    The Hamilton Hotel is across the street from Franklin Park. Metro is about a block away. Don't confuse this place for The Hamilton Restaurant (about 3 blocks away). The lobby is comfy. The staff are proactive and nice. They led us to areas instead of just pointing where to go. We attended an event in the Schuyler Room. It is a great meeting area. The food looked better than it tasted. It was a sad meal. The salad was mostly lettuce with a few thinly sliced cucumbers and a handful of radishes. The best part of the salad was the lemon vinaigrette. There were two entree choices: Smelly fish or watery rice, masquerading as risotto. Dessert was the best item. The location is conveniently located to downtown DC, shopping and restaurants. You can walk to the White House or mall.

    We had a nice stay at The Hamilton while we visited the museums and monuments. The room was comfortable with a King-sized bed with adequate space to walk around. There were electrical plugs on the base of the lamp on the nightstand, and the desk had a built-in strip with plugs including USB. The bathroom had body wash, shampoo, conditioner, and lotion as well as a hairdryer. There was an iron & ironing board in the closet. Don't confuse the mini-bar with the mini-fridge. The mini-bar has drinks and snacks on the top, which are sensor activated so if you move them, you will be charged. The staff was very nice and the lady who checked us in was very helpful with maps and directions. We had several hours before our flight on check-out day, and they held our luggage for us while we did more touristy things. The hotel is close to the museums. You could walk or take the bus. There's several bus stops across the street and it's about one-and-a-half blocks to the Metro station.

    The website photos are very misleading. Majority of hotel and lobby has a weird smell. Please see the pictures below of Room. Would not recommend.

    Absolute dump! I would stay at this place is the paid me. Rooms are dilapidated, run down and filthy dirty. The vent in the bathroom was filled with visible mold and dust. Disgusting! See the photo. I cannot believe this place hasn't been shut down by the health department.

    I left an item in the room, called immediately, and after a wild goose chase I didn't get it back. The situation was handled unprofessionally and there was poor communication at every level that left a bad taste in my mouth. My experience was truly terrible, and it's ground enough for me to strongly recommend against trusting this hotel with your stay.

    Broken curtain holder

    Absolutely a horrible hotel. First off, the curtain in the bathroom was completely missing. I was completely exposed using the toilet or showering. Second, the bathtub drain was broke. Third, the carpet was disgustingly. Do not stay here.

    The Hamilton Hotel is located in a great spot in Downtown DC. Only blocks from the White House and one block to a Metro station. We chose this hotel as we are big fans of the TV show, Veep, and they have a suite themed after it. The suite contains several props from the show which was very fun for us as fans. The suite consisted of a bedroom, bathroom, living room and entry hallway and was on the upper floor of the hotel. The view was on Franklin Park and the Washington Monument in the distance. During our stay we enjoyed the clean room, beautiful historic look and feel of the hotel, and the location. We had an issue with our tub not draining, but it was fixed quickly once we mentioned it. The room was stocked with fresh towels daily and was clean. Some people need to be reminded what a historic hotel experience can be like and what their expectations need to be. That being said, we enjoyed our time here and would consider it again for future trips.

    So nobody talks about how their is no place to park? And how it's 59$ valet only? I'm just asking…

    There's a great self park garage on the same block - pay ahead of time with SpotHero and spend a fraction of that cost.

    North Hall is a fantastic venue that is located in the heart of D.C., only blocks away from the…read moreU.S. Capitol Building. The brick exterior coupled with the large white-walled interior provided the perfect "blank canvas" to backdrop our event. We hosted nearly 100 people and had plenty of room for a live band and bar. The reason this review earned three stars was because of venue management. An important aspect of North Hall is that they will not let you do any setup prior to the event unless you pay per hour. As an example: our event started at 5pm and we had to pay 500$ more to start setup at 3pm. The real issue arose when we were informed that we could not leave anything in a closet or kitchen in order to make the "day-of" prep easier. Management allowed absolutely nothing from entering or remaining in the space despite there being no event prior to our reception. On a positive note, the two hour setup window provided a testament to how amazing our vendors were; they created a beautiful space with no help from North Hall. The management induced plenty of undue stress by being unclear of what permits were needed for the event. They went on to remind us with little time to prepare. This issue manifested itself one week prior to our wedding day, where our wedding coordinator, my wife, and myself scrambled to get permits for food, alcohol, etc. Overall, North Hall is truly lovely, but future customers should be aware that this venue is fortified by the bureaucracy of Washington D.C. Much like your local trip to the DMV, illogical policies and the lack of regard for the individual reign supreme. Weddings are stressful and emotional, no one should have to deal with the inefficiencies of government and the shortcomings of bureaucrats on their special day.

We chose the North Hall because of the brick exterior, urban feel and large space -- big enough for 200 people. Weddings can be expensive and after an exhausted search we found that the North Hall was the best option. We are so glad we chose to host our wedding reception here! I would recommend this place for any business or social function. A few side notes: The parking was not a problem and the staff was extremely helpful. The bill is in some what of an a la cart format so try to get ALL the fees up front. Be sure to stick to the allotted timeframe so you don't have extra rental hour fees. Go with the bulb lighting! DJ Dan is the contract...they can provide the info.

Mostly rap music. The food was good. Fresh salad, fruit, meats etc. Unlimited mimosas was $25 per person. We could only order 1 flavor at a time, which there was about 8 flavors.
