Harborside Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The Staff were friendly, courteous, professional and helpful. The hotel was in close proximity to shopping and eateries. The bed/mattress was ideal for me which made for peaceful sleep."

The Henley Park Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I got in late and I appreciated there was someone at the door to help me. I checked in fast and was given an impecable room on a top floor away from noise. Loved my room 603. My experience was accentuated by the kind and cheerful staff there, I spoke to 3 of the lobby people during my stay. I even bought the bath robe, a souvenir from one of the most memorable experiences during my hectic work travels. The bar has been raised :) thank you"

Hilton Washington DC National Mall The Wharf

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was clean, rooms and beds were very comfortable. The A/C in our room wasn’t working properly, but was fixed within 30 minutes once we notified the front desk. Check in/out was fast and easy, and valet service was fast and easy as well. Overall, we had a great stay!"

City Express by Marriott Washington, DC Northeast

4/10 Poor

"The breakfast was very small had very little options. Many of the front desk staff were very rude and mean and had no idea what they were doing, there were ants in the room. It was a pretty bad section of town. Overall I was very disappointed especially for the price and the fact that it was a Marriott. Up until now I had always had a very good experience with Marriott this was definitely a disappointment."

Arlo Washington DC

10/10 Excellent

"The beds were comfortable, the room was clean, the elevator system is very efficient, and the location is great. We were able to easily walk to the sites and restaurants. Our room was quite small. The parking garage is less than a block from the hotel, was clean and secure, and the parking rate was discounted because we stayed at the hotel. For the high cost of the stay, breakfast should be included."
