awesome location in dc. reagan 's attempted assassination was here and the White House correspondents dinner is every year. if you order anything at the restaurant/bar, you can bring it to your room

The Hilton has a high-end sound system that runs an eclectic and interesting mix in their public restrooms . After a 5-day meeting (#AMIA2014), I really appreciated the acoustic oasis from the noise.

Deep Gujral

Don't get this place confused with one of several other Hiltons in DC. A decent stay. Often several parties going on, so ask for a quiet floor if you have business meetings then next morning.

Very nice hotel . Great staff . However walls in rooms are very thin. Someone was smoking next to me and it was all in my room. Room rate was adjusted. Rooms were very modern.

Richard Revilla

Excellent location to explore the city . The pool is a bonus in the warm weather. Parking can be quite pricey so book a room and park rate.

lucy Kemmitz

The home of the White House correspondents dinner . Nice rooms. Great location for DuPont circle and onsite coffee bean! Great hotel staff .

Dean Suhr

Lauriol Plaza - the best Mexican in NW DC - is very close. Exit using theTerrace/Convention level, walk left on "T" two blocks & you are there. There is other food and embassy row over there as well .

Eric Andersen

Looking for the pool or fitness center ? Both are at the very end of the hallway, past FedEx, on the Terrace floor

Carol Lee

Great place to stay when in DC! Convenient location to the Metro and located in one of the best neighborhoods !

Simal Soydan

Nice hotel with large rooms. Has a good location too. A good option to stay if you are in DC.

Christine G

Many complaints about poor water pressure but ours was great. The location is convenient to public transit and shopping centers. The restaurants inside are way more expensive than they're worth tho.

Michael Perry

There is a great little liquor store on the corner... Much better than 19.25 for a double shot of Jack Daniel's! Nice hotel overall though

Evan[Bu]

One of Washington's most historic hotels . The Washington Hilton is the site of the annual White House Correspondents Dinner . Notable hosts include Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Fallon & Conan O'Brien.

The rooms can be tricky to locate so I recommend reading the signs or else you will wander for 20 mins like everyone else who is looking for their room.

Kate Expectations

Really helpful staff . Lovely big rooms , clean , comfortable and excellent location.

Kristina Klausser

Friday nights they have a happy hour with free soda , beer , and wine (they also had really tasty sangria when I was there)!

Michael Michaels

Really great hotel . Try and get a room on the Connecticut Ave side

Tim

Large hotel , but they still mange great service. Pity about the new building obscuring the view of DC

Leslie Carbone

Pretty and comfortable modern hotel , unfortunately forever linked with the attempted assassination of the greatest president of the 20th century.

David B

Great place to stay in DC! Fantastic neighborhood and Hilton quality. Sign up for HHonors program before you come.

Leean Benavides

Exceptional service, especially front desk and housekeeping. The business center is now the Fed Ex Center and internet access is .40 a min. No free access to a computer to check in for flight.

Stephen

Good service great location

Journo Girl

$13 for the convenience of having wifi your room for 24 hrs!!! But free in the lobby. Would've been great if it was free in the room too...

Romney Edwards

The health center (gym ) is above average for a hotel . A good variety of machines and free weights

Christina DeJong

Pay the extra fee to stay on the executive floor. Nice lounge with wifi and snacks !

Bobbie Nelson

Roger Schonfeld

I loved the lobbby bar 's library-style plentiful power outlets for every drinker!

Christie Wooten

Love the pillows . DC is great!

Brian Donohue

Great restaurants selection in walking distance... location is great.

Dean Suhr

RaKu is an awesome sushi place. It's at Q & 19th, just 1 block north of Dupont Circle.

Nancy Luckhurst

Thin walls- - you can hear conversations in next rooms and in halls. Crank AC before bed- comforters are nice but too warm in hot weather and there is no other blanket.

Lizz Walker

Enjoyed weekend stay. Pleasant service at check in and restaurant .

NBC Politics

Home of the White House Correspondents’ Association annual dinner . In 1924, Calvin Coolidge became the first of 14 presidents to attend this annual dinner . Get your wonk on at http://NBCPolitics.com

Lizzy Lou

The walls are thin, I can hear the tv next door. The water pressure is lacking. BUT the service has been great, it's a great location, lots going in area.

Sam Pilkenton

Valet parking is expensive !! $22 before tip for an hour and a half! Save yourself some cash and use public parking and walk a bit if just there for a conference , etc.

mike labella

Hang out in the lobby.. Such a mix of pompous sales folk and folks pretending to be more important than they really are

dawn bricker

Love the new WCR hotel ! The balcony/deck area is a great place to network and view the city !

Chris Hydrick

Don't plan to have large group functions here. Our bus tour had to wait on the curb. Everything had to be moved outside, including serving bag lunches on the ground because we couldn't use the tables.

Brian Williams

Hotel with a great location but in need of a major renovation. The carpet, walls, room furniture are all showing their age.

Nicole Raslich

Nice rooms, pretty hotel and good staff . Walls are very thin.

Donyale S

For real though... The porters are just a little over zealous at the cab stand!!

President Obama spoke on the role of faith in his life and in society during the National Prayer Breakfast . Read more

Theo Bell

Fight Night is held here each year.

Sean

Corner rooms offer a great view of DuPont and other parts of the city

Paddy

Had a 24 hour stay here. On the surface it's a typical Hilton property. We had no running water and a non-flushing toilet . Bad but they agreed to comp the room as a result so overall no complaints.

Margaux

Their "self parking " is a robbery.. $36 for overnight parking , should be free!!

N Martin

Central location and great staff

Brian Copeland

If you're walking or biking to Dupont, use 19th instead for safety's sake. Exit the hotel on the Terrace Level and turn left.

Ben Stuart

The people here are nice and friendly . They bring southern hospitality to the district.
