citizenM Washington DC Capitol

10/10 Excellent

"High value at an affordable price. Excellent location."

The Watermark Hotel

8/10 Good

"Responsive staff. Was not able to check in early. Very big room, comfortable bed. If you want to sleep early music on the rooftop golfing stops at 10 to 11pm. Hotel is beautiful but some hotel guests are rude to other guests especially in the elevator and smell like marijuana, which makes for an unpleasant experience. I will not be returning."

Omni Shoreham Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"On my first trip to Washington, DC, almost 70 years ago, I stayed with my family at the Shoreham. This was my first time staying there since then, though I had attended several conferences there during the 45 years I lived in the DC area. I'm so glad I chose the Shoreham. The front desk staff were friendly and helpful. My room was spacious, lovely, and clean, with good lighting, lots of outlets, very nice, comfortable furniture, and terrific bathroom amenities. The water pressure in the shower was probably the best I've ever experienced in a hotel. The housekeeping staff did a great job. All this for a very reasonable price. And, though I really dislike "resort fees," this one actually included a credit at the bar that was enough to get me a light dinner one night. The Shoreham was a great hotel 70 years ago. It still is. And it is in a very convenient location, a block from a Metro station and just a block or two from a number of shops and restaurants. I recommend it highly."

Washington Plaza Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Property was very clean and well maintained, including the room i stayed in. 4 elevators took you from lobby to room and they were very quick. Staff was very polite and helpful. I had breakfast and dinner at the in-house restaurant several times and food was very good snd readonably priced. Would stay here again. Wish it was closer to the museums and memorial monuments, but on next visit i'll be better at using the metro buses. Hotel is about a half hour walk and weather was very hot during my stay. Very pleased with the hotel. The room seemed quiet as well."
