Pretty big variation in quality of rooms; it is an old retrofitted hotel , so some have large utility enclosures which are remarkably noisy . Complain if you get one.

Glenn Hunt

Super elegant rooms . Great location. Exceedingly pricy breakfast "buffet " consisting of eggs , bacon , sausage , and potatoes . I recommend you go out for breakfast .

Vince T

Seafood salad in the lounge is awesome ... Bar tender needs to buy a book ; valet bell and front desk staff were amazing , friendly , helpful and all about making sure our needs were met.

Cheryl

Just a walk away from DuPont Circle. Staff was ok, didn't make an impression. Room was nice, spacious even though had interior view . Bath products were great & abundant -- love the luxury collection!

Andre Quesnell

Staff is awesome, and the rooms are fantastic. Easy walk to DuPont Circle metro, and extensive dining options close by. Highly recommended.

L.A. Loehr

Good service , DC prices, great beds/bedding, great location.

Ryan Servatius

Starbucks is just out the front door and to the right on the corner of 21st and P St. At end of block.

John Reynolds

Daily parking avoids the hassle, call 10min ahead and they'll have your car ready to go. Super clean hotel , friendly staff

Very nice indeed, but...no free wifi (13 dollars a day and no parking unless you want to pay $40 a day for it...next time more research on ammenities.

Andrea Myers

This place has some of the best customer service! They really take care of their platinum guests. It pays to be loyal!

Monica

Lobby looks like the lobby of a nice apartment building. Hallways upstairs are beautiful as are the rooms. Can't beat Frette robes, bedding and towels.

Jeremy Valeda

Uber if you need to find transportation between 8:15-9:00 or be prepared to listen to the doorman whistle a cab for you for like 15 minutes.

Michael Kelly

Overall room is nice. Entrance light by door is out and air filter is clogged. Around midnight an alarm clock under the bed went off. Have to wonder how long it had been there.

Janna H.

Monday night, happy hour until 7. ALL wines are $5, drafts $3.

Jill Boyle

The fitness room is excellent - refrigerated towels, ear phones, bottled water, and apples all complimentary !

Jaymin Kim

Mostly a fine hotel - I like their bathtub and toiletries. But they charge $12.99 a day for wifi . What century are we in?

Sveta Low

Peter R

Nice bar but it's being renovated right now. Maybe wait six months

Jennifer Adams

The Seafood salad is awesome! In the lounge also available via room service .

Russell Jones

Get the tomato soup and grilled cheese from room service .

Joe B

Had a poor experience. I was put in an incorrect room first and it took management over an hour to correct. Plus they had an attitude about correcting the situation. Rooms are okay but need updating

Janna H.

Wifi is not free outside of the lobby. ????

Debbie Kopinski

Luxury linens and all comfort!

Angela

Thorsten Jaeckel

Sylvia White-Hooks

David

Bring earplugs.

Chris H

Bedding and mattress is amazing. Can't ... Get... Out... Of bed!!!

Mike F

The egg sandwich with blue cheese is pretty awesome

Mark Buensalido

The hallways and rooms are worthy of its ratings. The lobby experience leaves very much to be desired.

Jessie Lebitz

You'd think a hotel this expensive would wash their sheets. Make sure to check for dirty sheets before getting in bed.

Madeline Ke-chung Liu

Corner room are nice and big

Julie Giorgadze

Nice hotel , but not so nice staff

CeCeG

This place is like heaven. Very elegant

Wine Ark

Don't hit front desk after 10pm very rude and unhelpful. Second bed not made up, wouldn't give us our bags, bell boy didn't come and it was after midnight, wife had to argue with rude lady to get them

Nathan Williams

There's a new mayor in town

Michael R

Asked for two connected room, confirmed over the phone and didn't get them upon arrival. Disappointing but staff was making effort to find a solution

Jason Kelliher

Service declining. Two days in a row the room not turned in the afternoon. And one time the room was turned and no towels were left at all.

Jon Nichols

$4 soft drinks with no refill. Crazy. Food is okay, but you can definitely do better elsewhere. Service is marginal at best.

David Futransky

Very disappointed

Scott Slomback

The hamburger in the lounge is excellent. Just watch out for the $7.50 bottle of budlight .
