Top McPherson Square Hotel Reviews

The Architect

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, old style boutique hotel. Easy walk to the museums and close to a good train route to some other attractions like the Arlington Cemetery and the Washington Nationals Baseball ground. We will definitely stay here again when we are back in town"

Hotel Lombardy

10/10 Excellent

"Loved this boutique hotel! Valets and check in staff were excellent, we loved the atmosphere of the bar, and the restaurant food and service were great. We booked a Superior King room for the July 04 holiday and it was very nice for the two of us. Clean, nicely decorated and the bathroom while on the smaller side was sufficient with a tub/shower stocked with soaps, shampoo and conditioner. Really like that this older gem retains a lot of the original character! A few blocks down 21st street takes you to the Lincoln Memorial and Reflection Pool. Would definitely stay here again!"

Embassy Suites by Hilton Washington D.C. – Convention Center

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location. Very walkable. Room was very clean. Breakfast was fine, although lines very long (we were there the week of July 4th), with no plates at one point and long elevator lines. Regardless, I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend."

Hotel Zena Washington DC

8/10 Good

"There is an automatic charge of $35 for amenities. Even though we were NOT able to use the pool (only amenity) We happened to be here for Fourth of July and were hoping to watch from the pool rooftop area. We were told that you couldn’t see the fireworks from there and therefore we didn’t try. However, we were told later that a party have been scheduled to be up there and in fact, many were able to see the fireworks from there (not hotel guests). Very disappointed, indeed as this is NOT an inexpensive hotel. We got no amenities."
