening area. You may want to stay northeast of the National Mall if you want more nightlife options (although there were a few restaurants a short walk on Pennsylvania Ave). Also, it's only a 5 minute walk or so to the subway, which is great. Overall, a great hotel with helpful staff, good amenities, and clean! Would recommend!

    Moldy bathroom showers. Probably because there are no fans or ventilation in the bathroom/ closet area. And you cannot even use the bathroom sink. Your hands do not fit under the faucet. The hallways and lobby are not air conditioned which cause each room doors to stick and have to forced open. The staff were nice and friendly which was the only positive. Would not recommend anyone to stay here.

    This hotel was a fine choice for a work trip to DC. I used to live in DC in the Capitol Hill area so I knew I wanted a hotel close to all my favorite places, but there honestly weren't that many options! It was a nice stay for the most part, but it doesn't feel like a typical hotel. Mainly because the main lobby is in a separate building than half of the rooms and then the breakfast is in the opposite building. Very odd. Breakfast was just straight up bad. I opted for oatmeal my first morning (instant packaged oatmeal) and grabbed some granola bars for snacks but otherwise didn't set foot back in there. Also the only options for bowls were also paper bowls? Super weird and feels so cheap for the price of the hotel. There are so many better options for bagels or pastries and actual good coffee just steps away in eastern market. The room and bed itself were comfortable and the location really was excellent. I couldn't figure out how to work the TV and there weren't any instructions and the towels were barely big enough to wrap around me so it just felt sloppy for such an expensive hotel. The staff was nice so I probably could have asked for help with the TV but just didn't think it was worth it for the amount of time I spent in my room, seeing I was out for most of the day. I will probably try another hotel next time I'm in town but it's a real bummer because this location is just so good.

    Found the hotel through Google! A very convenient and affordable spot to stay. Walking distance to the Mall, the Capitol and a lot of dining options. The room was very comfortable and well appointed, the staff couldn't have been nicer. If I were to criticize anything a better coffee bar in the room would be it. Breakfast was included, although we didn't partake. I heard it was a nice buffet. We looked at a lot of hotels that were outrageous lot priced for this trip. I have to say this one was an excellent value for the price! We will stay here again!

    Doorway is too small for a walker to fit safely through to the bathroom.
    Karen G.

    Very nice hotel. We had a suite with two queen beds, dining area with table and chairs, sitting area and full kitchen. A walker can't fit through the door to the bathroom, which made it challenging to use. However, we needed a handicapped bathroom, but those rooms were not as nice. Also, no seats in the shower so not well it for us. We didn't think it was worth changing since the cost was the same as the full kitchen suite.

The spa experience was amazing - it is tucked away inside of the hotel and has two levels. I had an early week appointment in the morning and there weren't many others in the shared spa areas which made for a very relaxing experience. I had the Zen body experience and throughly enjoyed. I also experienced the dry sauna and vitality pool which was very clean and relaxing. The staff frequently cleans the areas and removes towels, etc to keep the areas clean. It was easy to check in and the staff was courteous and honored my AMEX benefits which was nice. I stayed in a king bedroom with waterfront view (upgraded through my AMEX benefits) and the room was bright, airy, and clean. There is 24 hour room service and I ordered a late night pizza and it was delivered within 30 minutes. The water pressure in the bathroom was good in both the shower and tub and the water gets very hot (which I personally enjoy). I did also utilize the gym (new gym equipment and all the machines and accessories for various types of movement and activity) and indoor pool area. The only thing taking away from my experience was the amount of younger guests during my stay (which I know cannot be controlled) however lounging in the pool area was not as relaxing and during breakfast there were younger guests open mouthed coughing in the buffet line and touching the utensils so there were just some food items I did not feel comfortable eating. Overall I had a great stay and would definitely stay again, recommend for out of town guests, or to visit for the spa experience alone. Valet was $86 to park overnight as of 4/7 $$$

The lobby soundtrack casually bouncing from Chaka Khan to Aaliyah to Frank Ocean like it's my own curated Spotify playlist. Lighted closet bar racks so you can actually see what you packed. A phone holder next to the magnifying mirror in the bathroom (genius for getting-ready multitasking). Bedside light controls so you're not playing gymnastics to turn off the lamp. Then there's Matthew, the bartender, who improvised a "Matthew Cunningham Special" for me that I think included tequila, ginger beer, grenadine, juice, and somehow made it taste like vacation in a glass. The bell staff and front desk were the kind of friendly that feels genuine, not scripted. Add in cozy slippers, a Nespresso machine, a separate soaking tub, and beautiful DC artwork that reminds you how lucky we are to have this city... and suddenly it's the small details doing the heavy lifting. Luxury isn't always loud. Sometimes it's just really, really thoughtful. And after reading Sheila Johnson's book, I left not just impressed with the hotel, but proud of the woman behind it.

That jetted tub was supposed to earn its keep. The room: genuinely beautiful. The technology: aggressively dated. The vibe: a 90s time capsule, complete with missing doorknobs. There was effort here, but it felt like the hotel was holding its breath, afraid any real investment might trigger the next recession. What they got right: The bellhops were fantastic. Warm, personable, fun. Truly the highlight. Most staff we interacted with were polite and willing to help, which made the gaps elsewhere even more confusing. What they got wrong (beyond the dated room and tech): For a hotel that loudly advertises luxury service, the customer experience fell flat. Outside of the arrival bowl of fruit, nothing felt elevated. Night two, we ordered pizza and planned a cozy Home Alone movie night. The technology made streaming impossible. Fine, cable it is. We called the concierge and asked for two plates. Just two. The answer was a flat no. We were told to walk down to the lobby restaurant and see if they might have plates "to spare." I'm sorry, what? The next morning, room service arrived... with someone else's order. It was corrected, but for a luxury hotel, that kind of miss is surprising. Housekeeping came through, but only halfway. The coffee and minibar were never restocked. In a suite. At a luxury hotel. This is table stakes. At 9:30 PM we stopped by the lobby circle bar. It was immediately clear the bartenders did not want to be there. I get it, service work is hard. Still, opening our interaction by warning us about last call at 11 set a strange tone. By 10:00, one bartender disappeared for 45 minutes. No refills. No check-in. No bill. Breaks are important. Coverage is also important, especially when you're selling a premium experience. Beyond the bellhops, much of the staff felt irritated to be present. Front desk to concierge, the energy was less "historic luxury hotel" and more "counting down the minutes." The hotel was also clearly prioritizing weekend tea and brunch revenue, to the point that the historic lobby was clogged with extra tables and largely unusable for actual hotel guests. Bottom line: this was not a luxury experience, and I would not recommend it. I'm only posting this publicly because I reached out directly to hotel management and never received a response. At that point, a review feels necessary.
