OK hotel in a good location for seeing the main tourist attractions. Directly opposite an underground station (McPherson Square).

Hotel room was fine with the usual facilities. Staff left a lot to be desired. When we checked in no-one told us what time breakfast was or any other information - we had to ask all the time.

Just down the road is a nice little "deli" which we used for breakfast. Fine if you want a cheap and cheerful buffet style breakfast, although it doesn't open on Sundays.

For nice restaurants we suggest travelling to Georgetown. Although we found some nice places in Washington (Matchbox was very nice - near Chinatown) we thought there was more choice in Georgetown - unfortunately we didn't discover this until the last day!!

Check out was even worse than check in! We had asked for a taxi to take us to Dulles at 6.00am and were told this was not a problem. The night before when we reconfirmed this had been arranged, the porter told us to ask for him in the morning.

The following morning when we left , there was a limousine waiting outside and the porter took our cases outside. When we got outside there was also a taxi waiting and the driver knew our surname. Both drivers then started arguing over who should be taking us, at which point the porter put luggage into the limo. Not wanting any confrontation we got in and went but refused to pay any tip when we got to the airport.

Not the best end to a very enjoyable stay in Washington.

Stayed here for an extended weekend June 13-16. I was with my siter-in-law and two young neices (ages 8 and 10). This hotel has great location. I've stayed at others in the DC area and have now learned to confine myself to downtown only. The rooms are nice, nothing speacial. If you stay, get the breakfast option - the meal is wonderful - not the typical continental fare but everything from grits and oatmeal to made-to -order omlettes, french toast, Belgain waffles and lots of fresh fruit. Fantastic deal!
The staff were superb. Everyone from the front desk to the concierge, the waitstaff, the housekkepers, absolutely everyone greeted us with a smile and went out of their way to make us feel important.
When we booked, I had originally booked only one room, but had second thoughts the Monday before we left. I was able to get another room but told it would be on another flor, and was just a king bed rather than two doubles. When we arrived at the hotel, the gentleman at the desk saw to it that we had adjoining rooms, each with two beds. We could not have asked for better service. The whole stay was stress-free and lovely.
Metro station located right across the street made transportation easy.
The only drawbacks were the small size of the pool (but who goes to DC to swim anyway?) and Franklin Square across the street is overrun with homeless folks. Typical of DC, I know, and not the hotel's fault, but just be prepared for that.

We just returned from a great stay at the Hilton Garden Inn in Washington DC. We arrived on Friday 5/30. Check in was easy and efficient, the staff was friendly & courteous. This hotel is very nicely located. We walked pretty much every where we went. Easy walk to the National mall, White house (we passed by this every time we went out) spy museum and the brand new crime & punishment museum. Lots of places to eat nearby. We got a full american breakfast included in our packaged (~$250 a night) for all four of us. (Breakfast was great, made to order eggs, freshly made waffles, etc etc)
Room had a small fridge, microwave and coffee machine with a flat screen TV.

The only complaints. Double size beds, which for my family is too small and they air conditioner was loud (in my opinion). I would stay here again with just my husband.

A new, clean and comfortable hotel with a good location a couple blocks away from the White House. A little farther to the Mall, which will put you at the Washington Memorial, but is still an easy stroll. The Metro is across the street from the hotel which was very convenient for us and took us wherever we needed to go.

We had a weekend rate and easily filled my room request when we got in at 11:00PM. Breakfast was okay, but kind of pricey. I would absolutely stay again.
