Top Bethesda Downtown Hotel Reviews

citizenM Washington DC Capitol

10/10 Excellent

"Nice"

Hilton Washington DC Capitol Hill

8/10 Good

"I wish that they provided a microwave in a designated common area. With dining expenses whether purchased at the hotel or elsewhere being so costly, it’s nice to bring back leftovers to reheat. I’m beginning to lean towards boutique hotels that feel more at home like. And offer amenities such as access to a microwave/fridge."

State Plaza Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This property was excellent! We were surprised that it was really like an apartment! It had a kitchen, dining area, living room, bedroom, nice shower, and separate make up area. Very comfortable bed and pillows. The staff was friendly and very helpful! The only drawback was parking…$55 per night in another building."
