Top Upper Northwest Hotel Reviews

The Henley Park Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"A perfect place to stay in DC. My wife and I were extremely happy."

State Plaza Hotel

8/10 Good

"The restaurant was awesome. My husband ordered the Smash Burger with fries which he saved and finished eating in the car on our way back to New Jersey and he enjoyed it immensely. The kitchen and bathroom were both well stocked. We truly loved the hardware in the bathroom. The sink and fixtures in the bathroom impressed us. We rarely see that quality these days. The mirrors and placement of them helped us to see ourselves from various angles. Need I say more! The black out curtains helped us to rest well. AAA+ is our rating. We would have preferred parking on the premises, but around the corner from the hotel was okay. We are seniors. Perhaps asking in the future can help plan parking assignments better. Thank you and all the best to you in your booking process"
